When i plug network cable to my computer there are two ways to internet .
1st) I can reach internet with automatic IP
2nd) I can use my pppoe account “not related with RB”
I have routerboard 750G
I arranged ether1 as a master for ether2.
I connected network cable to ether1.
My computer is connected to ether2.
My computer reachs internet automatically by getting auto ip but i dont want to reach internet like this.
I want to use my pppoe account to reach internet.
How can i filter 1st way or all packets, and reach internet just with pppoe connection.
Which protocol i need to drop to not reach internet.???
Please help.
Hi,
You are using mikrotik as a switch! Am I right? (Why?)
may I know why you use auto IP? Is there any services with this except Internet?
You can use your mikrotik as a router which means create a pppoe-client on it.
I can’t explain more because I don’t know what is your purpose from using mikrotik.
There is a university internet on switches with automatic ip. (That part is not related with me actually.)
We are using cisco router as a pppoe server already, we have system. We have connection from cisco to same switches.
So on switches there are two internet
Internet with automatic IP
Internet with pppoe connection.
Whoever plugs cable to switch, directly reachs internet with automatic IP (which is slow internet) or can use pppoe connection and reach fast internet.
The thing i want to do is, i plug a cable from switch to access point. I want people to reach internet with their pppoe account as wireless. But because of there is (automatic ip internet) on switches. When people connect to access point they are getting connected to internet with automatic ip like cable users but i dont want them to. I just want them to connect to access point and use pppoe account to reach internet. So i need to use mikrotik to filter auto ip internet drop internet packets and let mikrotik to allow pppoe connection only.
If each user has his/her own PPPoE account, they can create a PPPoE connection on their PC’s and use it.
If there is just on PPPoE account the mikroitk can dial and then others use it (the configuration is easy).
Another thing that I should mentioned is that when your PC obtain IP Automatically, You still able to dial a PPPoE. In this situation, PPPoE interface metric’s priority is higher than the default gateway that obtained automatically. So you are using the high speed Internet.
you can set ip address manually to not obtain default gateway from DHCP server. The point is PPPoE connection is not depended on what IP address you set on your interface.
If problem resists, call me.
You might be able to filter out DHCP by bridging the two ports together and using the firewall (Enable use IP Firewall in the bridge settings). I’m not sure if this is possible or if it will break anything else though.
