Hi
I wanna to simulate multiple connected wireless clients using 1 physical wlan interface, all clients connected to 1 AP (non mikrotik device).
Configuration on AP:
bridge with wl0, essid: test, bridge ip 192.168.1.1/24.
conf on Mikrotik side:
adding 2 wireless clients:
/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no mode=ap-bridge
add disabled=no keepalive-frames=disabled mac-address=6E:3B:6B:07:85:5B \

add disabled=no keepalive-frames=disabled mac-address=6E:3B:6B:07:85:5C \

wds-cost-range=0 wds-default-cost=0 wps-mode=disabled
/interface wireless security-profiles
set [ find default=yes ] authentication-types=wpa2-psk eap-methods="" mode=\
dynamic-keys wpa2-pre-shared-key=test_pass

trying to run ping command simultaneously from 2 clients:
ping 192.168.1.1 routing-table=vrf_cl1
ping 192.168.1.1 routing-table=vrf_cl2
I can see all packets on my AP (non mikrotik device):

but on Mikrotik I see only icmp packets on one interface, when I disable that interface I can see packet on the second one:

What I missed in that configuration to be able to ping from two interfaces at once ?
