    Fast router with VLAN

    And what about sfp1? It is listed gray in the bridge. My main internet connection is sfp1. I connected my backup connection to eth1, added IP->DHCP Client to that interface, set Default Route Distance to 5, so that sfp1 is used by default. Then my IP->Routes were updated. So far so good. What...

    Fast router with VLAN

    This is fine, will save me some configuration of VLAN. I found this post very helpful regarding Google Cast protocol configuration. I would also like to ask some super basic question. I have 10 ethernet interfaces + sfp: ether1-gateway ether2-master-local ether6-master-local 3-5 are slaves of...

    Fast router with VLAN

    Thanks. That explained a lot about the VLANs configuration. However if they are in the different subnets, it will cut the communication between guest network and the chromecasts.

    Fast router with VLAN

    This router is harder to configure that I imagined, and there are times when I hate it so much, but at the end of the day it is great :). What I didn't configure so far is VLAN and IPv6. I spent some time on VLANs but without much luck (what I tried was to create a VLAN, assigned it to a...

    Fast router with VLAN

    When I setup VLANs I can choose switch and port. But even if I choose switch1, all the ports (eth1 - eth10) are available. Aren't ports assigned to a switches, so that 1-5 is switch1 and 6-10 is switch2? What is the meaning of switch setting? I think I also don't understand the difference...

    Fast router with VLAN

    Thanks. This page explains how to forward external port to the internal IP. I don't have static external IP, so instead of specifying dst-address, I specified interface (sfp1). I have own DDNS domain that is updated by the router. If I use that domain name from the internal network, then...

    Fast router with VLAN

    That might be obvious thing to do, but I cannot figure it out - is it possible to move firewall rule from web ui (i.e. when I am adding new rule it is appended, while I need it in the middle)?

    Fast router with VLAN

    So it was not about routes. I needed to manually add IPv6 address to bridge local interface (address like 2001:db8:a0b:1::/64) and set "advertise" flag to true.

    Fast router with VLAN

    In the tutorial no DHCP server is used, only neighbour discovery. The problems with IPv6 were caused by firewall configuration, but I am a bit confused now. After configuring ND, my LAN hosts assigned themselves addresses like this: ::211:32ff:fe1d:e922/64 which is basically second part of IPv6...

    Fast router with VLAN

    Thanks for all the help. I have few more issues/questions. Firewall (both ipv4 and ipv6): I understand that "forward" chain is for packets being forwarded in any direction and to select the direction I should choose the source and the destination. So basically the rules for forwarding should be...

    Fast router with VLAN

    Right. According the documentation ipv6 is missing because I didn't enable the package (BTW that should be first thing on the MikroTik ipv6 wiki page). Regarding the firewall - there is a quick start page and some default settings. It included firewall rules, so I didn't have to setup...

    Fast router with VLAN

    I received the router and the access point on Friday and over the weekend I mounted them and made some basic configuration. Fast link works as expected, the web interface is super fast and the touch screen on router is a nice addition (it can display current bandwidth usage). I didn't really...

    Fast router with VLAN

    Sure, but it will take some time - in the store where I ordered the router it is 4-6 weeks delivery time.

    Fast router with VLAN

    Thanks, that's all great news. Having more APs would require additional PoE injector anyway, as only one port is PoE enabled. Not sure about the cables quality, they has to be flat (because of where they are aligned).

    Fast router with VLAN

    It is described here. For home use anything >=4 should be enough.
