Route List / Table question

Hello all, I am wondering about the following and I have not been able to find an answer. Assume a Mikrotik router with three IP's - two are static, and the third is DHCP. My question is, which of the three WAN IP addresses will be attached as the "main" connection in the routing table? I ...

Mikrotik mobile app question [SOLVED]

Hi all, in what board should I report a bug in the iOS mobile Mikrotik app? If here is OK, here's what I encounter. I get access to a router from my up-to-date iOS device with the latest version of the Mikrotik app, while using a Wireguard VPN. So far, so good. I then want to add another peer, and u...

RB2011IsAS-RM - eth10 dead? [SOLVED]

I have an RB2011IsAS-RM to play with. I was hoping to set eth10 as my management access port, but I have a feeling it's dead. Setting an IP address, DHCP etc works fine, but I can't connect to the board through this NIC. I know it's a PoE out port, and I've disabled that feature since I won't need i...

Re: CHR first setup [SOLVED]

Re: CHR first setup [SOLVED]

Perhaps. I used Proxmox in the past with OPnsense and did not have to do anything special with Proxmox or its Linux bridges. I assumed I would find the same with a CHR instance. I can’t find a lot of documentation on “initial setup” for CHR, only how to install it or upgrade the license. The fact th...

CHR first setup [SOLVED]

I am trying to get a lab setup going with CHR. I was able to successfully load a CHR (v 7.6) VM in Proxmox (v7.3-3), and added 5 NICs as bridges linked to the onboard NIC and a 4-port NIC card. So far, so good. The VM shows the NICs and all necessary pieces. It boots up just fine. I can connect to C...

Re: VLANs on RB750GR3 - I'm stuck...

Thank you, Buckeye, you make some valid points. I especially like the idea of being able to free up a port on the switch and move the Pi to port on the MT.

I'll look into it.
