And yes, that's not a typo for all those duplicate IPs on all those interfaces shown below in /etc/config/network.  It was the best way to make it work.  OpenWRT doesn't have an issue with it, plus as noted, there's only one MAC Address on the device, so it really doesn't matter.
And yes there are duplicate IP Addresses, and that's not a typo for all those duplicate IPs on all those interfaces shown below in /etc/config/network.  It was the best way to make it work without the confusion of all the other examples out there with multiple IPs.  OpenWRT doesn't have an issue with it, plus as noted, there's only one MAC Address on the device, so it really doesn't matter.
