WAN external IP

[danlo315]

Hello,

Prior to the new version dropping there is a way to show external IP for the WAN interfaces. Would it be possible to bring that back?

Prior sensor value: binary_sensor.edgeos_interface_eth[x]_wan.Address

To follow up on why I'm using this: I utilize the edgerouter for WAN failover and I look at the external IP for the entire network, compared to each WAN to see if I'm on primary vs backup.

I will add it in the next release as attribute related to the specific interface

new release v2.0.4 with the FR please review the switch of the status interface, it should include the address, please update how it works for you

@elad-bar - just refreshed to 2.0.4 and the addresses attribute is now attached to the status entity. This is great, thank you so much!

released v2.0.5, since enabling / disabling the interface requires admin role, for intergations logged in with operator role based user, there will be a binary sensor instead of switch with the same details

Question: I'm starting to see the IP address rotate between DHCP and actual IP addresses frequently.

Addresses dhcp

Not sure I understand, to which interface? Do you have debug data files for both scenarios? If not, as part of the integration there is a switch of store debug data, It will create 3 files begins with the pattern edgeos.{entry_id}.debug.{ws|api|ha}.json. These files located under .storage directory in the ha config directory.

Please post the relevant data from each of the 3 files

Thanks
