netgate SG-1100 port names causes pfatt.sh to fail

[snagginst33l]

The SG-1100 has virtualized ports mvneta0.4090, etc. that are not usable as is in pfatt.sh compared to the "normal" eth0, igb0, etc.. Very slow going trying to figure out how to modify the script. Has anyone pointers how to get over this hump?

I had tried ifconfig'ing the ports and pfatt.sh runs and ngeth0 gets created. Unfortunately, when the SG-1100 reboots, it trashes the changes and resets all the ports back to the default mcvneta0.409x.

Thank you in advance.

you have to unbind the virtual interfaces into physical interfaces, netgate has docs on it here

Won't work. You need three network interfaces and that sg-1100 only has one network interface (labeled mvneta0 ) routed to a network switch. See this graphic https://www.netgate.com/assets/img/blog/2019/hw_architecture.jpg
