*) allow to use ip firewall for encapsulated PPPoE packets;

RouterOS General

may we recive more detailed explanation about it?

is mT able to inspect the packet inside PPPoE tunnels or it is able to just let pppoe flow inside the firewall.

regards

It means that when this option is set ip firewall will be able to see packets encapsulated into pppoe

so can I cut p2p traffic incapsulated into a pppoe tunnel?

Yes you can do anything like regular traffic passing bridge when enabled bridge ip firewall.


See my post http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/feature-or-bug-in-3-19-pppoe-packets-ip-filter/26028/1 very good feature but if you have before configured firewall for regular traffic have lot problem like me in 3.19 now I can disable this feature where not need and also enable where needed.



Thanks mikrotik

This feature won’t work with encrypted pppoe

And p2p drop will not work for for the encrypted p2p connections.

But what about the tunnel? Won’t it try to retransmit if a packet is dropped? Or won’t it damage the tunnel somehow?

And by the way, where is this setting? Is it in CLI? What is it?
