Please don’t make topics to draw attention to other existing topics where the matter already has been discussed fully.
When you want things to change, posting on the forum is not the way.
You need to contact MikroTIk support and/or sales via mail with your business case.
For now, what you want to do cannot be done on the RB750Gr3.
Use the new VLAN aware bridging method. It will manage the hardware for you. In the case of the HEX or RB750Gr3 it does not support VLANs in hardware. I typically see about 300 Mbps for inter VLAN routing with no ACL in software on that model though.
That method does not support VLANs in hardware on any router, even on those that do support it in the classic switch configuration.
So it does not matter if you used the new VLAN aware bridge, or the old method of having VLAN subinterfaces on each port and putting
them in several bridges (one per VLAN). That way isn’t hardware accelerated either.
But, this has all been discussed in the topics above and there really is no need to start the discussion again.
@pe1chl
Can you post a link to where it says it support its on not.
Maybe I am blind, but as far as documentation, it is not listed as supported.
But I can enter all commands without error. But since I have only one unit and its production, I can not test on it.
I just like a clear answer, not a discussion.
Yes it supports it. (maybe from this or this version)
No it does not.
From discussions with support all future hardware is to use VLAN aware bridging and hardware support will be dynamically managed internally like you see with devices like the CRS. For older hardware I doubt we’ll see them revisit them.
In that case of older gear either fight with the switch menu or let it run in software.
That was the problem with the switch chip menu. You could enter commands all day and they just wouldn’t do anything all while being invisible to you the user. That was one of the driving reasons for MikroTik to introduce VLAN aware bridges that manage the state of hardware for you.
The documentation is correct the hardware does not support VLANs in hardware. The chip is believed to support VLANs from MediaTek but the way it’s used by MikroTik it does not.
It will only accelerate flat layer 2 traffic without VLANs.
