Hi, I have two WAN side connections, a ‘fully managed service’ where the service provider has provided a client side router presenting an entire /24 range of IP addresses (X.X.196.0), with the service provider managed router presenting itself as X.X.196.1. Pretty simple stuff to use on RouterBoard no issues. The second is a PPPOE SDSL Modem, with a single static (all though allocated dynamically along with its gateway, dns etc.) IP address. Again this was pretty simple stuff, and got that connecting and usable as a WAN resource within the MikroTik box. I am quiet happy throwing data around through the firewall, building single and multi port NAT tables etc… no worries.
But that’s about where my expertise ends. I have just had installed a third un-managed (wires only I guess) service (primarily because the first service provider has fallen way below their 99.97% service up-time, but has fantastic connectivity to some of our key partners). The new service provider has provided me with the following information and I have NO idea how to set this up withing the MikroTik router as a third WAN connection. Once I can bring it up on an ETH (say ETH 3) port and give it a name like 'WAN3" , i’m happy setting up all the Metrics and NAT - just don’t know how to work with these addresses, so I can selectively route (through NAT and masquerading) my ‘two’ IP’s to specific machines and services on my LAN’s as I do with the existing two WAN services.
Thanks, Keith
