Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe.

After installing flux, FluxOS is starting and the benchmarks are running. When they are done i must run the toolbox again to configure UPNP what restarts the benchmarks again.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to add the question "Would you like to configure UPNP?" after the question about setting up notifications.
This way, people are running the benchmarks once instead of twice.

Priority

Low (Nice-to-have)

Is this something you would be keen to implement

No

You can run option 6 from the multitoolbox to create an install config file. If you run this option before running option 2 it will setup UPnP for you during the install.

As an added bonus, it won't ask you any questions at all during the normal install with option 2 because it will pull all of the needed information for the file created when you ran option 6.

Thank you for your reply. It is a nice workaround indeed.

But not the solution in my point of view. Because with this reasoning, the other questions about the updates and notifications should also not be displayed since this also could be set in the config file.

When running option 6 before you run option 2, it will bypass all of those questions during the actual install.

This is the recommended way of installing the nodes, especially with UPnP. Generating an install conf file also makes it much easier if you need to reinstall for any reason down the road.

Yes, thank you.

Still, it would be nice to have for new node operators. Those who want to install two cumulus nodes for example and doesn't know your solution.
