Quick fix, filtering traffic

Tue Mar 09, 2021 10:46 am

Hi,
We have a messy network and over time we need to clean it up.. But until that happens I was looking for a quick fix.. on one of my problems :)
It is a company network containing offices, production, automation and guest networks in one big pile.

My plan was. But i cannot figure it out? Is to separate the automation network from the rest. Just by putting an Mikrotik hAP in each of the machinens cabinets.
Then just filter all traffic. So only packets for specific IP addresses is accepted all other dropped.

This is just for giving the equipment, sitting in the cabinets more breathing room. Because we have a lot of timeouts in the communication in between them, PLC, IO Robots ect.
It will be the same network on both sides of the hAP
At this point i´m not looking at security or anything just a simple way of filtering all the noise away.

Any ideas to do this simple?
