Yes, my quest seems a little hard to explain :-) But is it possible to have
a "mini" switch with 2 ports in the new firewall and then the current
firewall connect to that switch (bridge) with public IP addresses
configured not knowing about the new firewall, but just the layer2
switch/bridge which is connected to ISP uplink ?

Both firewalls connect to the bridge which is connected to ISP uplink, new
firewall via eth1 virtually (or internal connection in the new firewall)
and current firewall with ethX via real physical ethernet cable.
