configure 10g port as replacement for current 2.5g lan port with current ip address scheme
-
It's certainly possible to do from the GUI. It's trivial if you're connected via a different interface at the time. Perhaps allow access via the WAN temporarily for example.

@stephenw10 Thank you for the help. I am going to try the console cable way.
-
So I was able to change the port form the console and thought all was working but then about an hour later internet stopped. Checked router and dhcp was stopped for both lan and vlan and it wouldn’t start. Nothing was written to the logs either so it’s like they weren’t configured anymore. Does something need to be done with them when changing the interface assignment?
-
If you simply re-assigned the interfaces you would not. If you renumbered them then, yes, you would need to edit the configured DHCP servers on those interfaces to be in the correct subnet and they will not start until you do so.

@stephenw10 I did just reassign the one that is 10g for the original lan port. I am going to try it again, maybe I missed something.
-
Hmm, well if you have access to the gui still just check the dhcp server settings. If you resave the dhcp on the interface where it's failing it will show an error if there's a conflict.

@stephenw10 will do, thank you

I got it to work. It was the WireGuard interface causing the dhcp problem . I changed Mtu to 9000 and enabled jumbo frames on switch . Are there any other settings to get max performance I should change or enable?
-
Not really. I assume this is a 6100? It is tuned pretty well out of the box. If you were doing something unusual there are a few things you could set but it's probably fine as it is.
