Port Level Isolation facility on RB951G-2HnD like CRS. Possible?

Fri Feb 03, 2017 3:36 pm

Hi,
I would like to inform me if it is possible to use a RB951G-2HnD as a switch with Port Level Isolation as described here: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:CR ... _Isolation

Of course, we are able to use Port Level Isolation on CRS125-24G-1S as in Winbox Switch menu, there are everything described on the above link, but on RB951G-2HnD and on Winbox Switch menu, we don't have these selections.

Why this happens? CCR and RB have the same RouterOS family (MIPSBE)... Is there a way to use RB951G-2HnD as CRS125-24G-1S with the same switch abilities?

Thanks in advanced.

No,

This is possible with CRS due to a very flexible switch chip inside it, while the RB951G-2HnD doesn't have it.

You can do it on RB951G-2HnD by applying the interfaces you want inside a bridge and doing filtering at bridge to isolate between ports. But, of course, it uses your CPU resources to do it.

Regards,
