We are attempting to migrate away from our current Cisco Nexus 9k to a MikroTik CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ for our edge router.
Currently we define our routes like the following:
ip route 0.0.0.0/0 69.154.59.9
ip route 10.24.10.0/23 162.137.128.7
ip route 162.120.121.0/24 162.137.128.7
The switch has a few interfaces as well:
interface Vlan2
no shutdown
ip access-group 101 in
ip address 162.137.128.1/24
interface Ethernet1/49
description 100GTrunk
no switchport
mtu 9216
fec off
ip access-group 101 in
ip address 69.154.59.10/30
no shutdown
I’m more used to working with a console for configuring our equipment, so trying to navigate menus to set up something simple is a bit confusing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
For something like GUI, I recommend to you use an application called Winbox. You can download it from official website absolutely free.
For routes:
IP → Routes
And clic on + icon to add the routes that you want. Simple.
For VLAN:
Add a VLAN interface on Interface window also with + icon
For IP:
To add addresses to interfaces, IP → Addresses and then again + icon.
For MTU and description:
On interface list open with double click the interface that you want and you will change MTU value and add a description.
The rests of config I not know (fec off and IP access-group)
To use terminal the structure to navigate is the same as Winbox menus and for sintaxis you also can double tab for help. There is no “enable” and “configure terminal” you directly start at entry point like “no menu selected” and then you need navigate like “directories on Linux”.
Also you need write complete command, but simple tab can helps. If you simply abbreviate commands will not works.
So in the IP → Routes when I add a new one for “ip route 10.24.10.0/23 162.137.128.7” all I would have put is “10.24.10.0/23” in the “Dst. Address” field and “162.137.128.7” in the “Gateway” field?
Does the 0.0.0.0 one work the same way?
