H1b consular processing
My h1b was approved couple of days back consular processing. My OPT is valid till Dec 2020. Below are few questions I have

1) How long can i stay in OPT before transferring to H1b?
2) Is going out of the country is the only way to start my H1b or is there way that can be done without going out?
3) How different will be the visa interview in terms of COS and Consular Processing?
4) Also, how will be the Port of Entry interview in terms of Consular Processing?
5) My i-797 has the start date of 09-15-2019 to 09-14-2022. Will I get 3 years from the date of Port of Entry?

I am really confused, if anyone was in same boat, please do answer my questions really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
