Challenges, Deficiencies, and Constraints in Developing Computer Network Practical Modules Using Mikrotik

Fri Sep 27, 2024 5:51 pm

Hi, I'm currently trying to do a research on making a practical module for university students for my final essay. I'm planning top make at least two modules first for the basic configuration of a router (Identity, making topology, Port, Bridge, Addressing, DHCP and static configuration, etc.). second one is about QoS management using the simple queue and Tree queue methods on which i would like to discuss in other basic topic. I'm currently using the hap-lite series (i forgot which one but it have both the 2.4 GHz and 5GHz) and I'm planning to use multiple pc and phones to search for some parameters and compare it between the theories like how networking address works and on the second module is to compare both theory of simple queue and tree queue with the practical way (these are temporary parameters).

However before i start, i would like to know what are the shortcomings and obstacles that might be experienced when conducting research on making these Mikrotik modules.
What are the difficulties that students might face in understanding Mikrotik configuration and how can the lab module help overcome these problems?
What are the obstacles that might be faced when conducting a lab module trial in a laboratory or academic environment, and how can they be overcome?

Any tips or references would be helpful. Thank you very much.

Get your hands dirty using the equipment, that will take a year, and then perhaps you will be ready to write something.
Nothing we can tell you will make a lick of sense without practical experience. Sorry have to write your own paper.

While the initial post smacks of "write my curriculum for me," I will repeat this common observation: the best way to learn how something works is to try to teach it to someone else.

Therefore, begin writing. Each time you run into a wall, experiment, then write down what you have found out. Go back and re-read prior writings occasionally to ensure they match with your current understanding of real-world behaviors. Repeat until done.
