It must be something in the water....I went several years without a VLAN call and now it seems I've done 3 or 4 this year alone. Either way, what you want is very easy to do (though it may not be so straightforward if you have not worked with MT vlans) and works correctly. NOTE: I said "works correctly" above instead of "works well" mostly because I don't like a vlan based architecture. With that caveat, as far as Mikrotik is concerned, vlans work well. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * WISPA Board Member * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
