RB493g basic configuration Lvl4 Router OS 5.20

Brand new to Mikrotik so I will ask some relatively dumb questions.

1.) I understand I can only switch eth2-9. If I understand correctly I need to choose one of these as a master port and set the rest to make it the master port? Is this correct?

2.) If I wanted to create connectivity between eth1 and the switch group would I bridge eth1 and the chosen master port?

3.) If I have created four Vlans with a Cisco Switch (Vlan DHCP, Vlan Voice, Vlan Scada, Vlan Unified Presence phone) can I make a trunk port on the Mikrotik 493g to unpack those so that I can pass dhcp out of the wireless/ switch ports to computers in the field from an AP perspective?

I answered a few of these questions already with a bit of googling, so I now my questions are modified.


1.) If I were going to bring my signal in on WLAN1 what is the best way to connect it with the switch group, bridge? If so to what do I bridge, Master port?

2.) Same question if I were to bring signal in on ETH1.
