software version on custom appliance, network card order

Hi

Tried to install Sophos sw version on a custom appliance, it did install but the problem is it assigned Port1 to a 10Gb add-on card instead of on-board NICs.

I realized that card was given lower PCIe bus number by the system (it sits on Bus #1, the onboard NICs are on Bus #2-8...)

So Sophos assigned Port1-4 to add-on 10Gb card and Port5-10 to 1Gb onboard NICs.

Is there anyway to change this behavior? I know about the "mactab" method but it will be erased when you upgrade to newer firmware
