XG 125 - where are my physical ports in admin?

I support a small biz am struggling my way through an XG125 (SFOS 17.1.3 MR-3) setup that is replacing an old SonicWall. I am trying to add our secondary WAN to create a fail-over WAN.

 

Articles such as https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/123096 and https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/132792 show images of ports that mine does not appear to have. I have plugged the secondary WAN into port 4 and am expecting to see at least an unbound port, yes? Instead I get:

How do I make port 4 show up? All I see is "Add Interface" with Bridge, VLAN, etc.

Is there a very basic manual I should be referring to? At this point I feel I have jumped into the deep in from the Sonicwall and maybe we bit off more firewall than we need.

  • The point is. You build up a bridge. Properly in the wizard. There is a point in the XG wizard, where you can select all ports to bind them into one bridge (br0). Per default the wizard will select all interfaces and bridge them together. This is explained in the wizard in some kind of plain text above. 

    Now you have to "unbind" the interfaces out of the bridge. Basically edit br0 and "delete" all interfaces, you do not want in the bridge.
