OnChangeAction will not recognise LAN IP change

Post by virtual-adam »

Hi,

The OnChangeAction command will not recognise a change in the LAN IP anymore, was using this to trigger a refresh of the displayed WAN IP when a VPN was activated. Got it to work anyway by using DNS_SERVER instead of IP_ADDRESS.

Wanted to make someone aware of this as it needs fixing. Open the 'VPN IP Refresh' file in the skin folder after you install to see what I mean, added some comments in there.

Thanks!

You need DynamicVariables=1 on the SysInfo measure for it to detect and react to a change in the value for "Best".
