We found that ether2 on a newly installed RB4011 was "not working". Investigation revealed it was not delivering an IP address via DHCP. Further investigation revealed that unlike every other port 3-10 in the bridge, ether2 was disabled. Since the DHCP server is on the bridge interface, devices connected to ether2 are not getting served. /interface bridge port add bridge=bridge1 disabled=yes interface=ether2 add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether3 [etc] I didn't configure this unit. I'm a bit mystified as to why it would have been configured like that. My question is whether I can safely just enable it. I can't see why not, but as it is now in production I thought I would ask the brains trust...
