Re: MLAG hopelessly broken?

What else then? EDIT : i just gave you alternatives RIGHT above your post if you are on a budget ... fs.com S5850 or N5860. i would recommend the N definitely heavier on the price tag than mikrotik but quite solid switches Those switches are 7x more expensive than the MikroTiks :shock:

CRS is not a core router, but a core switch with routing functionality. it's main purpose is to switch. You have the wrong hardware. get a hex r3 (or better) in front as the router and use CRS as switch only

Re: Understanding DHCP on Mikrotik [SOLVED]

I think what I'm asking for is the ability to bind a dhcp server to a bridge.
Have you tried it? I see it can be done on Version 6.40.2, and possibly some of the earlier ones as well.

Check the Queues, both the Simple Queues and Queue Tree, it's probably set there.

Re: how to NAT outside IP range?

The router is probably choosing wrong source address. Set the right one 192.41.100.x (I assume .1) using src-address parameter for ping.
How can it probably choose the wrong source address? I only specified one subnet

how to force VPN (PPTP) over certain interface?

Hi, Is it possible, at all, to force a PPPTP VPN over a given interface? Let me explain the scenarion: A remote branch (to far to get to quickly) has a VPN over ADSL connection which is very slow. So I told them to buy a LTE router and use that to re-route some of the traffic over the LTE, and thus ...

Re: Use colors to identify interfaces, firewall rules, etc.

The rules connected to the active WAN are black and the WAN that is not active the color is red. If you want to colour then colour the background and not the text, Yes, I know those colors exist. But that's it. More colors could make life a bit easier. Here's another example, how about being able t...

Use colors to identify interfaces, firewall rules, etc.

I think it would be a great idea if you could color an interface, firewall rule, route, etc. For example, if I want to quickly see everything related to the WAN interface,I could color it blue. And the backup WAN interface could be yellow, or whatever color. But this would quickly stand out in Winbox

Re: how to NAT outside IP range?

E.g. this on one router and reverse on another (swap src and dst) should do the trick:
/ip firewall nat
add action=masquerade chain=srcnat dst-address=192.41.100.0/24 src-address=192.168.4.0/24
Great, thanx for the help ;)

Re: Sniffer Attix5 Other communication

no one?
I am guessing the "Other" traffic is traffic that isn't defined. i.e. it's not HTTP / SMTP / FTP / SSH / etc, etc traffic, perhaps IGMP or IPV6 traffic, etc

Re: how to NAT outside IP range?

Yes, NAT can probably help you. If you add masquerade rule for traffic from remote site (tunnel) to local, everything will appear as comming from router's internal address, i.e. from local LAN.
Thanx, I guessed as much, but honestly don't know what NAT rule to put in.

Re: Throttle Windows Updates

It is a very bad idea to stop upgrades from taking place. You are placing your users under risk from all possible attacks. This will end up causing you more problems. Instead, why don't you configure cache or maybe even a local Windows update service on Windows Server? https://technet.microsoft.com...
