Hello,
In order to be able to route the packets based on marking to pppoe1 connection, I need to have a manual route in table with matching marking.
In order to create that route and make it work, I uncheck the “Add Default Route” option in pppoe connection settings, so that my manual route kicks in.
And in the manual route entry, the destination gateway is set to pppoe1 interface, however it is not working, even though it shows gateway as reachable.
I doubt the ability of mikrotik having an interface as a gateway for pppoe. Any suggestions?
Are the NAT rules for the PPPoE connection auto populating?
I have DSL Connection that is PPPoE up in a mikrotik as a route for one of my VLANS. It is working just fine. I am doing the same thing you and and not adding the default route. Then using routing marks to direct the traffic to the connection. I assume you have some small error somewhere as I have this working.
