Got myself a new RB2011UAS-2HnD-IN just today, and have managed to get it up and running. However, there are a few areas I need help with and I hope you guys can guide me. Prefer to use the Web interface wherever possible, since I am not a command line person . But I am open to learning, so will be nice to have guidance in both web and command line.
DHCP Reservations - not working. I populated the MAC Address details of the devices and assigned an IP to each of them, but the devices are not getting the IPS I want them to.
Firewall configuration - Does the device do basic filtering by default? Saw some excellent info on securing the device, but are there any guides to secure a home network?
A media player connected to the FE port is complaining that it cant see the server connected to a GE port. Do the GE and FE ports communicate with each other by default? If no, how to enable this?
How to configure OpenVPN client and NTP server on this device?
I think you have misunderstood my question. I am trying to assign a fixed IP for certain devices on my network. Rather than configure them for static IP, I prefer to “reserve” an IP for each device MAC address. This is possible on DD-WRT, and I am sure it can be done on routeros. Just got to figure it out.
After much fiddling around and a LOT of help from the re-seller, I got some of this stuff working (Highlighted in Green) Turns out that I cannot manually add client IDs when reserving an IP.
That brings up another question. How to add a label to a IP address reservation?
Still need help on item 3 (Firewall config) and 4.
Also need help on setting up rules to forward all traffic destined to port 80 to a squid proxy connected to the same subnet. Tried this rule, but does not work
. But I am open to learning, so will be nice to have guidance in both web and command line.
