CRS328 how to use as real router

RouterOS General
1

Hello friends,

i tried to search , but due to the words routing and router there are many hits, but i can not find a relevant one.

i have the new CRS328-24P-4S+RM

i have it updated to 6.43.2 and enabled to boot into routerOS.

i want to use it as switch and router combined, but cannot find a good how to to configure.

something like that…

anybody able to explain?
i have a good knowledge about networks and systems, but the user interface is far from self explaining

thank you a lot

Please note that the CRS328-24P-4S+RM is by design a switch with routing capabilities, so routing performance might not meet expectations.

As example of configuring it, create a bridge and assign ports 2 - what ever to the bridge, this will form the switch part, then port 1 which is not part of the bridge, will be your routing port, i.e. WAN port
