Well thanks to everyone to help and talk about it with my to solve that open questions. The point is that i cant see a reason why i should use 2 Ports on the inertnal switch (imho its a waste). One from LAN Interface and one from OPTx Nic to the same switch. I need a way to allow traffic between WAN (connected physical to our router) and one of the Interfaces that is connected to our internal Switch. AFAIK i only can use brigde for the 2 Interfaces. I am wrong with that? Looks like i am forced to waste 2 ports on our swtich to use bridgeing. Very stupid :-( Maybe anyone here know a other solution? With routing settings or anything else to allow that LAN/WAN interfaces accept traffic between the interfaces?
