Home router with IPSec and OSPF

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi! I’m newbie in Mikrotik and I need an advice.

I’m looking for a home router with a functionality to connect my home and work networks, in particular, create IPSec tunnel and establish OSPF-session with router from my work via IPSec-tunnel.

Which model will be the best? RB750Gr3 or something else?

Thanks!

(sorry for my english, and, probably, my stupid question :slight_smile:)

The RB750Gr3 will work fine for that.

I’m doing the same thing between 2 houses.

Use transport mode ipsec, then a GRE tunnel between the 2 sites. Add a /30 network to the GRE tunnel, then add that network to your OSPF networks. Plus whatever other networks you want to route locally. That’s all there is to it.

Getting MikroTik to work with other devices over ipsec isn’t always easy though.
