Hi there,
I have an RB493AH for home use. I works like a charm, but there is some configuration thats annoying me that I can’t figure out…
-
is the ability to assign Static IP address based on a mac address, assigned through DHCP:
I have the 8 interfaces, where each interface has its own DHCP pool (Eth1 - Eth8).
On Eth8 there is a NAS server, which I’ll assign a static DHCP ip for, based on the servers mac address. eg. 00:00:00:00:00:01 assign ip: 192.168.8.10 (where 192.168.8.1 - 192.168.8.10 ain’t a part of the DHCP pool for Eth8).
How is it possible on Mikrotik??? -
Assignment of DNS for local use:
Lets say that the NAS server has the static ip assigned, or even danymic, it doesn’t matter for this purpose.
I know its possible on pfSense router software, I think its called “DNS Forwarding”. Based on mac address you can assign a DNS name that would work locally of cause.
Lets say that we want following dns: local.nas to forward to the location of the nas with ip 192.168.8.10. Is it possible on Mikrotik??
Hope there are some of you that can help me, since it quiet nessecary to create my network fully functional.
