Re: Packet loss on LACP, 2004, ROS7

Not that this helps, but let it be known I am experiencing issues between all Mikrotik gear. My environment was seeing extensive package loss in a CCR2004-16G-2S+ to a pair of CRS354s in a 2x2 MLAG configuration. When I changed my configuration to a single interface the packet loss has gone away. Su...

Re: L3 Routing - CCR2004-16G-2S+ or CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+ v7

No need to disable HW offload on any interfaces. If client feels it needs help from router (e.g. because destination of packet is not within same subnet), then client sends packet with MAC address of router. If CRS is acting as a router, then frame will be targeting CRS' own MAC address (of the bri...

Inter-VLAN traffic passes normal firewall rules. The settings "use-ip-firewall=yes" and "use-ip-firewall-for-vlan=yes" force using firewall filters for traffic passing bridge inside L2 network (either all-untagged LAN for the former setting or intra-VLAN for the kater setting). ...
