Hi All,
I'm new at Mikrotik gear and thought it would be good to post my full configuration of my network. Hopefully this will help the next person along, and maybe I'll receive some sage advise from the gurus on here. All feedback welcome.
The config files are here https://github.com/maxslug/mikrotik_maxslug where I'll try to keep them up to date with the changes as I learn more from you all.

Migration from RouterOS 6.x to RouterOS 7.x
The older RouterOS 6.x / old CapsMAN files are at https://github.com/maxslug/mikrotik_max ... outer-os-6.
This is the diff of changes need to upgrade form RouterOS 6.x to RouterOS 7.x, as well as migrate to wireless-qcom-ac and the new CapsMAN:

(SSIDs only shown on one AP and one Switch, not on all, just to not clutter the diagram)
Thank you to all the mikrotik forum posters for all this knowledge and hard work, especially `pcunite`!
Design Goals
WAN
- Dual ISPs with auto-failover
- Complete removal of AT&T router ("residential gateway") from the picture
- Disaggregation of routing and wifi into separate solutions
- Switched managed Ethernet
- Redundancy
- Power over Ethernet to allow centralized UPS
- VLAN separation of Guest, Primary, IOT, Neighbor, and VOIP networks
- Centrally managed access points
- Roaming / Hand-off improvements
- Higher overlapping coverage at lower radio power rates
- Port Forwarding over VLAN
- Secure DNS
Network Design
These are notes to go along with the config files
Inventory
- 1 x Mikrotik RB5009UPr+s+IN Router using RouterOS 7.15beta8 [arm64]
- 2 x Mikrotik CRS109-8G-1S-2HnD Router/Switch/APs running RouterOS 7.15beta8 [mips]
- 3 x Mikrotik cAP AC (RBcAPGi-5acD2nD) using RouterOS 7.15beta8 + wireless-qcom-ac [arm]
VLANs
Code: Select all
VLAN |IP |Usage
------|------------------|-----------------
100 |192.168.100.0/24 |Base / Management
200 |192.168.120.0/24 |Normal LAN
300 |192.168.130.0/24 |Guest / IOT
400 |192.168.140.0/24 |VOIP
500 |192.168.150.0/24 |Neighbor
- For each subnet addresses `.1` through `.39` are reserved for static IP assignment. `.1` is the router.
- The WAN ports are not on VLANs
- Once configured, you will need to make a port be on `VLAN 100` to use WinBox.
