Yes, sure can explain it : - )
So reason why I said skip the part I mentioned was because guy Im working with, we decided to keep mgmt IP as default for now, 192.168.1.1 and default gateway use different IP, just so we can connect externally from their core router, ie update jumbo hotfix to 99, as fws came with R81.20, thats why...hope it makes sense.
Then, once we do cutover next Tuesday night, we will configure those IPs to match right ones before we plug them into the network.
As far as MVC, its applicable regardless minor or major version. As @emmap brilliantly explained in the post I linked, which I honestly had no clue about either previously, you only enable mvc on higher member version, meaning one you are upgrading.
Its also explained below.
