        To separate out Eth8 and use it like a discrete interface you need to add a new VLAN for, logg0.4092 for example, and then configure the switch to pass that. That is how Eth1 is configured separately from the other ports.

        See: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/xg-7100-1u/configuring-the-switch-ports.html
