The UI/design for Access Points that have ethernet ports is, in my opinion at best strange at worst completely wrong and unintuitve.

Suggestion:

Introduce a "virtual switch" device type, or reuse the switch interface, access points with > 1 access ports should have its ports displayed as a a limited functionality switch, where one can for example select the network each port is supposed to be in by name and not by Vlan id, exposing other basic functions if supported by the AP 's switch chip.. operating under the assumption this are only access ports features could be limited to vlan-id, speed negotiation..shall show the regular colors to see iof something is plugged in, at what speed.. and that's pretty much it.
