Hi, I'd like to kindly ask you if this scenario is possible:

Internet_CLoud<->RouterBoard<-LAN>ISP_Lan2Lan<->Remote_Offices

What we'd want to do is to perform Hotspot service for Remote Office Guest Users. The Guest Users network segments are different from those the RB has. We've already set this config up with no working outcome: At the remote office, just 1 user can get access for a moment (time profile: 8 hours) having in the same location the other Guest users no connectivity at all.

Can the Hotspot Service validate remote network segment users?

Looking in the forum, what we've found is:

"Hotspots have to be a client's immediate first hop. A hotspot must be client's default gateway."

Taken from: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=48600

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Can you elaborate your issue a little bit clearly...what is ISP_Lan2Lan??

Hi,

When I put a simple topology scheme, what I meant in the first post goes this way:

Internet<-->(Mikrotik_Router)<-->LAN<-->(Other_Router)<-->Remote_LANs


The remote LANs are other branches which actually have different network segments than those the Mikrotik Server has. What we want to perform is that every branch have a Guest Network with a single gateway located at our datacenter in a Hub-and-spoke topology. All these Guest network segments are carried through VRF's (i.e. Layer 3 links) up to the Mikrotik Router where we've set up a Hotspot service and the routing from the Mikrotik Routers to those segments via static routes (inside our LAN there is a Router that belongs to a ISP that carries traffic to/from the remote branches). We've already done the hotspot settings but it's no working and we'd like to know if this hotspot service can handle users from remote networks. At the remote branches we have Cisco Routers.

Thanks in advance!
