Hey everyone,
Is there any way to set the LAN interfaces to a down state (shutdown)? Looking to shutdown 3 of my 4 LAN ports so no one can just plug into one of them. I've search all over but have been able to find anything that works. Any help/info would be greatly appreciated. TIA _________________ Router: R7800

Awesome!! Thank you so much for this Now I do remember reading something a while ago about how the port numbers are flipped compared to how they are listed in CLI. Is that correct? _________________ Router: R7800

So I tried this and had no effect. Ports were still up and was able to get an IP and connect to the internet. Not sure what I did wrong. I essentially want LAN ports 2-4 to be dead to where if someone connects to them using an ethernet cable, they get no IP address. Is there something I'm doing wrong? _________________ Router: R7800
