Network Services
Network services documentation covers DHCP, DNS, ARP, Cloud services, proxy features, SOCKS, OpenFlow, and related services. Use this section to configure network-facing support services.
ARP
This page documents the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) functionality in MikroTik RouterOS, explaining how IP addresses are mapped to MAC addresses. It covers ARP table properties, read-only flags, VRF associations, and ARP modes (disabled, enabled, proxy ARP), including configuration examples for static entries and interface-specific settings.

DHCP
The MikroTik RouterOS documentation page describes the DHCP client functionality, explaining how to configure and manage IP address assignment via DHCP. It covers client properties such as default route handling, DNS/NTP integration, and VLAN priority settings, along with read-only status indicators like assigned IP addresses and DHCP server details.
DNS
This page introduces DNS functionality in MikroTik RouterOS, explaining how to configure the router as a DNS cache or primary server with options for remote requests, caching policies, and dynamic server integration. It details configuration properties like cache size, TTL settings, and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support.
Openflow
RouterOS supports OpenFlow protocols 1.0 and 1.3 for SDN integration, enabling centralized traffic management via controller applications that access switch data paths. It includes basic statistics support and requires careful configuration to avoid disrupting regular networking when using OpenFlow-enabled interfaces.
