Hi I'm sure I am over looking something silly. CCR2116-12G-4S+ - no config apart from ip on ether13 and ip on newbridge /interface bridge add name=newBridge /interface bridge port add bridge=newBridge interface=ether1 add bridge=newBridge interface=ether2 add bridge=newBridge interface=ether…

:slight_smile: that dhcp is just for eth13 - is the console / back up port. on ether12 which connect to a switch there is a dhcp server

move dhcp server from ether13 to bridge

@biki73 what are you writing? Read what is written first, before writing randomly.

@ASTradeW What you try to do here? /interface bridge vlan add bridge=newBridge untagged=ether12,ether1,ether2,ether3,ether4 vlan-ids=1

That entry, as of now, is harmless, because currently vlan-filtering=no on the bridge. Even if OP turns vlan-filtering=yes on, the entry is still correct (and will be dynamically added anyway if cables are plugged into those ports).

[image] CGGXANNX: That entry, as of now, is harmless I was specifically asking what he wanted to do, :wink: whether he added that line just because he thought it would make the switch work normally, or was it the beginning of something more complex?

Another case of sandbox ( lack of first post process ) failure. would have ensured jaclazs 12 rules were read first post clear requirements, network diagram, and config. OP may never have posted after the above, self fixing the issue....... If he had still posted it would have been a single pos…

I didn't have this initially, but I noticed that routeros added PVID to the interface for vlan 1 so I added it I'm not wedded to vlan 1 nor having that there

Um ... well hadn't read those rules. But I thought it was outlined really simply 4 ports 1 switch currently dchp packets are not being sent out of the bridge packet dump sees packets enter eth1,2,3,4 and into the bridge and then no further. The config added was a complete dump of the config th…
