I currently have two routers serving various stuff at home. One has a cable based internet and the other has a DSL based internet. I want to combine the two routers into one. I tried this once before and all the LANs and VLANs worked fine, but external routing was all screwed up. I think I know what I messed up and need to do to get the DSL based LANs to route via the DSL and the cable based LANs to route via the cable, but as Anav is fond of saying, tell us what you are trying to accomplish, not configuration (or something along that line). Besides, there are people here that know far more about this than I do. Now the details.
First of all, here is an extract of my LAN drawing of how it is today (and working fine).
In case you can't see the image, here is a link to it: http://extraphotos.info/mikrotik/2021-0 ... xtract.png
Router #1 gets a DHCP from my cable, and is used by the 100 series of LANs and VLANs (and .209). Router #2 gets a DHCP from my DSL and is used by the 200 series LANs and VLANs. The 211 LAN is used to get between the two routers. For now, these is no intent of automatic failover. There will likely be some of that in the future, but not today. Neither router has a bridge configured and since I am only using the routers as routers and all switch functions are done in the CSS326, I don't believe there is any advantage to adding a bridge to the router. If I'm wrong about that, please explain why.
For now what I want to do is move ports 1 through 5 of router #2 into ports 6 through 10 of Router #1. Obviously the 211 LAN currently on port 5 of each router will not be needed as an external link. Setting up the interfaces, and firewall rules is easy. I just need to make sure that traffic on the 100 series LANs and VLANs uses the DSL and traffic on the 200 series LANs uses the cable internet. As I said, I think I know what I need to do to make it work right this time, but want to hear from the experts...
