Summary

RouterOS supports VLAN on wireless interfaces. Configuration examples contain information about VLAN cooperation with wireless interface features. Described cases work in the same way but examples show different approaches how to forward VLANs over wireless interfaces. For example we use wlan1 (Cafe Wifi users) and VirtualAP wlan2 (Wifi for company employees) on one device, and we want to separate both traffics with VLANs. The configurations are sorted by precedence of recommended usage.

Examples

Example with vlan-filtering bridge and wireless vlan-mode (Recommended)

Vlan forwarding over wireless interface

Bridge VLAN Filtering since RouterOS v6.41 provides VLAN aware Layer2 forwarding and VLAN tag modifications within the bridge.

R1:

  • Add necessary VLAN interfaces on ethernet interface to make it as a VLAN trunk port. Add ip addresses on VLAN interfaces.
[admin@R1] >
/interface vlan
add interface=ether1 name=vlan111 vlan-id=111
add interface=ether1 name=vlan222 vlan-id=222

/ip address
add address=192.168.1.1/24 interface=vlan111
add address=192.168.2.1/24 interface=vlan222

R2:

  • Add VirtualAP under wlan1 interface and create wireless security-profiles for wlan1 and wlan2
[admin@R2] >
/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no mode=ap-bridge security-profile=vlan111 ssid=vlan111 vlan-id=111 vlan-mode=use-tag
add disabled=no master-interface=wlan1 name=wlan2 security-profile=vlan222 ssid=vlan222 vlan-id=222 vlan-mode=use-tag

Note: It is important to set wlan1,wlan2 vlan-mode to "use-tag".


  • Create bridge with vlan-filtering=yes
  • Add necessary bridge ports
  • Add tagged interfaces under interface bridge vlan section with correct vland-ids
[admin@R2] >
/interface bridge
add fast-forward=no name=bridge1 vlan-filtering=yes

/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2
add bridge=bridge1 interface=wlan1
add bridge=bridge1 interface=wlan2
/interface bridge vlan
add bridge=bridge1 tagged=ether2,wlan1 vlan-ids=111
add bridge=bridge1 tagged=ether2,wlan2 vlan-ids=222

Warning: Some devices have a built-in switch chip that can switch packets between Ethernet ports with wire-speed performance. Bridge VLAN filtering disables hardware offloading (except on CRS3xx series switches), which will prevent packets from being switched, this does not affect Wireless interfaces as traffic through them cannot be offloaded to the switch chip either way.


R3:

  • Add IP address on wlan1 interface.
  • Create wireless security-profile compatible with R2 wlan1.
[admin@R3] >
/ip address
add address=192.168.1.3/24 interface=wlan1

/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no security-profile=vlan111

R4:

  • Add ip address on wlan1 interface.
  • Create wireless security-profile compatible with R2 wlan2.
[admin@R4] >
/ip address
add address=192.168.2.4/24 interface=wlan1

/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no security-profile=vlan222

Example with separate bridges

Warning: This type of configuration is known to cause issues with RSTP and other protocols in 6.41.x and newer versions, you should use bridge VLAN filtering method instead. This example is left for legacy reasons.


R1:

  • Add necessary VLAN interfaces on ethernet interface to make it as a VLAN trunk port. Add IP addresses on VLAN interfaces.
[admin@R1] >
/interface vlan
add interface=ether1 name=vlan111 vlan-id=111
add interface=ether1 name=vlan222 vlan-id=222

/ip address
add address=192.168.1.1/24 interface=vlan111
add address=192.168.2.1/24 interface=vlan222

R2:

  • Add VirtualAP under wlan1 interface. (Also create wireless security-profiles for wlan1 and wlan2)
[admin@R2] >
/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] disabled=no mode=ap-bridge security-profile=vlan111 ssid=vlan111
add disabled=no master-interface=wlan1 name=wlan2 security-profile=vlan222 ssid=vlan222
  • Add necessary VLAN interfaces on ethernet interface to make it as a VLAN trunk port.
  • Add bridges for each VLAN.
  • Add VLAN interfaces to their corresponding bridges and wireless interfaces to each bridge.
[admin@R2] >
/interface vlan
add interface=ether2 name=vlan111-ether2 vlan-id=111
add interface=ether2 name=vlan222-ether2 vlan-id=222

/interface bridge
add name=bridge-vlan111
add name=vlan222-bridge

add bridge=bridge-vlan111 interface=wlan1
add bridge=vlan222-bridge interface=vlan222-ether2
add bridge=vlan222-bridge interface=wlan2

R3:

  • Add IP address on wlan1 interface.
  • Create wireless security-profile compatible with R2 wlan1.
[admin@R3] >
/ip address
