Wanting to change the physical LAN interface to a WAN port for SFP use

[clokwork]

Would this be as easy as changing the Interface assignment network port (in the dropdown menu) of the LAN to the appropriate interface/MAC under Interfaces -> Interface Assignments?

@clokwork Yes, that is exactly the procedure needed. However - be aware that you will loose connection to your pfsense if you are changing the interface on which you are connected. So it’s always a good procedure to have the console cable ready, and checked that your access to console is working

@keyser Thanks for that. Time to get the console cable ready!
