Hello.
I have an absolute standard config of my Mikro Tik.
Like after a reset. The only thing I changed is the IP pool of the DHCP server.
But I have the problem that switches behind the Mikto Tik don't work.
If I connect devices directly to a port on the Mikrotik, they work perfectly.
But if a switch is connected to a Mikrotik port, these devices are not accessible.
The switches work perfectly in a different config and I have already tried it with several switches.
What could be the reason for this?
Thanks
Re: Problem with switches behind Mikrotik
That makes no sense as described. However without your config, we're guessing. Please post your configuration and either a drawing of what is connected to what, or a detailed description of the same. To export and paste your configuration (and I'm assuming you are using WebFig or Winbox), open a terminal window,
and type (without the quotes) "/export hide-sensitive file=any-filename-you-wish". Then open the files section
and right click on the filename you created and select download in order to download the file to your computer.
It will be a text file with whatever name you saved to with an extension of .rsc. Open that file in your favorite
text editor and redact any sensitive information if desired / needed. Then in your message here, click the code
display icon in the toolbar above the text entry (the code display icon is the 7th one from the left and looks
like a square with a blob in the middle). Then paste the text from the file in between the two code words in brackets.

Re: Problem with switches behind Mikrotik
Hi,
My guess(es) is that it might be something to do with Spanning tree, or more likely Vlan configuration.
I would expect spanning tree to begin to work after a minute or so (worst case scenario)
Perhaps the switch port you have plugged the router into is on a different vlan to the port the device is connected too or is a trunk port.
Alternatively, still guessing, based on a comment in the config, perhaps you want the router to have multiple vlans on the connection feeding into the switch, and maybe provide routing between those vlans. Some idea of the switch configuration might be useful.

Re: Problem with switches behind Mikrotik
I apologize very much.
The switch actually has a problem.
Under certain circumstances the switch doesn't seem to work, but I don't yet know why. And with the second switch I tested, there seems to be an error in the VLAN config.
I tested everything again with a brand new switch in the standard config and now everything works as expected.
So the problem doesn't seem to be with the Mikrotik config.
Sorry and thank you.
