Hello!! :D
I am waiting to receive a mini PC with four 2.5-gigabit ports, which will replace the one I currently have with two 1-gigabit ports.

I use the mini PC to virtualize a Sophos firewall. Currently, I have the first port configured as a Linux Bridge (vmbr1) + Network Device (enp3s0) for the WAN, and the second port as a Linux Bridge (vmbr0) + Network Device (enp2s0) for the LAN with IP 192.168.3.7/24.

On the new mini PC, I want to reserve one of the ports for the WAN and the other three remaining ports for the LAN, considering:
- I need them on the same network (192.168.3.0/24).
- I am not going to configure any additional VLAN.

I don't know how to configure the network interfaces in Proxmox so that Sophos detects them and I can add them to my network.

Should I perhaps create multiple Linux Bridge + Network Device without adding IPs?

Kind regards!! :D
