Dear friends, I have a pair of XT8 and they are so far so good. I have 1 Gbps internet connection and recently I bought a NAS of 2.5GbE port. However, the 2.5GbE port of XT8 is a WAN port and all the LAN ports are 1GbE. I know I can use the 2.5GbE WAN port of the node as LAN and it is working fine. I am wondering if there will be any way that I can do the same thing to the router, and swap the WAN port and LAN in the router side such as creating a routing table using SSH. If I can do so, I can make good use of the both 2.5GbE and 1GbE ports.

Thank you.
