And what append if you don't need or don't want Vlans ?
You don't need to use VLAN's but if you want to assign each of the 8 ports as individual ports you can do so, by using VLAN's.

Exactly what i don't want !

I'd return it to the supplier if the wording on their web page doesn't state they're switch ports, the Netgate page states switch.
How many non switch port interfaces do you need ?
-
Six at least. Seven if we want be comfortable.
-
FYI, you can return the device if it's under 30 days since purchase.

Thanks . Is the 8860 1U available again ?

I'd buy a 4 port Intel card for the XG-7100
-
No, SG-8860 1U has reached End of Sale. We are working on more appliances but it won't be immediate. Or add a 4 port upgrade card as NogBadTheBad suggests.
-
Ok, we probably add a card with four ports.
Aa appliance such as 88601u is really missing. -
Finally we return the device. And looking for an other device.
-
i've considered purchasing a 7100 but its extremely overkill for me. I am eagerly waiting for new devices to come available.
so i understand the issue before it was returned
you don't like the fact that port 1 is the wan. and you only have 7 ports remaining after that?
-
I don't like lan and wan in a LAGG only separated by vlans, and the fact others ports are not physically separated but just a switch with only vlans option.

Luckily the world doesn't revolve around you, so what you like or dislike is not that important. :P

The point is to delivered the required security level to our cistomers.
