Router configuration - advice needed

[Asylui]

Hello everyone.

I am using Mikrotik Rb4011igs+RM. Currently the router is connected to the ONT device provided by the ISP through ethernet 1. From port 2 to 10, i have connected them to TV PC gaming consoles and so on. I want to switch the connection from the ethernet 1 to the SPF+ port. How do i shift the configuration from ethernet 1 to SPF+.

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Of course it depends on your current configuration, post it for review, instructions here:

Hello and welcome to the Mikrotik forum For all new users that uses RouterOS for the first time and have some questions regarding their config here is short tutorial on how to access RouterOS configuration using "WinBox" and how to export their configuration and posting it properly in their topic. So after you unpack your new device and connect it to the power supply you need to connect it to the PC. Be careful when connecting because to access your new router you need to use one of…

Loosely, a normal setup is as follows:

• ether1 categorised as WAN
• all other ethernet ports assembled into a bridge
• bridge categorised as LAN
• SFP might be "loose" or part of the bridge as well.

So basically you need to make sure that the SFP is "self-standing" (taking it out of the bridge if it is in it), categorise it as WAN, assign to it an IP address (or have a DHCP client run on it) make sure it has a link to the ISP router and that the default 0.0.0.0/0 route is going now through it.
BUT this is true only if you are using the default firewall, if there are changes in filter rules or NAT you might need to adapt them to the new configuration.
