Bridging Vlans?

Wed Jun 01, 2005 5:53 pm

List:

I would like to use my mikrotik router as vlan switch on some interfaces,

Currently I have 3 sites, all with MK routers, routing segments and stuff...

I would like to:

MK1(vlan1)..................(vlan1)MK2-bridge-MK2(vlan2)............(vlan2)MK3

Is this possible?

Gino

VLAN over Wireless interface doesn't works proper. With ethernet interfaces there are no problems ;)

If you start VLAN over a wireless interface it doesn't work proper.. If you start it over LAN interfaces they work... you can bridge them, firewall them, make shaping and such things ;)

Well, they do work properly. The thing is that VLAN frames do not incorporate additional MAC addresses, which render VLAN useless for bridging if it is put on wireless interface in station mode. routing through VLAN should work fine, as well as bridging VLAN interfaces put on wireless AP. If you are experiencing problems other than I've just described, please tell us more.
