The usb adapter is irrelevant here just gets abstractized as network card and probably shows right away in ip link, i think the easiest way is to bridge that adapter to your main one https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_bridge, cause a switch config or a separate dhcp server is darn complicated :)
