Switch group with VLAN on master interface

RouterOS General
1

Hi there,

i do have a RB1100 and i have port ether1 to ether5 in one switch group (ether2 to ether5 have ether1 as master-interface set) … so if i add a vlan interface on ether1 (master) will that be available on all slave ports too? I read the documentation but it does not clearfy that to me …

Thanks for your answer.

Regards,
Joerg

Unfortunately, no.

The switch chips simply switch VLAN tags. They do not allow layer 3 / routed interfaces to be inserted into the switch by simply adding the VLAN atop the Master Port. MikroTik does not currently have the ability to function as a regular layer 3 switch.
