[Mikrotik] Routing VPN Issue

2015-02-07 Thread Chris Gotstein
Trying to figure out an odd routing issue with a PtP VPN setup.  Diagram 
Below:


(10.7.65.0 subnet)
|
|
Sonicwall (10.7.65.1)
|
|
Mikrotik RB (10.7.65.2)
|
|
(IPSEC/IPIP VPN)
|
|
Mikrotik RB (172.23.65.1)
|
|
(172.23.65.0 subnet)

Problem I'm having is connecting to devices on the 10.7.65.0 subnet from 
the 172.23.65.0 subnet.  The problem also happens when you to a PPtP VPN 
directly to the 10.7.65.2 router.  Running an IP scan from the 10.7.65.2 
router shows all the devices on the 10.7.65.0 subnet.


Also, when running an IP scan from the 10.7.65.2 router on the 
172.23.65.0 subnet shows every IP address with the same MAC address and 
0ms, but does ping the devices correctly.


I am running OSPF between the MT routers.  I do not have access to the 
Sonicwall device as it's being managed by another company.  Any thoughts 
would be appreciated.

Re: [Mikrotik] RB915 Wireless Station DHCP Client

2013-06-18 Thread Chris Gotstein
That's my next step.  Contact the consultant that set it up, ask for a 
static IP and what the exact security settings are.

What you're describing sounds something like the behavior of those lame 
Scientific Atlanta cable modems that the some of the oldest Cox customers still 
have.  They would issue exactly one DHCP address and make exactly one ARP entry 
during any power cycle.  If you tried to substitute devices without powering 
down the modem, it wouldn't talk to you.

You could always cheat and just appropriate an unused IP address in the AP's 
address range as your static.  Especially if you can get the AP admin to 
shorten his pool to guarantee it to you.

Re: [Mikrotik] RB750UP PoE Question

2013-03-25 Thread Chris Gotstein

This is what I can find on the Polycom:

Max draw 4.3w

Power
• Built-in, auto-sensing IEEE 802.3af Power
Over Ethernet (Class2)
• External universal input AC adapter
(optional4
; 24V DC@500mA)

Looks like the 751 draws a max of 10w, though i could go with a 951 
which only draws 3w max.

Re: [Mikrotik] Mikrotik AP and FreeRadius

First, you probably want to use RADIUS accounting messages to track connected 
clients rather than Access Requests.

Also, the NAS-Port-Id will always show as the wireless interface's name for 
wirelessly connected clients. You'll want to use the RADIUS accounting session 
ID for track unique registrations.

[Mikrotik] Mikrotik AP and FreeRadius

2012-12-31 Thread Chris Gotstein
I'm setting up Radius authentication to link our billing system and 
access points.  What i'm doing is using FreeRadius as a proxy to our 
billing radius server to overcome some limitations that it has.  I have 
no problem getting the radios to authentication, but when i query our 
billing software to see who's connected, i'm only seeing 1 mac address 
per AP.  It appears that since everyone on the mikrotik AP is connecting 
to wlan1, i'm only seeing that 1 port come through radius.  Is there a 
way in FreeRadius to add a unique port for each mac address authenticated?

[Mikrotik] Cisco 5500 WLAN Controller with MT Hotspot

2012-09-05 Thread Chris Gotstein
I want to use the hotspot feature on a MT router with a Cisco WLAN 
Controller 5500.  We are using VLANs on the swithes and APs.  I have 
configured the controller to setup a new WLAN with the correct VLAN ID. 
 I have put the MT router on the VLAN ID and also on the VLAN1 with a 
default route on the core router pointing the correct subnet to the MT 
router.  MT router can contact all devices in the network regardless of 
the VLAN they are on, but it cannot ping the WLAN controller.  The WLAN 
controller cannot ping the MT router.  I can get to the MT router 
without any issues from anywhere on the network.  Anyone every setup a 
MT router hotspot with a Cisco WLAN Controller?

[Mikrotik] Mikrotik NAT and Netspective

2010-10-05 Thread Chris Gotstein
Ran into a very strange problem between a Mikrotik router doing NAT and
our Netspective bandwidth shaper.  About a year ago i ran into this
problem with a client and chalked it up to something funky and just
removed the rule from the netspective box.  Today, i installed another
MT box and saw the same problem.  What happens is when there is a hard
limit set on the public ip that the MT box has, any decent size
downloads will fail and strange timeouts start to occur.  If i remove
the rule from the netspective, the problem goes away, but then the
client is set to wide open bandwidth.   I know i can do simple queues on
the MT to get around this, but i'd rather do all my shaping on the
netspective box.  Anyone else run into this issue or something similar?

Re: [Mikrotik] Stable release ?

