Hello All,
I'm beginner to mikrotik and i want to configure RB-750G as a layer Switch, so that can manage both routing & switching together with VLAN.
I have 3Mb bandwidth and 64 Valid IP (75.175.161.73/26) and 3 user, that i want to manage them like this.
User#1: BW=1024 IP Range= 75.175.161.73 255.255.255.248 (Ethernet#2)
User#2: BW=1536 IP Range= 75.175.161.81 255.255.255.240 (Ethernet#3)
User#3: BW=512 IP Range= 75.175.161.97 255.255.255.248 (Ethernet#4)
what should do and how can i start?
I will appreciate your help and attention.

Hello friend!

I need more informations about your problem:

How do you plan to connect users? via wireless, cable...?
What kind of internet connection you are getting from your ISP?

Regards!

Ok,

So, You are connecting users directly from lan ports of RB750?

You can create PPPoE server with rate limits for each user on RB750 easily to acomplish your task.

Yes they are.
So there is no need to configure vlan?
another solution except PPPOE?

You can use private IP's on client LAN card, and then netmap it to Public IP on the Mikrotik, or you can create some kind of DHCP server, which will assign public ip address to clients...

There is no need to configure VLANs.
For me, best solution is to use PPPoE, it have many advantages...
