Connecting Two Mikrotik routers / Two Subnets

Sat Oct 05, 2019 4:29 pm

Hi All

Can someone help me with the steps through to getting two Mikrotik Routers working together on different subnets.

R1 is (RB2011Uias) works just fine using PPPoE to my Fibre modem. R1 is at 192.168.1.1/24 with DHCP 192.168.1.10 - 192.168.1.30, NAT enabled.

R2 is (RB2011UAS-2HND-IN)

I would like R2 to be using 10.0.1.1/24 with DHCP in that range.

I would like to use ETHER5 on R1 connected to ETHER1 on R2.

All my efforts fail to provide internet access though strangely from within 10.0.1.0 I can ping 192.168.1.1

Any help really appreciated

Re: Connecting Two Mikrotik routers / Two Subnets

There's potential chance for having problems if you want connectivity between devices in different LAN subnets and you want to have firewall between them.

If you want to have it, then the setup will have to be slightly more complicated.

If you won't allow any connectivity between devices in both subnets, then you'll have to run firewall on R2 which will block things. In addition to that, you can either run srcnat on R2 (and leave R1 as if there wasn't R2 with its subnet) or don't run srcnat on R2 but configure static route on R1 (something like /ip route add dst-address=10.0.1.1/24 gateway=<R2 "WAN" address>).

So my modest (nay novice) skill level still won't allow traffic to the internet from R2.

Maybe you need something like this?

On R2:

/ip dhcp-client
add comment=uplink dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=\
ether1
/ip firewall nat
add action=masquerade chain=srcnat comment="Masq LAN" out-interface=\
ether1 src-address=10.0.1.0/24

Re: Connecting Two Mikrotik routers / Two Subnets

Sun Oct 06, 2019 10:18 pm

On R1:
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge comment=defconf disabled=no interface=ether5

This should help you... When you enable ether5 back, try to ping on R2, 8.8.8.8
Basicaly your R2 should get ip from R1 and use it as WAN ip.

If it still not working, please post here export from R2:
/interface bridge export
/ip route export

Thanks of the replies.

I'm afraid neither worked and I thought I'd give a default config a go and BINGO!

Re: Connecting Two Mikrotik routers / Two Subnets

I checked your configuration of R1 and R2 and i'm totally confused. Your configuration should not work....
On R1 ether5 removed from bridge ... and on R2 ether1 used as WAN with dhcp-client on it.....it means that R2 will not get WAN ip and will not work.. Are u sure that R2 connected to eth5 on R1? =))

Yes

R1 Ether5 >>>>>> R2 Ether1 🤔

DHCP on R1 192.168.1.xxx
DHCP on R2 10.0.0.xxx

I’m wirelessly connected to R2 as I type!

Can you run commands on your R2 and post here output :
/ip route print detail
/ip dhcp-client print detail