2010-08-29 Thread Chris Gotstein
Been running 4.11 on all our APs for quite a while now.  Been very 
stable for us.  Also have 4.11 loaded on business customer routers 
without issues.

What is a good stable release?

Due to replacing some damaged Routerboards with the 750G, I find myself with
a mixture of Versions 3.6 all the way up to 4.5 in our network.
We're using the Dude and of course version 3.6 of it will not talk to the
version 4 Routerboards, and the latest version of Dude will not talk to the
old ones.
Since I don't think I can run Ver 3.x on the 750g units, I guess I have to
upgrade everything to something that will all work in common.

What is recommended as a stable version that is recent?  We aren't doing
anything esoteric on the router- mostly just running Hotspot and a bit of
routing as well.

Re: [Mikrotik] Was 5 Mhz, now WPA TKIP

2010-04-21 Thread Chris Gotstein
Ah!  my bad.  In that situation, i have run into some older or odd gear
that didn't like or didn't offer the option of AES when using WPA/WPA2.
 On the "n" gear i've never run into an issue with WPA2 using AES and i
almost always configure it for AES.

2010-04-21 Thread Chris Gotstein
About a year ago we stopped using encryption between our APs and
clients.  There were to many issues between different vendors that would
cause things to break.  Since dropping encryption, we've have far less
issues with radio's locking up or having trouble connecting.

Running MT APs with XR2 cards.  No problems connecting Tranzeo CPQ/SL2
or UBNT radios when using a 10mhz channel.

I do agree on how well we like our Tranzeo radios.  I just wish they
could come down on the price of the CPQ-19f radio.  We can get a
bullet2HP w/ 19db panel for a lot less.  The price on the
CPQ-15f/SL2-15f is perfect and competitive with a Bullet2 w/ 16db panel.

[Mikrotik] VPN Issues

2010-04-05 Thread Chris Gotstein
I have a RB433AH that i'm trying to VPN into and access the devices on
the other side.  The devices are all in the 192.168.1.0/24 range, the RB
has 192.168.1.1 as its address.  Setup and configured the VPN like i've
done on a bunch of other boxes, but when i connect to it, i can only
access the RB on 192.168.1.1, i cannot access the other devices behind
the RB, ie 192.168.1.2.  If i run the scan tool from the RB, it can see
the devices.  Not really sure what i'm missing here.  Any thoughts?

Re: [Mikrotik] [Spam Bayesian - ] - Re: RB411AH Ethernet Issues - Bayesian Filter detected spam

2010-03-25 Thread Chris Gotstein
The only issues i see with auto-negotiate not working is when you go
switch to switch or switch to router, and Cisco recommends that you
always lock the speed and duplex when connecting between switches and
routers.  In the past, there were issues with the software in the switch
that would cause auto-negotiate not to work, but for the most part i
haven't seen to many issues with it not working in the past couple years.

Not sure what you mean?  Been using Cisco switches/routers since 1998,
never had any major issues with them.  But they are definitly not plug
and play.  They have their quirks, but usually it's a config problem or

Always need to lock ports between switches, routers, etc.  Been doing
Cisco long enough to know that.  Usually don't have to many problems
with auto-negotiate on workstations and other end devices as long as the
software on the switch is up-to-date.

[Mikrotik] RB411AH Ethernet Issues

2010-03-25 Thread Chris Gotstein
I have a RB411AH up on a tower acting as a 2.4 AP.  This morning i lost
contact with the radio, but there was still power to the unit and the
switch showed it was connected.  Rebooted the RB, and i was able to
access it again, but it was very slow.  Decided to upgrade the software
and copying the file locally took forever, very slow tranfer.  Replaced
the PoE and the ethernet surge, as well as the ethernet patch cables.
Same problem, very slow data rates to the radio.  I'm guessing it's a
blown ethernet port on the board.  Ordering a replacement today, but
wondering if anyone else has ran into this issue before?

Re: [Mikrotik] MT AP with Tranzeo CPE 5.8Ghz

2010-02-08 Thread Chris Gotstein
As a followup to this, i noticed that the MT wants to start scanning
channels at 5175Mhz.  The tranzeo client does start looking for channels
till 5275.  I believe the tranzeo unit is correct and the MT is running
out US specs for the 5Ghz ranges allowed.  I have set the MT to use
regulatory domain and choose United States, but that doesn't seem to
have any affect on the frequencies available.  Seems like a MT bug.

I pickup a RB411 with XR5 card in it and i'm trying to get it working
with our tranzeo clients (TR-5a, SL5).  Problem seems to be with DFS set
to radar detect on the MT.  When this is enabled, the tranzeo client

 I'm running 4.5 on the MT.  Anyone else having this issue with DFS?

