Capsman, 2 x DHCP and Bridges....
Posted: Fri Jan 08, 2016 11:09 am
Hey Guys.
I am having a few problems here.. Would appreciate some pointers. We have a RB2011 controller with 5 RB951's in capsman mode.
Basically the client wants the LAN ports and 2 of the capsman provisioned vAP's to run on the 192.168.1.0/24 (with DHCP) network, and then run a public Wifi with WPA2 on the 3rd vAP with a 10.0.0.0/22 DHCP address.
Ideally, this would all be done without VLANS.
Basically the setup is :
eth1: WAN via fixed IP
eth2, 3 & 10 are the RB's
eth4 & 5 going to switches for the wired clients
The Staff will use one wireless vAP, the infrastructure another and the guests use the 3rd. This is setup via Capsman already, and we tried to use 2 seperate bridges for it (internal & Public) but that failed
Any ideas the best way to configure it? The problem i am facing is the fact that about 300 clients use the wifi each night, and right now we have multiple ranges setup in the DHCP (192.168.1.10-249, 192.168.2.10-249, etc) and that doesnt seem to be the most reliable or clean way to do it.
Any advice much appreciated.
BTW: I followed this post: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=87458 as much as possible, and set the datapath in the capsman configurations to use the Internal or Public bridges, but that failed...
