Mikrotik PPTP Client Setup

Here are step by step to setup PPTP Client on Mikrotik. First, create a new PPTP interface by click PPP menu, then add PPTP Client. Please make sure to enter the following data in the fields:
On General Tab :
  • Name: Anything you want, but if creating multiple connections it makes sense to name them like "pptp-out1"
  • Max MTU + Max MRU: Set to 1400
On Dial Out tab :
  • Connect To: IP or Host your VPN / PPTP server
  • User: Your VPN account username
  • Password: Your PPTP password.
  • Check "Dial On Demand" to ensure that the connection is being dialed when needed but disconnected.
  • Check "Add Default Route" to ensure correct traffic routing.
  • Allow: Leave all authentication methods checked, as it should be by default already.
  • Leave the "Enabled" checkbox unchecked, we still have to do some things.
  • Click on "OK".
Now please go to "IP" tab and select "Firewall" and "NAT".
  • In "Chain", select "srcnat", and check the "Enabled" checkbox.
  • In "Out. Interface", select the name of the PPTP VPN connection you just created and check its checkbox.
  • In "Action", select "Masquerade".
  • Click "OK".
Go the "Mangle" tab, select "Add new".
  • In "Chain", select "prerouting".
  • In "Src. Adress", enter the IP range you want to have routed through the VPN connection. To route all IPs in the Mikrotik routers subnet (assuming the router is 192.168.88.1), enter "192.168.88.2-192.168.88.254". Check the checkbox next to this field.
  • In "Action", select "mark routing".
  • In "New Routing Mark", here enter any name for the routing mark, e.g. "pptp-conn"
  • Click "OK".
Go to "IP" and then to "Routes" and "Add New".
  • Dst. Address: has to be "0.0.0.0/0".
  • Gateway: Here enter the name of the VPN connection you created. (e.g. "pptp-out1")
  • Routing Mark: select the routing mark you created before. (e.g. "pptp-conn")
  • Click "OK".
Go to "IP" and then to "DNS".
  • Select "Static" and now "Settings"
  • Check "Enabled"
  • In the "Servers" fields, enter OpenDNS servers,"8.8.8.8" into one field, and "8.8.4.4" into another.
  • Check "Allow Remote Requests".
  • Click "OK".
Now it depends: if you've set your gateway router to set the IPs for its connected devices automatically via DHCP, you need to change the DHCP-client settings of the Mikrotik router - otherwise it will override the DNS settings you've just set.
If you have set all IPs in your network manually, you can skip this step :
  • Go to "IP" and "DHCP Client".
  • Doubleclick your dhcp entry and then uncheck "Use Peer DNS".
  • Now click "OK."
That's all, now we're going to test the PPTP connection.

Usability Of Wireless Tools Mikrotik

Usability Of Wireless Tools Mikrotik Explanation of the use of Wireless Tools-Mikrotik Mikrotik Router has Wireless functionality and features that we can take advantage of for communication between devices with Mikrotik wireless communication using the media. But not all Mikrotik Wireless feature can use this, because not all types of Mikrotik is no Wireless Card. Usability Of Wireless Tools Mikrotik Call it Mikrotik RB 750 who only got 5 ethernet interface and without the wireless interface because there is no wireless card. Specific to Mikrotik Pool, most could use Wireless because it features a Mini PCI slot is available for the wireless card. OK, this time we will learn wireless wireless usage i.e. Mikrotik tools standard Mikrotik. Wireless tools is very important in building wireless networks with mikrotik, to monitor and monitor the condition of the wireless network around the US. To use the wireless tools, you can use the winbox and into the Wireless menu. ...

Discussion Of The RoMon Mikrotik

Discussion Of The RoMon Mikrotik RoMON was abbreviated from the Router Management Overlay Network which is a new feature on Mikrotik RouterOS version 6.28. This may still feature RoMON alien to You, because it is available in a new version of RouterOS and WinBox. Well, to find out more what it RoMON Mikrotik, let's discuss in this article. The Meaning Of The RoMON What is RoMON? RoMON (Router Management Overlay Network) is a Mikrotik proprietary protocol (the protocol is only supported on devices Mikrotik), which can make the connection secure layer2 (secure) to MikroTik devices either through Physical connection ( Ethernet) or Layer2 Tunnel.  In addition, RoMON also has the following features: Discovery and management MikroTik devices via Ping, SSH, Winbox (version 3.0. rc 9 and above). Able to do discovery (search) the MikroTik devices enable RoMON which has gone through multiple hops. So with this we can detect RoMON device on WinBox Mikrotik Mikrotik dev...

Select Switching or Bridging of Master/Slave Port?

This question may arise when we want to create multiple interfaces at the Mikrotik to be one segment. There are some options that we can use, including IE can use Bridging techniques or use the Switching harness mode Master Slave port and Port. Both give the same results as if, but actually there is a difference. The configuration of the Master/Slave Switch Port using a special switching chip embedded on RouterBoard, so as not to overload the CPU. Mikrotik will not get too big a burden of switching on the CPU even though his passing traffic is very high. The illustrations were like in the picture above. From the illustration above pictures it can be seen that acts as a Master Port eth2 and eth3-5 as a Slave Port that uses the switching chip.
