This page introduces EVPN technology for Layer 2 and 3 VPN services, detailing BGP control planes, MPLS/VXLAN encapsulations, and EVPN route types (Type-1 to Type-5). It explains NVO terminology like NVE, VNI, and MAC-VRF, describes BUM traffic handling via ingress replication, and outlines symmetric/asymmetric IR

Frequently asked questions.

This page documents the transition from RouterOS v6 to v7, highlighting key changes such as increased routing table limits, new `/routing/table` and `/routing/rule` menus, improved route processing speed, and differences in policy routing. It includes examples for configuring custom routing tables, multi-WAN setups, and troubleshooting mangle rule conflicts.

BGP nexthop selection procedures on input and output.

Introduction on how to establish BGP sessions.

Route Distinguisher (RD) adds unique prefixes to customer addresses for VRF differentiation, while Route Targets control BGP routing information exchange between instances.

Route filtering in MikroTik RouterOS uses script-like syntax to match prefixes and modify routing distances based on conditions, with properties categorized as readable or readable/writable for matchers and actions.

This section provides guides for RouterOS routing and networking protocols, covering routing decisions, policy routing, VRF, route filtering, and major protocols like BGP, OSPF, RIP, EVPN, MPLS, along with migration from RouterOS v6 to v7 for network design and troubleshooting.

RouterOS supports RPKI for BGP prefix validation using the Resource Public Key Infrastructure, enabling secure route origin verification via RTR protocol. Configuration includes setting up RTR servers and applying filters based on RPKI validity status to accept or reject routes.

Overview of BGP protocol basics.

This section provides guides for configuring and understanding unicast routing protocols including BGP, OSPF, RIP, IS-IS, BFD, RPKI, and EVPN in MikroTik RouterOS.

This page outlines the steps and considerations for upgrading MikroTik RouterOS to version 7, detailing compatibility with features like BGP, OSPF, MPLS, and user manager settings. It highlights mandatory parameters for BGP connections, merged OSPF menus, and cautions about MPLS configuration backups.

The VPLS page introduces MikroTik RouterOS's Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) interface, detailing its use as a transparent ethernet tunnel with LDP or MP-BGP protocols. It covers VPLS features like pseudowire signaling, fragmentation, and BGP-based autodiscovery, along with prerequisites for MPLS label distribution and i
