The command “/interface ethernet set ether3 master=ether1”
is only working on some board models (rb333)
How to achieve same on rb1000?
R.
this is actually a benefit, because each port has it’s own chip. you can simply make a bridge and you will get much more performance than the devices that have the bridge chip
Normis, you talk riddles here.
What is the benefit? That it works on rb333 only? Or the benefit is it is NOT working on rb1000?
On which boards had each port it’s own chip? On the rb333? Or on all the others where the command is not executable?
Which devices do now have a chip for each port? And which have what you call a ´bridge chip´?
Is having a dedicated ´bridge chip´ better then each port its own chip?
I understand you are working with the technical stuff on a daily base and understand all ins and outs. But as an average user that only want to know how to use two ports of a router like on a switch (same network) your answer raises more questions then it answers.
But I will try to bridge two ports. But do I give now each port a IP address? or do I give the bridge a IP address?
Thanks,
Rudy
I put two Ethernet ports in a bridge but a capture program I want to use still only sees traffic between the PC and the connected port, not the traffic running through the other port.
I put the IP on the bridge and the PC is off course in the same network.
HOW to mirror the traffic on one ether port in another?
R.
maybe something like ‘/interface ethernet mirror’?..
bridge is like switch, not hub. it doesn’t mirror all traffic to all ports
