MIKROTIK:-Hotspot Configuration On Bridge Interface

There is an another features of mikrotik to run the Hotspot on bridge interface . As I discussed on my previous chapters  Bridge is just a combination of multiple port and this interface will be act a single port internally .


if you want to run multiple HOTSPOT server instance on each interfaces that would be a like overhead on the router so if you want to use multiple LAN port on specific services then that would be better to configure the bridge interface using multiple ports and then after you can run the Hotspot on that bridge interface.

Network Diagram Given Below .

Here , I am not going on the step by step to configure because the configuration is same as normal configuration but only you have to create the bridge interface before you run HOTspot on bridge Interface .


Create one Bridge and assign the ETh-1,2,3 inside that bridge .Here I am going to show you all the things in single picture.

Create a bridge (In my case i have kept the name as laxmi)

Create a hotspot sever on that bridge interface .

In my above Picture I have removed the physical interface from interface list and I have assigned the bridge interface which is named as laxmi.



NOTE:- Some key points .



MTU value Should be same in all interfaces .
Speed and Duplex Should be same in all interfaces .



You don't need to change anything at any where except these changes what I Did on my above picture .
