How to enable physical ports using cli?

Hello, we have a sophos xg firewall that the LAN port is destroyed. We cannot connect through it. But we can only configure the LAN and WAN port? What would be the beat solution for this. Eth 4 to 8 cannot be configured nor give dhcp addresses.

  • No, I can't access the GUI because we reimage the firewall and it has been reset to its default. Only the Eth 0 and eth 1 can be configured. eth 4 to 8 won't release IPs nor don't know If that port has a default IP because we can't view the interfaces. We cannot use the SSH then. 

  • Hello Fluffy,

    Thank you for the follow-up.

    If you factory reset the XG, eth0 should be configured with the IP 172.16.16.16, maybe you can't access via SSH, but can you console in and contact a Monitor to the back of the device, that way you could see and try to configure eth0 eth1.