I have a client looking to setup VPN connections between 6 remote
offices and their main facility.  The main facility currently has a
RB433AH router.  Will this router be able to handle the load of
terminating 6 remote VPN sessions and handling traffic?  The remote
locations have connections ranging from 3mb-6mb.  For the remote
locations, will RB433 work, or should i go with RB433AH at each remote
location? Thanks.

Re: [Mikrotik] MT 5.8 AP and Tranzeo CPE

2010-01-29 Thread Chris Gotstein
Plenty of Tranzeo's, but we've never gotten into 5.8 with MT.  For the
most part we've been very happy with the Tranzeo APs, but with more load
we are starting to see problems.  We've had very good success with MT on
the 2.4 side, so i'm hoping it will work just as well on the 5.8 side.

[Mikrotik] MT 5.8 AP and Tranzeo CPE

2010-01-29 Thread Chris Gotstein
Anyone have experience using a MT AP with 802.11a card connecting to
Tranzeo TR-5x or TR-SL5 CPE radios?  I'm curious if the MT supports the
same channel widths as Tranzeo, ie 20Mhz, 10Mhz-10Mhz spacing,
10Mhz-5Mhz spacing.  I would probably use a RB411AH with XR5 radio.  Thanks.

Re: [Mikrotik] XR9 cards?

2010-01-28 Thread Chris Gotstein
I would be very careful offering VoIP on Non LOS (900 Mhz) service.  You
will get very choppy performance due to the retransmits that are
inherent in a non-line of site system.  The only nlos system i've seen
that handles voice fairly well is Canopy, and that has a lot to do with
the sync they use.  Measuring MOS like Josh suggested is a good start to
see of the link will be able to handle a voice connection.

Re: [Mikrotik] [SPAM] - Re: WDS - Found word(s) list error in the Text body

2009-12-03 Thread Chris Gotstein
1)  under
load.  If I have a single peer, then my throughput is 1/2.  With 3
peers, 1/8th.  3) WDS doesn't need the MAC address to route the RF
traffic, so it is transparent, if it is WDS-AP to WDS-AP.
WDS is a poorly designed hack that sort of works for many cases.  But
it has many tradeoffs, the key one being throughout.  
Backhaul modes

and meshing protocols add smarts to the routing of the traffic, and
that is why they generally are transparent and fast.

Think of it like a HUB. All ports (APs) send and receive the same
traffic.

The
  
  

 hassle is that when you switch the Tranzeo to AP mode, you need to


  

 get into it again to enter the MAC address of the "partner".  But
if you


then switch the MT into client mode, it will let you get back
into the Tranzeo.  Then finish up the MAC address rigmarole.



  

 Finally, go back to the MT and switch it to WDS as previously



described.
  
  

 Note that you may have to "hunt" for the SSID on the Tranzeo if
it's


never been an AP before.

Re: [Mikrotik] Wireless security....

2009-10-30 Thread Chris Gotstein
We started out use WPA2 AES encryption along with MAC address
authentication for all our clients.  Over the years, I just found to
many issues with using WPA between different vendors.  So we've ditched
doing any encryption.  We rely on MAC authentication and we also
switched over to using 10Mhz channels.

We do DHCP for all our end users, and hand out static IPs via dhcp to
those with different speed packages.  I would like to someday start
using RADIUS to do some authentication, but our current billing program
makes it a chore to setup and use.

Re: [Mikrotik] Upgrades

2009-10-27 Thread Chris Gotstein
I have found that with MT software, they don't always list all the 
changes and fixes and/or enhancements in the change log.  I do agree 
that the 3 week waiting period is good though, usually anything real bad 
is found by then.  I like to keep the RB's current within reason.  I 
never like getting to far behind the releases.  I try to pick 1 unit i 
can "test" and then if all goes well for a few days, then do the rest.


Terri Kelley wrote:
So then I would have a question. Often you might have performance 
enhancements with a newer version that you may not at that time need, 
but might later. Been there. Also there have been a couple of instances 
where upgrading from an older version was more difficult than from 
something more current. So is it then better to maintain a current 
version rather than skip versions?


Ok... I might slap myself here. I have also seen where the "new" version 
led to problems. So maybe better to wait and let others "test" that 
version?

your issue may be resolved.  Other than that, I always recommend NEVER
using a MT release that has not been out for less than 3 weeks.  At 3

I've been setting it to auto, does it matter a whole lot 1 way or the 
other?  Are others forcing the preamble?

For some reason it doesn't actually use the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button =/
The first link reads:

The 18 byte ("long preamble") preamble is used to signal "here is a train of
data coming" to the receiver. The 802.11b standard gives an option of
reducing the size of the PLCP preamble to 9 bytes *("short preamble"), this
significantly increases the throughput performance at higher data rates*.

