OSPF and anycast IPv4

[HaPe]

Hi,
how to configure IPv4 anycast on MT?

Simply have a /32 address on a loopback interface on multiple routers and redistribute that address into OSPF.

A client will always get routed to the closest (OSPF distance-wise) device on which that address resides on.

Hello, what about IPV6? Is it the same?

Hi, yes, it should be the same idea, however if you’re planning to use recursive routing complemented with BGP it will probably not work so good, I think that’s a bug with Mikrotik.
