OpenWRT One Access Point Setup

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

I have received my One. I am looking to replace a current access point setup using Linksys E8450.
I was able to quickly get the system up and running with the 1G interface connected to the LAN and wireless configured. BRLAN

With the E8450, the LAN is a switch so I can connect a computer to the system as well as the LAN connection and it is picked up on the LAN.

My question: Is it possible to configure the second ethernet (2.5g) interface to be part of the LAN so the local system can be plugged into the network?

Yes, via bridging.

I figured that much. I just haven't been able to figure out how to add the second ethernet.
