Hello,
Could you please explain me some topics, or link me the manual with definition, what is the meaning of the "Passthrough=yes, passthrough=no" in the firewall mangle?

Hi,
You could look it up in the wiki -
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Firewall/Mangle
What is actually means is - 'passthrough - ignore this rule and go to next one (useful for statistics).'
Rgds,
Mark

IMHO davizo70 didn't ask about 'action=passthrough' but about 'passthrough' property.
According to manual:
passthrough (yes | no; default: yes) - whether to let the packet to pass further (like action passthrough) after marking it with a given mark (property only valid if action is mark packet, connection or routing mark)
It means that you are able to mark connection (with 'passthrough=yes') and next mark it with routing mark, for example.
HTH,

You could be right. Could you point me to the right manual (not article) page as I am unable to find what you quoted?
It seems I need to read more about this
Tks & rgds,

I found this information in old ROS 2.9 manual:
http://www.mikrotik.com/testdocs/ros/2.9/ip/mangle.php
In latest version in Wiki this information is absent

Thank you both,
I will try to see these explanations in practical examples for better understanding. In case I have more question, I will ask again.
