Forward to Proxy

RouterOS Beginner Basics

I have a interesting request from a customer.

So to understand what they want i will try to explain. They are using some goverment network and the goverment network requirement is to use proxy for computers to access internet. All the clients in the network have proxy settings set in Internet explorer.

But they are a library and have now bought an AP for Wifi for guests and the guests can’t access internet now without setting up proxy settings on their devices. And that is the pain in the a**.

For the sake of debate lets say theese are the customer data:

IP Subnet 192.168.88.0/24
Gateway : 192.168.88.1
Proxy to forward trafic to : 5.5.5.5:8080

So the setup would look like this

SWITCH → MIKROTIK (PORT 2) / MIKROTIK (PORT3)—> CISCO

I would like to use mikrotik to gather all the traffic of the network 192.168.88.0 going to the internet and forward it to the proxy, thus eliminating the need to use proxy setup on the clients.

I hope i was clear.

I have a feeling that this has either a simple solution or is imposible :smiley: But i just cant wrap my head around it…

Help would be apprechiated.

Hello,

What you need is a transparent proxy. take a look at this : http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Proxy#Transparent_proxy_configuration_example
