[WISPA] Who left the web proxy open?

For the past month I've been noticing the bandwidth on one of our upstreams going through the roof. When doing the math for each tower location, it added up to far less than the bandwidth through our upstream providers. So, ran Mikrotik Torch and what do you know it was all web proxy traffic.

Re: [WISPA] Who left the web proxy open?

Wow, good find, sounds like something other unsuspecting Mikroik users might run in to. So where was all the web proxy data comming from? Was it all random external connections from the Internet? One moral to the story is turn of web proxy, but. are there best practices (firewalling, session

Re: [WISPA] Who left the web proxy open?

By default webproxy is disabled. If it's enabled by default it's open to be used by anyone. The best thing to do when enabling the webproxy is to create a list of accepted ips authorized to use the proxy then finish up with a rule denying all other ips. This would be done in the webproxy acl. Al

Also note that 333s are going by the wayside too. The 400 series is really the main workhorse right now. * --- Dennis Burgess, CCNA, A+, Mikrotik Certified Trainer WISPA Board Member - wispa.org Link Technologies, I

Re: [WISPA] Routerboard 333 vs 433

We usually use proprietary radios for customer hookups, but do ocassionally use MTs for that. It doesn't really matter too much for that sort of use; used 532, 333, 433, crossroads, etc... For absolutely everywhere we'd use an RB, we are only using 433AH for new stuff. They are not that much m

Re: [WISPA] Fw: [TowerTalk] Nello Tower question

I've had some Nello 25, and it's good. This was a couple years ago when metal prices were through the roof and inventory of tower parts was scarce. I've had Rohn that's difficult to mate too. 25,45,55 with messy galvanizing that looks like shark teeth, or is too thick at a junction. Rohn is gene
