Hi,
it is very simple. You can just setup a bridge. Or if you do not
want to combine WLAN and LAN, you can just use the internal switch
without configuration.
So it depends. How many ports you want to use? All ports?
If you want to use all ports as a simple switch simply use following
in your /etc/network/interfaces:
auto @FWRT_INTERFACE@
iface @FWRT_INTERFACE@ inet static
switch-ports 0 1 2 3 4 5*
address @FWRT_ADDRESS@
netmask @FWRT_NETMASK@
gateway @FWRT_GATEWAY@
Replace the other variables with stuff that makes sense.
So you are able to still access the switch via the configured IP
addresse.
bye
