My first steps on Advanced Routing

RouterOS Forwarding Protocols
1

I try to improve my knowledge on Advanced routing with the next lab experience.

Now I will do the next way (like PCC dual-system), I think that is NOT a good way because it would be hell for more than three nodes. I guess the best way is an advanced routing.

What would be the best way to do it? (Now I’m confused, do not know if BGP, OSPF …) some tips to get started?

Thank you very much

This way I think that is not a good idea

seems good =) just add default routes to the main routing table also

and you don’t have ‘Local’ interface, that is mentioned in your config =)

I’m sorry, i little mistake, local was wlan2. now is good. I haven’t done the test, this is only one theory.
I would like know if there is one way to do with BGP or OSPF. Is it possible??

Thanks

well, you masquerade all traffic, so both routers even don’t need to know about another subnets. you may want to setup OSPF/BGP if you will need to enable communication between your customers on different APs, but they are will just redistribute all routes across the network, and you will still need the setup you posted above

Thanks you very much, you are been very fast to answer
