Using MikroTik in Transparent Mode without Proxy

Can we use Mikrotik router transparent mode without Proxy? We tried
to use rstp bridge mode like management switch. It’s working but, we
can’t successfully log user sessions.

We want to capture only local ip address, mac and active session. With
active Session I mean, the period of the user’s Session. We don’t
actually want use any user authentication mechanism or something else.

Actully mac-scan would solve this problem, but unfortunately the API is not working for this command/function.

what do you cal ‘Transparent Mode’?.. it’s property of Proxy. w/o Proxy the ‘Transparent Mode’ is non-sense

he meant cache probably. he could use it for access list and logging of visited pages. cache is not needed then

Maybe you can get away with running a script every x minutes that collects all the information you need about connected users and syslogs it to a remote server that then parses the information into a database of user connections.

either use calea or as normis suggested - set up proxy but deny any caching of web content
