Title: How tu use other ports on DEC740
Post by: vincen on September 01, 2022, 11:15:09 AM
Hi

I have a little issue I'm unable to find solution by myself. I have a DEC 740 with following configuration:
one SFP+ goes at fiber of my ISP
one SFP+ is downlink to my main switch.

I'd like to use also the 3 Ethernet ports to plug additional devices. During initial wizard I have selected these ports as additional LAN ports but they are not working.
Last time I tried to configure them using the Web GUI I locked myself out of opnsens and had to reset it. What did I miss to get these ports working as the downling SFP port and allows me to connect additional LAN devices ?

Thanks for help,

Vincèn

You need to set up a LAN bridge as documented here:
