On your Mikrotik bridge, you’ll want to make sure all your VLANs are bridged 
and no Horizon.

I tried something similar…
Mikrotik Core -> Fiber VLAN Trunk up tower -> Netonix -> Port based Untagged 
VLANs to APs

All the APs and the Core on the same subnet and they’ll talked to each other 
fine, like it was all one happy bridge (because it was). Upload/Download 
traffic was easily discernable from the Mikrotik because each had its own VLAN. 
No need to configure subnets for each access point and the SMs connected to 
them. I was never able to get Queues working on the VLANS on an individual 
basis though. Packet marks were unreliable (in both the IP Firewall and the 
Bridge Firewall), Simple Queues don’t recognize VLAN interfaces (nor do 
Interface Queues, for that matter). Torching the VLAN interface worked after 
adding MAC Protocol to the filter, as by the time it hit the VLAN it had gone 
through the pppoe server on the VLAN bridge.

Admittedly, it’s a pretty weird way to break up traffic on one’s core router 
per AP.

The closest thing to a MikroTik switch with PoE out is an RB750UP or 
PowerBox... which could do the job, but they're missing some abilities an 
Edgepoint has - primarily GigE and an SFP port.

Sounds like you're separating the traffic at L2 just to bring it back together.

If you want torch on each AP port, how about a mikrotik switch with PoE out?  
Those exist....I think...

I have no experience with UBNT switches, but if it doesn't provide the tools 
you need for troubleshooting, then it's not what you want.

Ok, so I'm hearing "the way you're doing it is wrong"  Is there a better way?  
Or just let the R6 act as a dumb switch, and then log into that to try to 
troubleshoot any per port issues.

Then how do I get all the Ports on the Edgepoint to share the same IP Space?

*nods* just leave the VLANs as native interfaces on the Mikrotik. No need to

It doesn't like that you're bridging all these vlans. From experience, it's 
nothing but broken-ness.

You can still torch each vlan interface you know.

I'm working on the bench with a UBNT Edgepoint (R6 model)  The newest firmware 
allows you to set per port untagged Vlans in switch mode.  I'm thinking of 
using this to power a cluster of AP's, but I'd like to keep the ability to view 
per port traffic in the mikrotik via Torch for monitoring/troubleshooting 
purposes.  My Plan was to put each port on the R6 on a different Vlan, Have a 
Trunk port to the mikrotik, then just bridge the Vlans together in the 
Mikrotik.  This mostly works, as the Mikrotik can talk to each AP, but the AP's 
cannot ping each other, and it seems that I have random packet loss from the 
Mikrotik to the AP's.  Is there a setting I'm missing that's blocking the 
traffic between Vlans, or is this a Edgepoint problem?  Or does it not like 
that I'm bridging all these Vlans that are on the same Mikrotik interface.
