How to hide a mikrotik RB532

I have a mikrotik RB532 that I want to put in place in my network. But I do NOT want this device to be visible via winbox on my network. Any ideas?

Hook up everything except the power cord.

Sorry :slight_smile:

I think there is some sort of network advertise/network discovery protocol option somewhere in the MT. Perhaps that is what winbox would use.

You only want to disallow winbox? Disallow 8291/tcp and the ip service ports. You can also disable mac-telnet port (20480) and some others if you need it to be more stealth.

/ip neighbor discovery

/ip neighbor discovery set ether1 discover=no.
In this example RB is connected to network via ether1.
Also you can setup access to your RB
/ip firewall filter add chain=input src-address=myip1 action=accept
/ip firewall filter add chain=input src-address=myip2 action=accept
/ip firewall filter add chain=input src-address=myip3 action=accept
/ip firewall filter add chain=input action=drop

Awsome, Thanks!
