Hello,
I would like to have the following configuration:
1st local network (192.168.1.0/24) - for my home
2nd local network (10.0.0.0/24) - for my company
There should be no communication between the two networks.
I would like to configure the switch as follows:
port1 and port2 to be part of virtual switch1 for my first local network
port3 and port4 to be part of virtual switch2 for my second local network
Thanks in advance.
You can only make one switch group on an RB450G.
To solve this, you could set port1 and port2 to be switched, and put port3 and port4 in a separate bridge.
Erk… And why not using vlans?
make two bridges and add ports to them.
In case you don’t know, bridge is processed @ cpu level, vlan switching is done by switch chip (dedicated hardware).
Performance issue should be obvious now.
This is in fact how I’ve done it in OpenWRT on my WRT54GL, but I don’t know how it can be achieved in RouterOS.
There two places from where I can setup a VLAN - from the interfaces and from the switch menus.
In my case, I believe it should be the VLANs in the switch menu.
