      Ok only the USB controller not recognised:

      none0@pci0:0:11:0:      class=0x028000 card=0xa4091106 chip=0xa4091106 rev=0x10 hdr=0x00
          vendor     = 'VIA Technologies, Inc.'
          device     = 'VX855/VX875 USB Device Controller'
          class      = network
      

      Probably not important, I also see that.

      So you are connected to port1 and the 4 stacked ports labelled 2 and 3 show no link, correct?

      Try this. At the command line run:
      cu -l /dev/cuau1 -s 19600
      Hit return see if you can see the switch interface.
      To escape the cu session hit return then type ~~.

        >cu -l /dev/cuau1 -s 19600
        Connected

              There is no driver that recognises it, that;s the device shown as none0 in the pciconf output.

              Ok I typo'd the baud rate! Try: cu -l /dev/cuau1 -s 19200

              If there's still nothing look in /dev to see if there are other serial ports.

                  Hmm, it's at 9600 on the U70: https://forum.netgate.com/post/882959

                  Try: cu -l /dev/cuau1 -s 9600

                      Hmm, you might try some other common board rates. I expect cuaU0 to be the front panel com port, but they might be swapped for some reason.

                      It could be that the switch in the smallest unit doesn't have a console to access. Can you see what the switch chip is on the board?

                        On the board I see near the RJ45 connectors a chip named "LB G4P109 LF"
                        My friend google said that it's a "quad port network transformer" ☺

                          Hmm probably under that small heatsink unfortunately.

                          What baud rates did you try?

                          Any BIOS options that might suggest something?

                          Can you boot the original OS and check the boot messages?

                            I tried 4800 -> 115200 baudrate.

                            I will look in the bios tomorow.

                            OUPS ! Unfortunately I have written pfsense over the old OS

                                  I took the heatsink off ( I already tear up the warranty label :D)

                                  It's an Atheros AR8328

                                  --> it's not like in the command result where it is written intel --> I need to install a new driver ?

                                    Hmm, OK.
                                    It looks like the Atheros AR8328 does not have a serial interface that could be used to configure it unlike the other Netasq devices. That makes things immediately 100x more difficult as you need to configure it via MDC/MDIO or
                                    via the config eprom directly.
                                    Netasq/Stormshield OS is built on FreeBSD though I believe, they have contributed stuff back into the base. Unfortunately though I don't see the 8328 as supported:
                                    https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/tree/master/sys/dev/etherswitch/arswitch
                                    Unless it's so similar to the 8327 it might be able to use that. We are still talking about significant work to get it running.

                                    One thing you might try here is Installing OpenWRT which does have support AR8328 switch. Even if just as a test.

                                    Kind of curious what those jumpers might do but it's hard to recommend you change them without knowing. Are they labelled?

                                      How can I try that ?

                                      I did it PM.
                                      eth1 is a Broadcomm, but down. nothing appends when i plug a cable in one of 4 ports.
                                      I don't know what test I have to do.

                                        So you did install OpenWRT already?

                                        I'm not sure exactly what you were seeing as Broadcom. The two NIC would still be Intel. It may have created a bridge as OpenWRT usually does.
                                        You probably have to install the correct switch control modules for it to see and recognise the switch. Not entirely sire what those might be though...
