I don't really get what you mean because I never mentioned getting a CCR1036 .. ? My point was that the CCR1009 even without the 10Gbps port would be sufficient for TMs latest offering. If they had a package above 1Gbps, I'd most likely switch to something with 2 SFP+ ports or more to fully utilize the service. The alternative would be using an SFP+ switch with VLANs to reuse a single 10Gbps+ port on the CCR1009 at the cost of total throughput. Neither of those setups would require link aggregation.

MLPPP and bonding was in reference to what they could potentially do to provide 2Gbps+ service on their existing infrastructure without switching to 10GPON or another access network technology -- so the aggregation would only be on the WAN interface. Of course, as you mentioned, it wouldn't be ideal for TM as you'd probably run into issues with imbalanced or out of order traffic flows depending on the implementation.

I was referring to using the ccr for internal network routing/firewall. Forget what I said then since you only intend to use it for internet routing.

edit: my reply was only about the SFP+

How exactly were you referring to using the CCR for internal routing in what I'm assuming is a router-on-a-stick configuration considering I clearly stated I would be purchasing mine in anticipation of the 800Mbps TM upgrade? You also mentioned throughput testing with fasttrack+PPPoE, a protocol that's generally not deployed on internal LANs, along with symmetric/asymmetric upload speeds .. nothing to do with internal routing or firewalls.

I'll 'forget what you said' but I really have no idea why you said it in the first place :/

i got this from shopee.
https://shopee.com.my/Adjustable-5-9-12V-18...80549.727907068
use 4 recycled batteries from laptop and it works. just testing I use it to power my rb750gl. can select 5,9,12v.

actually not sure how to put it to good use yet.

Hi, got my RB750GrGr3 and followed the instructions at https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Mikrotik_and...y_arpee/soonwai
to set it up.

WebFig is version v6.38.7

I noticed that the 2 VLANs that I created is not "displayed" under ether1. Is this normal?

Thx

That's normal, you'll only see the vlans under their respective interfaces in Winbox. Just a display difference between Webfig and Winbox.

Thx. Got it up and running just now after a few hiccups. Deleted all the entries and tried again and somehow it worked. LOL

Sure thing, no problem. Can’t wait for my upgrade too. Finally can stress the hEX. I only just found out myself but Synchroweb had the hEX on Raya sale for RM202. Ended on July 15 though.

Anyone want to try?

10G ethernet over Cat5E (using ConnectX-2 PCIE cards, Mikrotik S+RJ10 transceiver and Mikrotik S+ switch.)

One of the tests:


I think it's amazing. This will be good for people like me where re-cabling existing Cat5e is not really an option.

While reading more on this, I found out there is also another diagram for "enabled switching". I'm confused, in a typical TM Unifi setup, it will work like the "disabled switching" diagram?

Hey, that box on the left looks familiar...

Thanks for meeting up. And watch out for the "RB750Gr3. Will it blend?" video soon.

Hi soonwai,

After several resets to fix many mistakes and unexpected behaviours, I finally got my ac2 to the point where it's functioning identical to what my ac lite used to do, which is the main router for the APs and Unifi TV STB. I've gone through your old post (https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2040480&st=1580&p=88573740&#entry88573740) but the scenario you have isn't identical to mine and I trying to brain what needs to be changed.

My plan is to combine both IPTV and normal internet output from ac2 ether1 and input to ac lite ether5. STB connects to ether4. ether1-3 and wifi for normal internet traffic.

Admin mac address can be any randomly generated mac address? So for my ac2, below would be correct (my ether2 goes to BTU) settings? Thank you very much again!



Is this correct for ac lite?

This didn't work, adding the first line under /interface bridge port gave error message about the interface is linked to something else. Changing the bridge manually caused everything to stop working, had to reset and restore from backup. This clearly isn't easy.

hi guys...im noob in networking

i plan to subscribe to vpn

and my scenario is like this:

internet (unifi) -> router -> wifi AC -> desktop

i want the router to be able to connect to Unifi and OpenVPN at the same time...the desktop will go through VPN to reach the internet...but i want certain sites like Taobao.com to go through the line without VPN...

can mikrotik router with default firmware do this? which model do u guys suggest?

Planning to get CCR1009 with Unifi ac pro soon. Are those TM unifi guide for Hex still apply to CCR?

hi guys. im new to this router. so this is the situation im having right now.

im trying to setup a hotspot in our CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+ router.
i managed to install the user manager etc everything is up and running.

my question is, how im gonna link external AP to the hotspot server?
for the AP im gonna use Asus RT-N12HP and RT AC68U.

just point the radius server address inside the Asus router?

tq

ISP direct fiber into mikrotik router but i did not use hotspot... using ubiquiti controller (10 uap-ac-shd) > Desktop + phones (SMB environment)

I may be wrong but with Mikrotik’s new bridge implementation, it’s dynamic. You can have ether4 and ether5 as in diagram 1, non-switched and ether1,2 and 3 switched as in diagram 2, simultaneously. Just ensure that HW switching is enabled for both bridge and ports.

Sorry, I haven’t had time to really answer this. I just do the easy one first.

admin-mac for a bridge must be one of the ports in the bridge. If you’re not sure, remove admin-mac=xxx and just use auto-mac=yes. ROS will choose the first available port. The reason I set admin-mac is because when it’s on auto-mac, the MAC address of the bridges changes sometimes. Mikrotik support says auto-mac will choose the first available port in the bridge and it can be any of the ports.

As for my example for the vlan trunk. I use 2 different methods.

On the first router, I used vlans and bridges. On the 2nd router I used the switch features. This is just me messing around and for educational purposes. You don’t have to follow exactly.

What I recommend is just use vlan and bridges for both routers to establish the trunk. Essentially the vlan, bridge, ports config for router1 is the same for router2. More or less lah, the ports might be different.

Yes can, from RM100 to RM10000, same RouterOS same config for UnFi.
