      I have a netgate SG-4860 pfsense 22.05 I am migrating to new hardware and pfsense CE 2.7.0. I would like to utilize the additional NIC in the new hardware but when I run through "Assign Interfaces" it assigns OPT2 to "igc3" instead of "ovpns1"

      So here is the OLD setup:

      *** Welcome to Netgate pfSense Plus 22.05-RELEASE (amd64) on pfNG4860 ***
      
       WWAN (wan)   -> igb1       -> v4: 7x.xxx.xxx.xxx/27
       LAN (lan)       -> igb0       -> v4: 192.168.2.254/24
       CWAN (opt1) -> igb2       -> v4: 5y.yyy.yyy.yyy/30
       VPNREMOTEACCESS (opt2) -> ovpns1     ->
      
      

      What is the best way to fix this?
      Here is the new config, which I would guess breaks VPN:

      *** Welcome to Netgate pfSense Plus 22.05-RELEASE (amd64) on pfVP ***
      
       WWAN (wan)   -> igc0       -> v4: 7x.xxx.xxx.xxx/27
       LAN (lan)       -> igc1       -> v4: 192.168.2.254/24
       CWAN (opt1) -> igc2       -> v4: 5y.yyy.yyy.yyy/30
       VPNREMOTEACCESS (opt2) -> igc3     ->
       OPT3 (opt3) -> igc4     ->
       OPT4  (opt4) -> igc5     ->

        You can edit the config directly and swap out the igb NICs for igc. Then import it; opt2 will still be ovpns1. Then add the additional igc interfaces.
