    Did you get any error message when you typed the commands? It should complain you if your forgot to remove any references.

    It's been quite some some since interface mode has become the default. But if I remember correctly, with the default config of older 5.2.x, you need to remove the default policy, and remove dhcp server and interface IP from lan interface, then remove the default dhcp server config referring lan interface. Then change the mode and reboot.

    Having deleted references to the internal interface I believe you need to delete the virtual switch. Our process used to get a new unit ready to join a cluster is as follows, you may not need to change the wan port modes:

    config firewall policy

        delete 1

    end

    config system dhcp server

        delete 1

    end

    config system virtual-switch

        delete internal

    end

    config system global

        set switch-controller disable

    end

    config system interface

        edit wan1

            set mode static

        next

        edit wan2

            set mode static

        next

    end
