Help setting up a basic home network

RouterOS General
1

Hi there,

I have an hEX RB750Gr3 (5 ethernet ports).
I want to setup the following home network:

nic1: Internet
nic2-3: 192.168.8.0/24 (network 1 - trusted devices)
nic4-5: 10.0.0.0/24 (network 2 - untrusted devices)

  • All ports blocks on nic1 (that’s already the default).
  • Nodes from network1 can access all the nodes in network2.
  • Network2 nodes have only internet access and can access a single machine:port in network1 (192.168.8.180:1883).

The router should provide DHCP in both networks.

Both network1 and network2 have internet access via NAT.

I’d like to be able to setup this via both the UI and the console.

I’d be happy to write up a document if it doesn’t already exist once I get this working.

Thank you in advance. Please let me know if you need more information.

Suggest the onus is on you to try and config and post your /export here for review.
Not here to write your complete config for you.

Thank you for the reply.

I think I will start small by using a second router for the 10.0.0.0/24 network. That way I only have to add a couple of rules to drop traffic to the 192.168.8.0/24 network and allow traffic to the .180 host (tcp port 1883).

Once I get more familiar with routerOS I can try to setup everything in a single router.

I’ll keep you posted.
