The page introduces MikroTik RouterOS CRS1xx and 2xx series switches, highlighting their high-performance features including Layer 2/3 switching, VLAN support, QoS tools, mirroring capabilities, and port isolation options. It details model differences, technical specifications like CPU speed and jumbo frame sizes, and provides abbreviations for VLAN-related terms.
This page presents practical case studies for configuring firewall and QoS rules in MikroTik RouterOS, covering brute-force prevention, DDoS protection, connection rate limiting, port knocking, and advanced firewall designs.
This section provides an overview of RouterOS firewall capabilities including NAT, connection tracking, and QoS features for securing traffic, classifying packets, and managing bandwidth.
Nv2 is a MikroTik proprietary wireless protocol using TDMA for efficient media access in PtMP networks, supporting both Atheros 802.11n and legacy devices without hardware upgrades. It offers dynamic rate selection, QoS, encryption, RADIUS auth, and synchronization features but is incompatible with other wireless protocols.
This documentation introduces Quality of Service (QoS) features in MikroTik RouterOS for devices with Marvell Prestera switch chips, detailing QoS prioritization, traffic shaping, and congestion management. It covers RouterOS v7.23 enhancements like lossless traffic support, dynamic buffers, and QoS device compatibility tables for various switch models.
Queue Burst feature allows temporary bandwidth bursts beyond configured limits when average traffic stays below a threshold, using burst-limit and burst-time parameters to control the burst duration and size.
This page introduces MikroTik RouterOS queueing and bandwidth management, covering HTB, PCQ, burst behavior, and queue types for traffic shaping. It explains how to configure simple and advanced queues using `/queue/simple` and `/queue/tree`, with details on rate limiting principles, CIR/MIR definitions, and warnings about queue order and target matching.
This page explains how MikroTik RouterOS implements WMM (Wi-Fi MultiMedia) and VLAN priority for QoS, detailing how traffic is categorized into access categories (background, best effort, video, voice), VLAN priority handling, and methods to set packet priorities using IP firewall mangle rules or bridge filters.
