Tell me I'm wrong, but for CRS3xx you should use just ONE bridge and VLAN filtering with hardware offloading like described here: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Interface/Bridge#Bridge_Hardware_Offloading Heres an excellent example config for the CRS3xx with separate router: https://forum.mik...

Maybe it's just a bug in RouterOS!? To be honest, I never tried it without use-tag. I configured two SSIDs with different VLAN IDs and use-tag, hit ARP issues and found out I could make it work with multicast-helper. Seems to be a bug. Multicast-helper=full solved the problems even without use-tag....

sputniki

Multicast helper is not about routing, it avoids wifi broadcast by translating any wifi bum traffic to unicast. Ok, now I understand. Sorry for the dismiss - I didn't know about the usage of the helper for "multicast" AND simple "broadcasts". O:-) I still don't see the relation ...

sputniki

Try setting multicast-helper to full on your WiFi interface. I'm sorry? I didn't get that point. What should multicast routing help for that kind of problems? The packets shouldn't leave the same ether/bridge. I see the problem between the kind of connection the new bridge vlan translation is done ...

How would I change the above for Local Forwarding? The question boils down to: 1. Do I enable bridge vlan filtering? 2. If yes, do we tag the bridge, ether and wlan interface? If your infrastructure (switch, router) has your vlans already set up on the uplinks to the CAPs you only have to switch to...

when does MikroTik implement IKEv2?

sputniki

I'm not sure the best way to do this kind of setup using the RB3011UiAS as my main router. Every MikroTik with at least L4-License-Level is a good choice for your planned network design. With the RB3011 you are able to connect the two networks with access ports or with trunking to managed switches....

sputniki

Sometimes costumers are fixed on strange ideas ;-) To limit the WiFi access only to devices in access list it is necessary to bind interfaces or a vlan-id to the reject-rule. Or instead configure MAC address rules for all interfaces/ssids. Our problem: there are more than one slave-SSIDs for the sam...

Hello Mikrotik PPPOE server and Bridge Networks..

Here is the problem in this way some devices like an access point, the gateway IP address seem to have.

network structure: Bridge Wds Transparan Mode

Why did you set the network address to 172.16.0.1 ?

/ip address set 0 network=172.16.0.0

sputniki

I think your wireless caps-interfaces don't have a IP-connection because datapath is missing. Wether you enable local forwarding or forwarding to the bridges you created on caps manager: Flags: X - disabled, R - running 0 R ;;; BRIDGE PRIVATE name="BR_PRIVATE" mtu=1500 actual-mtu=1500 l2mt...

sputniki

Yep! They all have static IPs and no I can't ping them. Up to now I used CAPsMAN forwarding

Nevertheless it should work. Do you have any IP address on that local bridge that you are using on caps manager?

sputniki

@uldis: for the moment my network is composed by 4 ap, which I want to control by CAPsMAN, with two radio modules each and only by one client, which has a static ip too. (Both the APs and the client are mikrotik devices.) So I think I don't need dhcp; am I wrong? Does your bridges on CAPs have IP-A...

I have one RB2011 and one HAP. CAPsMAN is running on RB2011 have no clue what is wrong.

The question was related to CAPsMan only installations before but now it will become important for everyone: Bandsteering with ACL?

The AP in theory can handle much more connections than that. But in reality the 802.11 protocol will have problems. And in your scenario with phones laptops you have a lot of low power devices, so you will have a lot of hidden node issues. Also as some client signals will be very low their rates wi...

The PoE injectors are actually Gigabit

Ok. But Why should a waste place and PDU-Ports with Power Adapters, if I have already a PoE-providing switch for all other network devices!!?

On the AP try use wireless protocol NV2 and if your clients are AC only, use band=5GHz-only-AC. Note that if you use NV2 the security profile is not working and you need to use the NV2 security. Ok I didn't tried to use NV2 because in my opinion it makes the AP inaccessible for non-NV2-devices?! :s...

You can't expect new functions so fast just because you ask for it here. Mikrotik will promise nothing, but one day, maybe, you can be surprised.

For a project with a lot of routers in public places we need to implement communicating via http (instead of ssh) with PKI. So adding support for certificates in /tool fetch would be very important for a decision to use ROS an Mikrotik devices instead of openWRT gear.

There are wireless setting which are not documented (yet). Im was looking for the meaning of the values "vlan-id" and "vlan-mode". My first thought was the use of some experimental Q-in-Q-things for trunking VLANs via wireless bridges instead of creating vAPs for every VLAN. But ...
