Port forwarding to subnets using masquerade.

RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hello

Question about port forwarding.

I beam out network to different locations. My WAN is connected to a mikrotik router at a local grain elevator. On the roof Ive got an antenna which beams out to different mikrotik antennas.

Except my own antenna, all antennas are set up as subnets using masquerade. How do I port forward to servers inside these subnets?

Thanks in advance.

regards

Jørgen

Your description is a little vague, but usually when there’s client device with another subnet hidden behing it using NAT/masquerade, you forward port(s) to its WAN IP address and device (its admin) adds own port forwarding rules from WAN to LAN.

Concur, a diagram with WAN and LAN configurations would be nice to see.
If you are simply going from one router to another router…
Then ISP to the first router is clear. On original router LAN, one IP is set statically for remotelocation1, which is also remote location devices WANIP.

Thus in original router one has to port forward to that original router LANIP address for the remote location.
In the remote location router one has to port forward to the device on the remote routers LANIP (specific LANIP).

If the remote devices are NOT acting as routers but as simply LAN devices, then nothing extra is required from simply port forwarding to the device in question (its lanip)
My answer is probably wrong but I don’t quite grasp the question.
