add management IP to CRS switch? how to? example not working

RouterOS Beginner Basics

hello,
I have followed Example 1 from:
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:CRS_examples

everything work fine with one exception.

setup of “Management IP Configuration” not working because, IP for mikrotik switch is in VLAN300, from the example.

so, my question will be, is it possible to add management IP to MT device from some of vlan’s from trunk port?

CISCO <-------------------------------------> MIKROTIK
SWITCH PORT MODE TRUNK PORT 24 TRUNK FOR VLANS 200,300,400

latest firmware is installed.

Did you verify its not just a trunking problem by setting a port on your CRS to vlan 300 and testing access?

3

trunking work fine.

vlan access 200.300.400 working fine on port mode access.

Lets simplify question. How to choice management vlan (like other L2 switches)?

Ok I can make work, but I don’t want.
If I use some other vlan example vlan 50 to be management vlan.
But I want to also use IP numbers from that management vlan.

Can you give an example?

If your management VLAN is 300, then create a VLAN 300 interface on the Master port for the switch group and apply the management IP address to that interface. Make sure you enable VLAN 300 on the Master port as well as the switch-cpu port in addition to your trunk.

I have this all working on my CRS226, but I don’t have remote access set up so I can’t do a config export until later.

Ok I will try to do it again tomorrow.
If you find your config, post it. I appreciate Your help.

Thank You,

Hi,

can You clarify this a little bit as it is not working for me. Everything is configured in a way you described and two swithches cannot ping eachother over trunk port…

Thanks.

Problem solved.

solution is to add:
/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag
add tagged-ports=ether2**,switch1-cpu** vlan-id=300

/interface ethernet switch vlan
add ports=ether2,ether6,switch1-cpu vlan-id=300


Now everything is fine.

That should be added on official manual page!
