    I meant enable an interface. Here' s a little more explanation: When you log into your unit and click on the Network tab under System you will see a list of your interfaces (DMZ, Internal, modem, Wan1, etc.) Well you can enable and disable those interfaces that you are not using. I was wondering how to enable one of these interfaces using the CLI.
