Change default VLAN configuration

I am looking for a replacement for my Asus RT-AC66U and my 2 finalists are Turris Omnia and Mikrotik RB4011iGS+RM. The main reason for these 2 choices is their security/frequent updates, number of ports and their switch configuration.

When I look at the default Omnia VLAN configuration, I see it is set-up as a single bridged switch with 2 VLANs. I would like my switch setup to be similar but use a single “VLAN” with all LAN ports + eth0 and eth2 in the same switch (to have 2 Gbps between switch and CPU). I’m sure this is possible and I was wondering if I could achieve this simply by changing the default config to enable_vlan ‘0’ and removing the last 2 sections below

config switch
option name ‘switch0’
option reset ‘1’
option enable_vlan '1’

config switch_vlan
_ option device ‘switch0’_
_ option vlan ‘1’_
_ option ports ‘0 1 2 3 5’_
_ _
config switch_vlan
_ option device ‘switch0’_
_ option vlan ‘2’_
_ option ports ‘4 6’_

Or do I still need to create a switch config like:
config switch_all
option device ‘switch0’
option ports ‘0 1 2 3 4 5 6’

Or can it be done only in the first block?
config switch
option name ‘switch0’
option reset ‘1’
option enable_vlan ‘0’
option ports ‘0 1 2 3 4 5 6’

Side question: can this be done from the Web GUI or only through CLI?

Thank you in advance

Yes, from the openWRT frontend LuCI.


If tagging is not required the VLAN functionality could be turned off. Else probably, if LAN upstream does not require a tag from the client

config switch
option name ‘switch0’
option reset ‘1’
option enable_vlan ‘1’
option ports ‘0 1 2 3 4 5t 6t’
