FS#624 - Wrong default WAN interface on SQM & BCP38 packages
User who did this - moeller0 (moeller0)

----------
Speaking to the sqm-scripts issue only: the user will need to configure sqm-scripts in any way before it will become useful, so the defaults are in no wat guaranteed to lead to a rationally working shaper instance. While it sure seems nice to always propose the WAN interface by default, this is harder than it seems as this is a policy question the local administrator needs to answer, and it is totally valid to instantiate sqm-scripits on LAN interfaces as well as WAN interfaces (and you can have multiple instances on different interfaces). So I humbly propose to leave things as they are right now (well, it might be a good idea to homogenize the ethN interface used for WAN, but I believe that actually happenened and eth1 was selected, so I am a bit confuzed by this report).
