The Switch Config shown in the image above has worked (no problems) with r48810 so a release thereafter made changes that breaks it - certainly by r53544.
I have never seen CPUPORT and in r53544 it appears and disappears depending on switch config settings.
Is there any documentation on what CPUPORT is about?
Is it possible to send questions to the dd-wrt developers? _________________ DD-WRT v3.0-r43334 std (06/04/20)

The Advanced Networking forum sticky on switch configs was very interesting but raises even more questions. It shows WAN CPUPORT, LAN CPUPORT, and CPUPORT (latter which I have intermittently in r53544 - it comes and goes depending on other switch settings). The other two I've never seen.
Are these three port settings more recent additions to dd-wrt? Are there any docs - asking because I find almost nothing. I don't understand how to use them. _________________ DD-WRT v3.0-r43334 std (06/04/20)

Most routers have one cpuport like yours.
Some high end routers have two.
A vlan has to be connected to a cpu port to function and if you have only one cpu port the cpu port needs to be tagged. Just like all ports which have more than one vlan.

The configuration shown in the screenshot works.
However, you then have to configure more than just the switch as the complete VLAN assignment has been changed.
VLAN2 is normally the WAN port, so the WAN port assignment must be adjusted, for example.
