Issue with local firmware upgrade - Keep Settings

Routers
1

When I upgrade firmware for MT6000 Flint 2 using Keep Settings the file accessed from SSH using command vi /usr/share/gl-eth-ports.json is reset to default value. Is it possible for this file to be unchanged by firmware upgrade where Keep Settings is used?

Thank you,

Noel.

PS: I have used Luci to change LAN5 to secondary WAN/LAN5 port and WAN/LAN1 to LAN1. The file that is being reset to default value is used to name the modified ports in the user interface. Everything works but the port names are incorrect.

Hello,

This file must be changed (restored) by firmware upgrade (even if keep settings is used).

If you have manually modified this file, please also backup one to your PC.
After each firmware upgrade, please overwrite this file to achieve a quick configuration change.
