Manual:IP/Services
Applies to RouterOS: v3, v4
Summary
Sub-menu: /ip service
This document lists protocols and ports used by various MikroTik RouterOS services. It helps you to determine why your MikroTik router listens to certain ports, and what you need to block/allow in case you want to prevent or grant access to the certain services. Please see the relevant sections of the Manual for more explanations.
Properties
Note that it is not possible to add new services, only existing service modifications are allowed.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| address (IP address/netmask | IPv6/0..128; Default: ) | List of IP/IPv6 prefixes from which the service is accessible. |
| certificate (name; Default: none) | The name of the certificate used by particular service. Applicable only for services that depends on certificates (www-ssl, api-ssl) |
| name (name; Default: none) | Service name |
| port (integer: 1..65535; Default: ) | The port particular service listens on |
Example
For example allow telnet only from specific IPv6 address range
[admin@dzeltenais_burkaans] /ip service> set api address=10.5.101.0/24,2001:db8:fade::/64
[admin@dzeltenais_burkaans] /ip service> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid
# NAME PORT ADDRESS CERTIFICATE
0 telnet 23
1 ftp 21
2 www 80
3 ssh 22
4 X www-ssl 443 none
5 api 8728 10.5.101.0/24
2001:db8:fade::/64
6 winbox 8291
Service Ports
Sub-menu: /ip firewall service-port
Hosts behind a NAT-enabled router do not have true end-to-end connectivity. Therefore some Internet protocols might not work in scenarios with NAT.
To overcome these limitations RouterOS includes a number of NAT helpers, that enable NAT traversal for various protocols.
Note: If connection tracking is not enabled then firewall service ports will be shown as inactive
| Helper | Description |
|---|---|
| FTP | FTP service helper |
| h323 | H323 service helper |
| irc | |
| PPTP | PPTP tunneling helper. |
| SIP | SIP helper. Additional option "sip-direct-media" allows redirect the RTP media stream to go directly from the caller to the callee. Default value is yes. |
| tftp |