One downside to the PLCP is that the PLCP preamble and header is always
transmitted at 1Mbps, regardless of the transmission rate for the rest of
the data. This means that the transfer time is constant at 192 Usec
(microseconds) for the PLCP with long preamble. The short preamble version
does a little better, transmitting the shorter preamble at 1Mbps and the
header at 2Mbps, shortening the transmit time to 96 Usec.

Re: [Mikrotik] 5.8GHz Grids

2009-06-11 Thread Chris Gotstein
Something that short you may want to look at using a Tranzeo TR-SL5-16f 
radio.  The new firmware allows it to run in AP and PtP mode.  Plus they 
just dropped the prices on them.  I have one setup and it works great at 
a short distance.

Re: [Mikrotik] Tranzeo - Mikrotik versions

2009-06-08 Thread Chris Gotstein
There are issues with 4.0.2 if you are running WPA/AES on the Tranzeo 
devices.  Otherwise, i've been running 3.24 and 4.0.2 without encryption 
without any problems.

Ok I would like some definite answers on what works and what doesn't.  I
have 3 towers that I am dumping all the old StarOS Wrap boards off of and
going to RB411a.  The only thing that attaches to these AP's is Tranzeo's.
I know that MT 3.17 works ok with Tranzeo's  What about 3.24?  What Tranzeo
firmware is working.  Currently I have all 3.6.7 and would like to go to
4.0.2 for the Config upload download ability but read some posts that you
start to get the disassociate- reassociate issues with that version.

Re: [Mikrotik] Trango and MT Queues

No.  1 tower as 6 APs which feed into the PC running RouterOS.  Each AP 
has it's own ethernet port and subnet.  There are 2 other remote towers 
that get feed through one of the APs on the tower, and there is a 
separate subnet for each of those towers.

This seems to work fairly well, for the most part the higher bandwidth

The Trango has not lost power or association since installation.

The line goes from poe of the Trango to poe of the 532.
One or two times a day (some times it goes weeks before it happens
again, others times two days in a row).

When these outages happen I can't see the cdp of ether1, but after

Carl,

Are you running all Tranzeo CPEs?  I'm thinking of just disabling the 
noise reduction since the tranzeo's can't use it anyway.  I only have 1 
or 2 clients that actually support noise reduction.

I prefer TKIP because it seems to work better with a wider range of
client devices.  As for WPA/WPA2, I'd use WPA2 if it works with your
combination of equipment choices.  I do know that AES is function on the
hardware, where tkip is a host processor function. It is possible that
there are differences in the way AES is handled by different vendors,
which may explain some of the problems when using AES with a variety of
hardware combinations.

There are several benefits to running WPA on your access points.  Some
businesses who are regulated by those that do no understand our
technology (pharmacies fit this category) find some comfort in the fact
that their link is encrypted.  Another benefit is that it makes it more
difficult for those that would steal service to do so.  

WPA and WPA2 have caused me nothing but problems from the

This is certainly a negative reality that happens when you use some
clients and WPA.

We don't make claim that we encrypt data end-to-end.  Just that it is 
encrypted between the tower and the client.  Most people are just 
worried about their neighbors being able to see their computer data.

We do get questioned a lot about security of the wireless.  People 
assume that cable and dsl is more secure because it comes over a wire. 
They hear more about wireless security issues than they do about

it can go both ways, i would rather be on the safe side and encrypt, but

Can't upgrade to 4.0.2 at this time.  There is an issue when using WPA 
and MT AP.  Causes the clients to drop and reboot constantly.  I'm 
sticking with 3.6.7 till they come up with a fix.

[Mikrotik] Channel Widths

We run mostly MT AP's and Tranzeo CPE (CPQ/SL2).  Is it possible to run 
10mhz or 5Mhz channels with MT AP and Tranzeo CPE?

[Mikrotik] Cisco to Mikrotik IPIP Tunnel Routing (Bump)

2009-04-14 Thread Chris Gotstein

(bump)

I need to setup a tunnel between a Mikrotik box and a Cisco router.  I
already have the tunnel setup, and can ping each side.  But i need to be
able to access the private ip ranges (APs, clients, etc) that are
connected to the MT box from the network that the Cisco is on.  I know
it's as simple as setting up the correct routes, but for the life of me,
i'm just not getting the right combination.  Here's a layout:

Cisco(192.168.255.253) - (tunnel1) - Mikrotik(192.168.255.254)

Need to access these subnets on the MT box:
172.16.50.0/24
172.16.9.0/24

I setup a route on the cisco as follows:

ip route 172.16.50.0 255.255.255.0 tunnel1
ip route 172.16.9.0 255.255.255.0 tunnel1

I can then ping the 172.16.50.1 address from the Cisco, which is one of
the addresses assigned to the MT box.  But if i try to ping 172.16.50.5,
which is a server beyond the MT box, it times out.

I'm pretty sure i'm missing some routes on the MT box to make this
happen.  Any suggestions?
