Re: Microtik router with existing network

If the Tik was behind an external firewall, it's OK, no need to netinstall. The rest remains - add the last drop rule in input after checking that the one permitting management access from a dedicated interface with a dedicated subnet counts packets. It will count just one packet per each connectio...

Re: Microtik router with existing network

Guessing from your description what may be wrong: you can have one tagless and as many as you want tagged VLANs directly on an Ethernet interface, but if you do it this way, you cannot add the interface itself to a bridge (I mean, you can but the tagged VLANs won't work). So if you want ether4 to b...

Re: Microtik router with existing network

Second, your only /ip dhcp-server network item provides the hotspot clients with a default gateway address but not with a DNS server address, which makes it impossible for them to translate domain names like www.google.com to addresses like 216.239.36.109. So either add dns-server=8.8.8.8 to that i...

Re: Microtik router with existing network

The only thought to consider: hEX S have a very weak switch chip implementation - it can't do vlan's in hardware, only in software. It is not a real problem for small loads, but depending of the intra-vlan/inter-vlan ratio it can be a good idea to put a more decent switch between hEX and the rest o...

Re: Microtik router with existing network

I don't see where exactly you have two routers, it looks like one should be enough (but there's no major difference between one and two, you'd just spread the config between them). So one independent port would be WAN, and the remaining four would go in bridge. Office can be directly on bridge unta...
