Basic AP setup - want to add a VLAN

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello,

i got a RouterBOAD hEX and a cAP ax.

The hEX is connected to the internet with default configuration and a dhcp-server running on it.

I did reset (No Default Configuration) the cAP, enabled a bridge, attached the ether/wifi interfaces to it and enabled the wifi interfaces with appropriated security profiles.

So far so good, its working.

I would like to create a guest VLAN but i am not sure how to do it.
Should i create a Interface->VLAN and Wireless->Virtual Interace at the cAP?
Then do i have to create a DHCP Server for this VLAN on the cAP as well?

If anyone got a good tutorial or can help me with some commands, would appreciate it.
The wifi-type is Wifi Wave2.

Regards

THE reference tutorial on this forum for VLAN…

Not updated for wifiwave2 specifically but the basics still apply.

Suggest once you go vlans, all subnets are vlans, so the bridge does no DHCP and does not get an address.
The guide provided is very good.

Means you have to

  • add another VPN (with interface being the bridge) just dont use vlan-id=1
  • change slightly IP address, IP dhcp-server, to interface of the vlan
  • modify /interface bridge port and /interface bridge vlan accordingly.
  • interface list members for LAN are the vlans now, not the bridge

As for the capac device… this guide demonstrates how to.
