Good day. I have a router Mikrotik RB3011 and 5 of switches L2 level. Each L2 Switch has 2 vlan Switch which divides into two parts. 48 ports are not tagged. 2 ports tagged. Total turns 10 vlan. Switches are connected to each other through the tagged ports. And connected to mikrotik in Ethernet port 2. Ethernet 1 WAN is for Internet access. Ethernet port 2 the bridge itself. When the lift bridge 10 interfaces vlan the load on the CPU is very big and the traffic very much. I have heard that you can use the Switch for routing vlan. I ports ethernet 3 - ethernet 10 free. But I do not understand how this can be done and routed VLAN0-VLAN10 without the bridge. Is that possible? Sorry for my English, I translate through Google.
When you add vlans as interfaces you’re doing VLAN in software, so this uses the CPU.
Is it possible to use hardware VLAN, by using the Switch chip VLAN hardware features; see http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Switch_Chip_Features#Vlan_Table
However, if you want to actually route between VLANs, you need to “raise” VLANs to RouterOS, that is create a VLAN interface.
What do you mean with
I have heard that you can use the Switch for routing vlan. I ports ethernet 3 - ethernet 10 free. But I do not understand how this can be done and routed VLAN0-VLAN10 without the bridge.
Do you want to switch, or do you want to route? How much traffic is passing?
Post an export of the router setup, it will be easier to help.
Can mikrotik on switch there level routing vlan without loading the CPU?
No. Switching= L2 by hardware, Routing=L3 (software).
There’s something “in the middle”: MPLS (L2.5) which performs almost at L2 speed / CPU load, but done on software.
I set up a vlan. Physical ports are speed 1 gigabit. When copying from Vlan1 in vlan2 or at some other speed is at 5MB / s. I am expecting that the rate should be higher, at least at the level of 100Mbps. What could be the problem?
It looks like you are using bridges to do VLANs. This is not as effective as doing VLANs on a switch chip level.
