Problem configuring VLANs - please help

Hi everyone!

I recently got some Mikrotik routers and switches, and for last 5 days I’ve been fighting with RouterOS trying to setup VLANs, unsuccessfully.

If someone can help me with this, I’d really appreciate that.

My topology should be like this:

a router, CCR1072-1G-8S+ which should be connected to WAN on ether1 interface with static IP, and sfp1 interface connected to core switch
a switch CRS212-1G-10S-1S+, which would act as a core switch; connection to router is on SFP+1
a bunch of switches CRS226-24G-2S+, where client computers will be connected to

There are, for now, 3 VLANs, each with it’s own /24 network segment:
VLAN 10: 192.168.10.0/24
VLAN 12: 192.168.12.0/24
VLAN 14: 192.168.14.0/24

I would like all VLANs to be routed on the router, so I correctly created VLAN interfaces on router interface sfp1, with appropriate gateways. And that’s about all what I did.

Can someone help me from now on, what should I do? What configuration should I make on “core switch” to have all VLANs on edge switches (where I would like to assign them to specific switch ports, either in access or trunk).

Thanks in advance!

P.S. if you need some additional information just ask!

This will be a good guide to setup the VLAN and interfaces on the switches. If you have additional questions, feel free to ask.

I tried that, but it doesn’t help because my router can’t do switching.

Basically, what I want is to connect my router to my “core” switch with a trunk containing all the VLANs, and “core” switch will, let’s say, forward all the VLANs to edge switches where I will do VLAN filtering.

I thought you stated that you setup subinterfaces on the router and you were going to setup your core switch for your VLANs / trunks / access ports…
