Hello everyone! I need your help, I am new to the issue with Mikrotik routers, I have a rb3011 and I need to know how I can use ports 2 to 10 each with a different Lan network output (port 1 is the wan), regards
Simply remove the default bridge and put the IP of each interface (2 to 10) and create the respective DHCP server on each interface to get IP.
Regards.
Thank you very much krafg, it worked for me. I will continue with the configuration to see if I achieve the purpose of the new network that I am creating, regards!!!
krafg gave you the easiest most direct route.
No need to put any ports on the bridge or give the bridge any address.
Each port gets its own IP address and dhcp etc…
THe next logical step is you decide to put a smart switch somewhere, usually because you run out of ports on the router or for some reason realize, you want to put several subnets on one port going to a specific location ( and distributed by a smart switch or a smart AP etc.).
At this point you will need to think about vlans, and the good part is you already have removed the bridge from any dhcp which is the best approach for vlans as well.
When you cross that bridge (pun intended) come back for guidance.
That is what I’m doing with my RB4011. Router only performs routing / DHCP functions. All switching is done in separate managed switches (CSS326 in my case). No bridge in the router.
