 Note that it may be unsafe to enable umdns on ''wan'' interface.
+Note that ''%%network list%%'' argument refers to interface name under ''%%/etc/config/network%%'' not the device name shown by ''%%ifconfig%%''. Test if you using the right name with ''%%ifstatus%%''. So if you have something like ''%%config interface 'vlan1'%%'' in your ''%%/etc/config/network%%'', use ''%%vlan1%%''.
