any help on getting these ports to work will be greatly appreciated i tried the following openwrt versions
Firmware Version OpenWrt 22.03.5 r20134-5f15225c1e / LuCI openwrt-22.03 branch git-23.093.57104-ce20b4a
Firmware Version OpenWrt 22.03.4 r20123-38ccc47687 / LuCI openwrt-22.03 branch git-23.093.57104-ce20b4a

same results

This looks all fine and this is to be expected. Your device is swconfig, not DSA. The switch configuration is in a separate LuCI menu (Network -> Switch) and you will only get VLANs for the eth0 interface as in eth0.100 eth0.101 and so on for the VLANs 100 and 101. The ports will not be represented as interfaces (in contrast to DSA switches, where this is the case).

3

so the device doesnt support dsa?

4

Not yet.

5

It will come soon.
