What's written in that post is how I would do it, so the question is whether the requests from the relays reach the Mikrotik acting as a server and whether the source addresses of those requests are the ones you expect. /tool sniffer and /system logging add topics=dhcp followed by /log print follow...

It's because Microsoft people may have a perfect understanding what exactly the Central DHCP Server is doing, but they know nothing about RouterOS, whereas Mikrotik people know the possibilities of the RouterOS DHCP server but have no clue what are the features of the Microsoft Central DHCP server....

Unless you run a smaller shop I would not consider letting a Mikrotik take over DHCP services... The DHCP-implementation is Windows Server is much more advanced then what you would find on RouterOS. I know all that. Eh. Server 2016/2019 has "high available" (not using the old fashioned wa...

I was asking if RouterOS DHCP is able to respond for DHCP resquest from other VLANS / Interfaces which it is not member of. For majority of little shops, it would be perfect. On larger sites, i want to get rid of the MS DHCP server which i HATE a lot... For these sites, the DHCP service is provided ...

We have many switches doing L3 Routing. I'd like to replace the Microsoft Central DHCP server by our Mikrotik router.
I've done research for this to no avail. Is it even supported by RouterOS?

Never mind!

I don't know why and who, but there was an arm package in files! This CCR has CAPsMAN enabled and manage many APs, i think somebody put the arm package there for AP Upgrade.

Update packages fail with log error "can not install routeros-arm-6.44.1: it is not made for tile, but for arm" with "Long Term" channel. Actual versions / packages: dude 6.44.1 ntp 6.44.1 routeros-tile 6.44.1 Current firmware: 6.44.1 Model: CCR1016-12G After trying "Long Te...

...and add consumer WiFi AP's by other brands... I'd never do that! Just let the crap consumer stuff out of this! Adjusting manually APs is very annoying, especially in crowded environment. CAPsMAN manage and optimize things very well. We run it on very harsh environment with much success (20+ mix ...

Question is how future-proof it would be in a couple of years, if modern day mid-range consumer routers (120$-200$ already have 256MB - 512MB RAM and comparable dual/quad-core CPUs. You can't compare "Consumer / ProSumer" router with the Mikrotik product whatsoever... You choose a router ...

I have many setups using as much as 4 SSIDs (each SSID has its own VLAN) distributed on many APs, all that managed with CAPsMAN. Wireless clients transparently roams around using the best signal. Some of the wireless clients implementation roam better than others, meaning the "stick less" ...

We made a project with a large chemical products enterprise. Many floors with metallic mesh floors, offices, etc. We used SXT with CAPsMAN. They use the wireless network mainly with iPads for watching videos about repair procedures for machinery. We expanded the same network to offices, adding wAP-A...

I came here searching for exactly the same need and the same hardware! I read that you can achieve redundancy and traffic aggregation using bonding mode 6 (Balance ALB) https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/com.ibm.linux.z.l0wlcb00/l0wlcb00_bondingmodes.html This setup is said to wo...

You don't provide many details but have a look at firewall rules / IP routes.

Here is a RouterOS hardening guide from MUM: https://mum.mikrotik.com/presentations/KH17/presentation_4162_1493374113.pdf You can limit pings from inside network only or rate-limit it. The default config is decent but have a look at the hardening guide. Like the previous poster said, at least disabl...

Memory is mostly for buffering when network contention occurs. How fast is your internet connection? How much ethernet ports do you need? For WiFi, is it a big house with multiple stairs? Concrete? Do you need high bandwidth between VLANs and security? The hAP AC2 is able to push about 2 Gbps in rou...

Found this article while googling: https://mikrotik-routeros.com/2019/01/routeros-bridge-and-vlan-configuration-for-crs-devices-on-v6-43-x/ I configured my CRS328 like in to the article above. It almost works. /interface bridge add comment="Vlan Switch Bridge" name=switchbridge1 vlan-filte...

Anyway you could request about pulling a fiber cable? I believe they would appreciate the upgrade. They are so cheap now, premade too from fibercablesdirect . Of note about the CRS328 series, this is a CRS3xx, so you can do it via switch menu, or newer style. Don't mix the two methods. Have you rea...

I've never worked in a network that was so saturated that the Trunk port on a Switch was a place of contention for VoIP traffic. I always handle this at the Router. Here it is the case. The client is a TV broadcast station and they often transfer 50G+ files to the media server. One PC is able to sa...

Hi all, Just received a brand new CRS328-24P-4S+RM and wish to use it as a VoIP / PC access layer switch. So in a classic way, each port of the CRS328 will receive a connection from a 802.1Q IP Phone (Grandstream GXP2140) which will provide access port for a PC. We want to make sure the CRS328 will ...

Linux network bonding is very flexible. Here is a couple of references for you: https://developer.rackspace.com/blog/lacp-bonding-and-linux-configuration/ https://www.cloudibee.com/network-bonding-modes/ Mode 0 (balance-rr): This mode is also known as round-robin mode.

In Mikrotik world MTU = layer3 MTU and generally shouldn't ever exceed 1500 I'm late in this thread but i post for those who will get here searching for MTU in Mikrotik. Jumbo frames would be more than 1500 bytes. For example, we have GlusterFS storage nodes hooked to a 10 Gbps switch with jumbo fr...

His goal would be to put the CAPs interfaces in ap-bridge mode (which is a must to get station-bridge working) which doesn't seem to be supported. I have a setup with CAPsMAN running perfectly for all smartphones, PCs, etc. but i have a remote wAP (we have an ethernet remote device connected to it) ...

RB1100AHx2 would do great. It has ipsec acceleration (good for linking remote sites) and ethernet bypass (very interesting for dual router / dual internet access setups).

Logging is easy with rsyslog on a linux box.

I just did a quick test with 2x RB750Gr3 in tunnel mode and was able to quite happily get ~436Mbps: Note this was running RouterOS 6.38rc15. I wonder how you can reach those numbers.

for lower than 10Gbps speed there is no need for SFP/SFP+ port, basically.

Try to do 100M+ on copper!

I already have a bridged wireless network with 7 x RB951/RB751 hooked to a central RB2011. It has only one SSID right now, everything is bridged by the RB2011 and the users are able to roam. The RB2011 has the DHCP server and route to the rest of the network. This network is for private use. Now i w...
