Hello everybody,
I'm a beginner in Mikrotik devices and I need your help how to setup Virtual AP (Guest WiFi) in the following setup: 1 hEX router (with DHCP server, firewall, NAT etc running) and 2 wAPs connected via Ethernet to the hEX, both CAPs controlled by CAPsMAN running on hEX (local forwarding on).
I want to setup a Guest WiFi with separate IP network from the main WiFi network, with no access between them - Guest should have access only to internet via hEX & no access to WiFi clients connected to main WiFi and LAN devices connected via Ethernet to hEX.
I don't know how to create Datapath and how / where (in CAP, CAPsMAN etc) to create Bridge for the Guest WiFi, so it can get DHCP address from a different pool of addresses. All my tries end up in having Guest clients getting IP from the same network as main clients.
All tutorials I've seen have the WiFi running on the router, not on separate APs, so I cannot fully replicate them.
Any advice/tutorial/hint on my particular setup is more than welcome.
Thanks,
Radu

Thank you! It's clear now.

Re: Capsman and Virtual AP - how to setup?
Did you guys managed to get this done?
When I set Virtual AP to CAP they will cause the real wireless interfaces to be excluded and deactivated. I am trying this on Ceiling AC with Hex as Caps manager.
Basically by adding any virtual AP none of the interfaces will join Caps Manager

Post your config

Config on CapsMan:
On CAP I just add a virtual wireless interface as slave of wlan1. Whenever I try to add this virtual interface to the CAP it will disconnect from Caps-man

I think I got it guys. Started a new CAPsMAN from scratch for testing.
I think I had it wrong on defining slaves on provisioning configuration. Will test a bit more and let you know how things go.
