Using RADIUS and local user for VPN [SOLVED]

Hi, I'm in the process of setting up a RADIUS server for authenticating our VPN users. My question is if it is possible to keep using the "local" credentials under "/ppp secrets" on the MikroTik while using RADIUS at the same time? Or does RADIUS take over when I enable this maki...

Re: Accessing external IP from LAN without hairpin NAT

So essentially if I don't have the server in the same bridge as the LAN and keep them on different subnets I will be able to use the public IP of the server from the LAN? Correct, but same/different bridge is not actually relevant, only different subnets are necessary. You can have multiple subnets...

So essentially if I don't have the server in the same bridge as the LAN and keep them on different subnets I will be able to use the public IP of the server from the LAN? So in my mind it would be something like this: RB3011 (no bridging): eth1 -> ISP (IP for LAN) eth2 -> ISP (IP for DMZ) eth3 -> DM...

Hello, Right now I have a RB3011 router and a CRS326 switch at home. Since I don't want to open up ports from the internet into my LAN I'm going to configure a DMZ and put my server here where it will be "isolated" from the rest of the LAN. Right now if I try to access my external IP from ...

Re: Getting VLAN to work between router and AP

You'll have to set up VLANs on both devices properly. Setting vlan-id and use-tag on wAP is not enough. I suggest you to go through this tutorial , it'll help you to see what has to be done in ROS. Hopefully you already undersrand basic concepts of VLANs ... Wow thanks, I missed that post. It look ...

Re: IP Cloud

@janisk can you please check if you can open port 53 over TCP for the nameserver of *.sn.mynetname.net? (ns1.kissthenet.net and ns2.kissthenet.net)
These nameservers also doesn't seem to support EDNS.

Route some traffic through VPN

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to route some specified traffic through a VPN.

I'm having a VPN account in the US and only want to route traffic that's going to netflix.com and it's subdomains.
Is this possible? If so, how do I configure it?
