User Authentication

Hi, Mikrotik forum. I want to implement a Mikrotik router that provides DHCP along with a switch (the brand doesn’t matter). The idea is that each user connecting to the switch must authenticate before gaining access to the network. I understand there’s the Hotspot option, but I’m looking for someth...

Re: VRRP bridge in MikroTik

VRRP config be roughly the same across all versions, so it isn't the issue here. But I guess my first advice be to update to version 7.15.2 if the routers are newish (/system/package). Or even if older router, if only for testing, you'd be better off to start with V7. All the docs and bugs focus on...

Re: VRRP bridge in MikroTik

Was this working before you tried VRRP? One thing I noticed is each router needs BOTH VRRP interface and address. In the config, you should just one. But using Bridge VLAN filtering (or switch chip for vlans if older) is likely better plan here. The criss-crossing VLANs just add unneeded complexity...

Re: VRRP bridge in MikroTik

If your VRRP interface is using an IP address in the same subnet as the master interface (192.168.0.0/24), then the network (192.168.0.0) and subnet mask (/24 or 255.255.255.0) has to match. The network for the IP address 192.168.0.254 should be 192.168.0.0, not 192.168.0.254. If you were to use an...

Re: VRRP bridge in MikroTik

The VRRP interface should not listen on ether2, rather it should listen on vlan10-ether2. Alright, but VLAN 10 on Ether2 doesn't get an IP, and if it doesn't get an IP, VRRP won't activate. Do you understand why? I can't figure it out. # jul/02/2024 16:01:31 by RouterOS 6.47.7 # software id = G353-...

Re: VRRP bridge in MikroTik

Perhaps post the config you're trying. The VRRP part is pretty simple: - Each VLAN needs a VRRP interface, with the VLAN interface being selected (note NOT the bridge). - Each VRRP interface should have /ip/address ending in .254/32 (note NOT /24, the VLAN IP should be /24, not the VRRP interface)....

VRRP bridge in MikroTik

I have a question; I have this topology. Is it possible to configure VRRP with a bridge? I've tried many ways, and nothing works. To summarize: when I receive a VLAN, I have to create a bridge to distribute the VLANs, but when I do that, VRRP no longer works. Is there any way to configure VRRP in su...

Limit of VRRP Instances on MikroTik Router: Performance Impact

Is there a limit to the number of VRRP instances that can be configured on a MikroTik router before it significantly affects its performance? I'm looking to set up approximately 6 VRRP instances on a MikroTik router. What is the limit? By that, I mean, what is the threshold at which the MikroTik dev...

Re: Connection between subnets

Usually the router do it's work... routing, and if PC firewall do not block nothing, ping is possible. But... if you have modified the default configuration on the router.... or you leaved the default and ether1 is the wan interface... Better you post the /export for see how the device is configure...

Re: Connection between subnets

ether2? not ether4?

still not clear what you want obtain.

put the /export of the config on the forum with a network diagram
/interface set ether1 address=192.168.8.6/24
/interface set ether4 address=192.168.10.1/24

Re: Connection between subnets

What you mean for "both networks can communicate with each other"? If you can ping from one device on network A, one device on network B, you have already done. I connect to ether1, setting the pc to ip 192.168.8.50/24 and on ether2 a pc with ip 192.168.10.5/24 and they do not ping each o...

Connection between subnets

Dear forum members, I am writing to seek your assistance in configuring my MikroTik network. Currently, I have the Ether1 interface with the IP address 192.168.8.6/24 and the Ether4 interface with the IP address 192.168.10.1/24. I would like both networks to be able to communicate with each other wi...

Connection between different networks mikrotik

Good community, perhaps too basic a question for some. I have a topology with (2 layer 3 mikrotik switches) (the rest are basic switches) I want a PC with ip 192.168.214.10 to have a connection to ip 192.168.8.10 or .1. and tried static routes, firewall rules, etc. Can anyone suggest configuration i...
