On a loopback interface you could use a /32
...can't think of another specific advantage off the top of my head.

Never occurred to me that I might want to, to be honest. I’m not sure what the advantages to doing it on a loopback interface would be, for this application.

For NAT, why wouldn’t you use a loopback interface intead of binding them to a physical interface?

Bah. I have a MT with 192 public addresses on one interface, doing either 1:1 nat or masquerade to each of them. The only real caveat is ‘make damn sure you have a firewall that deals with ssh/telnet/ftp login attempts’ or the CPU gets bogged down a bit, as each public IP will attract it’s own attacks.

This instance started on 2.9.44 or so, on x86 I think, and has gone through various firmware and hardware upgrades since.

for an interim move (I have to prove mikrotik to the boss) there could be as many as 90 at one point. Imagestream occasionally would get fussy if I had multiple router interfaces on the same physical network segment, does mikrotik get fussy about this?

Likely no limit. How many are you trying to put on?

Do these things have a limit to the number of secondary IPs you can put on an interface? I cant find it documented

No problems with newer 6.x Version. We’ve 6.15 and 6.25 running on them.

Seems 6.x tree matures. But it is MT. You never know ;-)).
