What am i missing?
I am using ROS 3.30 x86 and Intel Dual Core based PC.
I am trying to add virtual-ethernet to existing ether0 interface.
When i try to do that in winbox i get "feature not implemented yet"
If i try to do that in command line i can't because function doesn't even exist
/interface virtual-ethernet
bad command name virtual-ethernet (line 1 column 11)
Do i need some additional packages to make it work?
Thank you

No. I was hoping that i can have something like eth0:1, eth0:2 etc. that is very easy to do on standard linux... Is that possible?

simply add all needed addresses to the eth0 interface

I know that, but i need to have two pppoe servers on those two virtual ethernet interfaces. Every virtual ethernet interface is bridged with different AP's. I need that so that i can always have same MAC address of each pppoe server. If i put those pppoe servers on bridge interfaces i can't be 100% sure that they will have same MAC address after reboot or any other action that i might have... I hope i was clear enough?

I hope, Bridge's 'Admin MAC Address' is the solution

Not realy, i was trying to do that. I've used nonexistent mac address and all users on that bridge disconnected without being able to connect again

Would VLANs be of any use in this situation?
