Hello,
I just picked up a CCR1016-12S-1S+ to upgrade to from a older router of ours, I’m unable to find the Master port setting and all ports are currently running as “not slave” so no traffic is passing through the SFP1 port, any way around this?
CCR1016 is a “pure” CCR, all ether/SFP ports are directly connected to the CPU, no switch chips.
In CCR lineup, only CCR1009 contains a switch chip, with half the ports on the switch chip, and the other half directly connected to the CPU.
Ah, the bridge all ports option would be the solution for this? As I need sfp1 as the uplink, sfp2 and sfp3 as downlink to 2 switches
Thanks! 
You will need to create bridges according to your needs; if you bridge all the ports you will be basically creating a switch.
Is that router going to route or to act as a switch? a mix?
It’ll be a mix, switching and routing, so if I bridge all ports and add the routes as normal (via addresses/routing), would it work? with SFP1 as master/uplink from ISP and SFP2 & SFP3 as the downlinks
No, you should leave internet uplink unbridged, and also SFP2 & 3 unless you’re going to run a common PPPoE or DHCP server on them, in that case, bridge SFP2&3 as both will need to be on the same network segment.
When you bridge two ports, you’re creating a (software) switch, so bridge ports only if you want to transparently bridge those networks.
So I create 1x bridge for SFP2 and SFP3 and that should do it? Any additional config needed?
Yes, that’s all needed.
Only thing you should bear in mind is any services, ips, should be applied on the bridge interface itself, not on its ports.
If you’re going to use PPPoE best practice from a security point of view is not having any IPs assigned to it.
