Please let those of us with 1g or less Internet make better use of this ER8411 on our internal LANs.
Let us configure BOTH 10gbps ports as LAN (with full 802.3ad LACP features support to combine bandwidth)
and the 1gbps WAN/LAN port can be the WAN.
I wouldn't even mind if you made a ER8412 that swaps the 1gWAN/LAN and the 10gWAN ports giving us a 1gWAN*only* and 2x 10gWAN/LAN ports.
You can even take all the other 1g LAN*only* ports away if you need to as far as i'm concerned...
Either that or i have move all my inter-vlan routing w/ACLs to a fancier switch and reconfigure gw on everything to point at the switch instead of the FW...
Course, if i did do that i'd only be buying a new sw and could keep my current 1g firewall...
hmm... I'll keep shopping for now...

Thank you for the response a hardware limitation is very understandable. I can see a use case for for a 2 10ge Wan and 2 10ge swappable even less 1gbe ethernets as most would attach a cost effective switch anyways.
