Your Orbi satellite must also be connected to the Orbi network, so if your switch is upstream from the router then don't connect the Orbi satellite to the same switch.
Are you trying to open a port outside to the public network and what port is getting blocked? What is the device whose port you're trying to make available and where is it connected in your Orbi network? Have you setup port forwarding rules for it?
No I am not trying to set up port forwarding.
Current configuration
ISP modem connected to orbi960 orbi connected from 2.5gb port to Unifi POe switch 2.5gb port, from 2.5gb port on the switch cable running to Orbi satellite connected to 2.5gb port.
