If I understood it correctly, and what you want is to use a "full meshed scenario" where each Nokia has connected the same network to 2 swtiches at the same time for high reselience, Another opton you have with Nokia, is to use 3.8.1 and use 802.3AD (A.K.A. Etherchannel or Link Agreggation)
The beauty of it, is that you have 2 physical interfaces that look as 1 interface to both the firewall and the IPSO operating system. If the interface or the switch is gone for any reason, you still have both Nokia gateways working... beautiful... You've detailed documentation in IPSO 3.8.1 documentation. Also, you would need to establish te Etherchannel recognition. CIsco's web site has good information on it. I tested it with Catalyst 2900 switches running IOS 12 something, and Nokia IP380 hardware with IPSO 3.8.1 - like a charm...
