Re: Newsletter 104

Just a note to avoid misunderstanding: the DROP rule added at 14:47 of the video "MikroTips: How to firewall" should be moved one line above otherwise that IP address will still have access to the network.

Get "root bridge ID" from devices

I need to monitor the RSTP status of some devices and to do that I would need to know the current "root bridge id" of each. I saw that the command /interface bridge monitor bridge once includes this information but how do I just extract the single line and store it in a variable? Thank you.

Re: PoE switch oddities

I not understand the problem, you try to force poe out on right ports? Yes and nothing changes. I don['t think You can use the RB260 PoE out while powering it through PoE. To really use its four PoE outputs You would need run it through the DC in jack. I absolutely confirm, the RB260 is powered by ...

Re: Wireless backbone stability

Since
all ap with only one ethernet and only one wlan
so when you say
all MASTER PTMP
you mean all MASTERS PTMP with more than two interfaces?

In my case all the wireless devices configured as AP / MASTER PTMP have only two interfaces and therefore I can disable RSTP.
I learned?

PoE switch oddities

Let's take these three devices: A = switch RB260GSP, PoE IN on port 1, PoE OUT on ports 2-5 B = access point cAP AC, PoE IN on port 1, PoE OUT on port 2 C = router hEX, PoE IN on port 1 Legend: A.2 = device A, port 2 --- = network cable I powered A with its power supply but through a PoE adapter (RB...

Re: Wireless backbone stability

Yes, switching to a routed network is certainly in the plans but I have to get there step by step. I am already using the RB750Gr3s almost everywhere to derive routed subnets from this backbone and create VPNs: small but powerful! I'm using the RB260GS because with the 4 PoE ports I easily feed / co...

Re: Wireless backbone stability

Thanks for the tips guys, very helpful. I come back to the topic because I had to change the network topology for other reasons but the problem remained. At the moment the network is conceptually similar to the following: AP0.0( )ST0.1---SW0.1---AP0.1( )ST0.2-----------AP0.2( )ST0.n---SW0.n / | | SW...

Re: Wireless backbone stability

On PtP with one ether and one wlan, how you can made a loop? Yes, a loop on this type of device is quite unlikely ... However, since the wireless backbone originates from 6 different points in the wired network and 90% of the links are PtMP, a loop is still possible. Unfortunately, between a Statio...

Wireless backbone stability

Hello everyone, I inherited a geographic backbone made up of about 70 wireless devices (all Mikrotik, various models), where I'm having big stability problems. The problem is that communications often suffer interruptions, even of about ten seconds and as the diameter of the network increases, ie th...

Opinions about Mupsbox

While I was looking for solutions, alternatives to the various TR-069 servers, to manage the growing number of devices of our customers, I came across a software that I had never heard, specific for Mikrotik devices and which seems to have quite interesting features. It is called Mupsbox . Before mo...

SOLVED: Re: MTK L2TP clients do not get DNS servers from PPP profile [SOLVED]

In the changelog of version 6.47 we read:
*) l2tp - added "use-peer-dns" parameter for L2TP client;
So after updating the operating system it started to work properly.
Thank you.

MTK L2TP clients do not get DNS servers from PPP profile [SOLVED]

Hello everyone, I have configured some hEX routers as L2TP/IPsec client of a Mikrotik CHR server and they work very well. The problem is that they don't get the DNS server addresses I specified in the profile, the same one used to configure the server too. With the same server configuration, Windows...
