Capsman Local Forwarding Configuration

Hi all,

I need your help in local forwarding config.
I did configured Capsman without local forwarding and it’s working fine, but with local forwarding no IP is distributed.

I am using Vlans through Bridge, do I need to do something else or change some config.?

And thanks in advance.

As far as I can remeber both should work without making additional changes.
Here you can findo more information on this subject:
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/CAPsMAN+with+VLANs#CAPsMANwithVLANs-UsingLocalForwardingMode

To be able to help, can you please share your config of the CAPsMAN?
/export file=anynameyoulike (make sure to remove any private information)

When provisioning CAPs for local forwarding, it’s important to keep in mind that datapath part of configuration on CAPsMAN refers to the rest of configuration on CAPs. So if it’s meant ot use VLANs, the VLAN confguraiton has to make sense on CAP’s bridge (e.g. have vlan-filtering=yes set on CAP). Which means that often it’s not as simple as setting local-forwarding=yes.

Thank you all for your help.

I solved it by doing:

In CAP
I changed the discovery interface to physical interface (before was logical interface, in my case sw-vlan).
And put wireless interface as tagged to the desired vlan in Bridge Vlans.

That’s it.
