VLAN configuration

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi Guys,

Ive been using Mikrotik Routers for a few years, but never with VLANS, there is so muchconflicting information, and I cannot get this working.
The router is a RB1200 running OS 5.16

The port is linked to a Cisco Switch, with the below config

fa0/13 - VLAN237=10.0.100.5/30. VLAN238=10.0.100.13/30

The port is linked into ether8 on the routerboard

This is the vlan config I have

/interface vlan
add arp=enabled disabled=no interface=“ether8 - CWA - DNZ” l2mtu=1596 mtu=
1500 name=DNZ-VLAN-238 use-service-tag=no vlan-id=238
add arp=enabled disabled=no interface=“ether8 - CWA - DNZ” l2mtu=1596 mtu=
1500 name=CWA-VLAN-237 use-service-tag=no vlan-id=237
/ip address
add address=10.0.100.6/30 comment=CWA-VLAN-237 disabled=no interface=
CWA-VLAN-237 network=10.0.100.4
add address=10.0.100.14/30 comment=DNZ-Vlan disabled=no interface=
DNZ-VLAN-238 network=10.0.100.12

The conflicting information I have is in regard to bridging, some places say use a bridge, some say dont use a bridge, and are not clear what LAN port you build the bridge from?

Can someone clarify this so I can get it working

The MT config should work.

As for the bridge/no bridge discussion. If you only need tagged traffic, you don’t need a bridge. If, however, you also need untagged traffic, you will need to use a bridge. Either way, it doesn’t hurt anything to use a bridge. Here’s a config:
/interface bridge
add name=bridge8
/interface bridge port
add interface=ether8 bridge=bridge8
/interface vlan
add vlan-id=237 name=vlan237 interface=bridge8
add vlan-id=237 name=vlan238 interface=bridge8
/ip address
add …If this still isn’t working, can you post your actual config from the cisco?

show run int fa0/13
show run int vlan237
show run int vlan238

Regarding the bridge question it depends on your needs. What are you trying to accomplish?
