Help with Port security SOS

Thu Jan 14, 2021 9:41 pm

Hello, I have a hAP ac Lite routeboard, and I want to know if it is possible to configure port security, that is, if someone disconnects a computer and places another, the port is blocked for security, is it possible to do this on these computers? Thank you very much

Yes and no - 802.1x is supported like on every Mikrotik device with bridge functionality, but you need an external radius server for the 802.1x authentication. hAP ac lite doesn't have UserManager (which is an on-board RADIUS server) in ROS 6.x, so I'd be surprised if it was added in ROS 7.x (where UserManager appears to support the features needed for 802.1x).

You can use filtering by MAC address, but it can be fooled around easily.

Thanks, It occurs to me that I could enable a radio server on my CCR1036 that it reaches via VPN. What do you think of this plan?

If the CCR runs 7.x which is still a beta as of writing this, it could be a solution. If it runs 6.x, the UserManager doesn't provide the necessary RADIUS capabilities.

Thanks Sindy, then, the better choice is to use a Radius Servet on Windows ir Linux...

"hAP" means home AP. There are more suitable models for User Manager / RADIUS server functionality

I haven't tried yet, but I think port security can be implemented with Netwatch with a 1 or 2 second time interval.
