Somebody i want to ask....can his IP Mikrotik itself cannot be use anymore by anyone??? i mean: if i already set the IP address for Mikrotik e.g 192.168.65.1/28 and the IP that i set cannot be used by anyone again.everyone cannot use the IP again 192.168.65.1/28.Everytime that anyone want to use the IP can be blocked by mikrotik not redundancy...Thanx 4 the help..

That would create a duplicate ip address within your network. What you would need to do is setup NAT for the second person and assign them another ip address.

sorry, that's mean we have to set the ip for another person manually.but if another one person use the same ip so we can get the same problem..it's there another way to set like what i think above?so it can automatically blocked anyone to use that ip add of mikrotik????...

You could setup a firewall rule that you can deny all traffic to that ip address. If you want the MT to use it then disable that rule. A script might even help depending on exactly what you want to do.

Just setup a drop firewall rule for only that one ip address... http://www.mikrotik.com/testdocs/ros/2.9/ip/filter.php

The manual has examples on how to do this.
