Hello guys!
I am new to routerBOARD and Mikrotik hardware and software, and I know that the software in these products is for trained individuals, and I need a bit of help doing some basic things in here. So, in my project, I have the Mikrotik mAP lite hooked up to a raspberry pi through the ethernet port, and I want my mAP lite to connect through ethernet to the raspberry Pi running OpenMediaVault (OMV for short), and have other devices connect to that OMV client via WiFi to the IP of the OMV client. Is this possible? I can help with anything you can ask to find this one out. Ask me to illustrate better with a picture or something if you didn’t understand.
I have wrote down what I need to do, but because of the hard to use interface for beginners in networking in general, I cannot set my configuration correctly to serve my purpose.
This project is basically a normal router setup, just without a WAN connection of any kind. Any devices that join the WiFi network will get an IP from the router and then should be able to reach the computer, in this case, a Raspberry Pi running OpenMediaVault. I would assume the computer’s IP would be either DHCP, or static in the same subnet as the router and DHCP server pool.
Here is the “Checklist” I have prepared of what I need to do:
-Get the wireless and ethernet bridged together
-Get the IP address for the mAP assigned on the bridge interface, not the wireless or ethernet
-Set a DHCP server on the bridge, again not the wireless or ethernet
-Set up the wireless as Station mode
Thats basically it!
TL;DR: I need to do what the checklist says above to my mAP lite. How do I do it?
Kind regards,
