You can run the wizard again and scan the interface and the new port should be present.

OK, might be worth while to incorporate an easier way to do this. If you don't give it the exact same name, it creates another instance of the host that is a pain to delete.

Agreed, we're actually working on a new switch/router wizard as we speak that we hope will be easier to manage.
