Is it correct to bridge in this scenario? (image included :)

RouterOS General
1

I have this scenario:

I bridge the ether2, ether3 and the miniPCI Senao.

I connect clientes through the Senao miniPCI and the Senao with ip 172.16.0.5

Everything is in the same subnet.

Did I do the correct thing? It is working, but I don’t know if this is the best solution.

What do you think?

Another question.
suppose that I send a packet form a client connected in the miniPC to a client connected in the senao IP 172.16.0.5… DOES THIS SEND THE PACKET THROUGH EHTER2 TO IP 172.16.0.4, IP 172.16.0.3 TOO??? OR MT ACTS LIKE A SWITCH IN BRIDGED INTERFACES SENDING PACKAGES ONLY THROUGH INTERFACES WHRE HOSTS ARE CONNECTED???

im i clear? sorry for my poor english

Use mikrotik tools and your eyes will flow side by side with your packets. :wink: Even if the RouterOS occasionaly make them go to the wrong path…
