Have multiple NICs on my Unit -
https://protectli.com/protectli-4-port/

FW1 version - older but works fine..

just needed another LAN Port have have one on the unit but the bridge setup is a little complicated.
thought I bridged LAN2 - no interface with LAN1 - and no go - devices plugged into LAN2 don't work -
it acts like LAN 2 is a segment - but that doesn't appear to be a default configuration, but might be.

Simple question -
Is it possible to bridge OPT1 AND OPT2 TO default OPT1 vlan (LAN1 and LAN2 on LAN1 vlan1)

logically just make those two ports a switch and then from it what it looks like there would then be a virtual vlan device for vlan1 that takes the IP and routing over vs the physical interface?
