    Why I need passive mode on multiple interfaces is I have like two (but this can be more) interfaces that have no need to to be active (4G and 5G networks) but also need to by in a trunk due to some functions not work unless there are in a trunk like DDNS.

    Hi @PeterUK,

    Thank you for your feedback and for explaining your use case.

    After evaluation, while our current trunk functionality already covers the majority of user scenarios, we regret to inform you that supporting multiple passive interfaces on a trunk is not feasible at this time due to a design limitation. Therefore, we will be maintaining support for only one passive interface per trunk.

    We appreciate your understanding!
