I have 10 x 128kbps PPPoE Clients from the same provider (mikrotik routeros 2.9.6) and i want to merge them into one line
so the result will be 1280kbps
Which version should i use ??
and what are the steps should i follow ??
and how many ethernet cards did i need ? (is it possible to access all of these 10 clients in one LAN Card) and what about the mac addresses from the provider’s side ? are they displayed as one mac address (i mean the mac of my one ether) ??
Thank you so much and please post me some the steps
Sorry i am a beginner in MikroTik
is it possible to access all of these 10 clients in one LAN Card
This would be possible using VLANs.
You would need a VLAN capable switch (e.g. HP-1700) and add each modem to an untagged VLAN as well as the RouterOS interface tagged on all VLANs.
and i want to merge them into one line so the result will be 1280kbps
This will only be possible if your provider supports multilink pppoe.
Otherwise you would have to use ECMP but you will never get more than 128kbps per connection.
Thank you for your help , but why should i need to HP-1700 switch ??
i will plug the input cable into ether1 (pppoe1-10) then make a bridge and have an output from the other ether card ??
What about converting this pppoe connections to a static IP addresses using external router device like (Gigabyte GN-AP01G) and then putting them all into RouterOS PC using 4 ether cards as maximum ???
is that possible and how could i merge 4 static ip addresses to have the maximum speed ?
