General • Re: Wireless VLAN Trunk

Okay, thanks for this detailed reply. I just bought a MikroTik wAP ac (or rather bought it two months ago and now it was delivered) to replace the CPE 210 and it worked almost immediately

I'm kinda surprised (and if its true that MikroTik changes the ethernet frames transmitted depending on the receiver vendor with no configuration possible, i really don't like that).

Just one or two questions if this setup is just working out of luck:

I use VLAN 1 for regular traffic (untagged), and VLAN 3 for special applications (tagged). The receiving station is configured, but the "VLAN filtering" checkbox is not enabled.

To clarify a little bit:
MikroTik cAP AC (Wireless AP, Device A) <--- WLAN ---> MikroTik wAP AC (Wireless Station, Device B) <--- LAN ---> MikroTik cAP AC (Wireless AP, Device C)

- Device A:
A special WiFi Interface is configured, with VLAN 1 (no tag) as default configuration. Just under the "Bridge->VLANs" the VLAN 3 is added as tagged network to this wifi interface. VLAN filtering is enabled.

- Device B:
The wifi is configured as station, and with VLAN 1 (no tag) as configuration. Just under "Bridge->VLANs" the VLAN 3 is added to the wifi interface and ether-port. VLAN filtering is not enabled.

- Device C:
Ether 1 receives the signal, VLAN filtering enabled, ...


Is that correct so far (i mean it works), and why can VLAN filtering be disabled on the Device B?
