  • @tim6053
    @tim6053 7 лет назад +1

    Ok, so after the last comments, I started from square-one. To get the best results, it is preferable to do a "reset-configuration" prior to starting the process of the "Load Balancing" exercise. In my case, I had been using the router for other things, and a lot of little settings had been changed causing (I suspect), unpredictable results. I also had saved, and exported the configuration settings to a file so I could paste them in one at a time to ensure I could see what was happening.
    So, after doing all that, it now seems to work perfectly.. :-) :-)
    Thanks !!

    Hi TKSJa
    Thanks for this informative and valuable guide.
    As the gateway add is local ip add of internet connected device, what if the internet is down, but your connectivity with that device is up, as ping will still be alive?
    further for 3 WAN connections, will be the per connection classifer instead of 2/0 and 2/1?

    TKSJa, I really enjoy your tutorials, but I'm too dumb to implement your scripting. I want to do something akin to load-balancing with unequal ISP's. I have a 5-port MikroTik hAPac2 router. Is it possible to purchase or otherwise attain a RouterOS pre-configured and 'plug & play' that I can just change the relevant IP (interface) values to match my needs? Thanks (John)

  • @JankyVzla
    @JankyVzla 7 лет назад +2

    You really are the best ... And if for example, the two connections are dynamic. It would take some script to check if the Gateway switches to automatically put it without losing connection. Could you explain what would be the best script ... The two connections you are using are the same speed? For example if I have two connections of different speeds, I would use the pcc 2/0 and 2/1 or I must make the calculation to determine how many connections I want for each WAN .. I wait for your prompt response and apologize for my bad english.

    • @frostsmaker8966
      @frostsmaker8966 7 лет назад

      As for if it's dynamic, you can use router to create static IP from dynamic IP, and then connect the router to routerboard (mikrotik). And for load balancing, there is no setting for the number of connections. It will automatically looking for different interface connection if the other one is full, or busy. Load balancing is like parallel in a battery set up. It give the same speed, but more stable without any problem, you can use 2 different ISP to provide the best stable connection.

    • @JankyVzla
      @JankyVzla 7 лет назад

      I have been applying a script to avoid using a router. But I would like to know what would be the best script if we have dynamic addresses (without router) ... My other question is:
      For example: I have two wan: one of 8MB and the other of 2MB ..
      I understand according to the video and your comment that they are only needed; Two rules of pcc; Is that correct?
      I have seen a calculation that applies to know exactly how many connections should be used to make an accurate balance:
      Example: 1
      WAN1: 8MB
      WAN2: 2MB
      Total: 10MB
      It divides: the speed of WAN1 between the total of mb: 10mbps (for this example) and multiplies * 100
      WAN1 = 8/10 = 0.80% * 100 = 80%
      WAN2 = 2/10 = 0.20% * 100 = 20%
      This means that 80% of the connections should go by the wan1 and the rest by the wan2
      Then determine how many groups for each connection (multiply the group
      of connections that are desired between the number of connections that
      must go for each wan) must obtain a whole number
      WAN1 = 5 Conn * 80% = 4
      WAN2 = 5 Conn * 20% = 1
      Therefore it is determined that 4 rules must be obtained in the mangle for the wan1 and only 1 connection for the wan 2
      It would be correct to do it this way ...
      Thanks for your comments ...

    • @frostsmaker8966
      @frostsmaker8966 7 лет назад

      Yeah your welcome. If your WAN1 is 8 mbps, and WAN2 is 2 mbps this means your highest speed is 8 mbps, you didn't get the speed of 10 mbps but 8+2 mbps. you will get bandwidth equal to 10 mbps. You can set more than 2 wan on routerboard, so I don't think you should create rule in mangle for the number of connection as for it will automatically distribute a balance connection.
      I have a question :
      1. I want to attach a web server (Local Server) for my wireless network in ether4 (IP : 192.168.144.2).
      2. I want when they type : www.juicyjust.com, they will be directed to the intended IP (192.168.144.2).
      3. How to make the user go to my website instead of other real site (global website)?
      I had did my research, but I'm not sure. This is the script :
      =======================================================
      ip dns static> add name=www.juicyjust.com address=192.168.144.2
      =======================================================
      Will this work just with that? Please help me.

    • @frostsmaker8966
      @frostsmaker8966 7 лет назад +1

      You can set a PCC rules for that,
      add chain=prerouting dst-address-type=!local in-interface=Local per-connection-classifier=both-addresses-and-ports:2/1 action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=WAN1_conn passthrough=yes
      add chain=prerouting dst-address-type=!local in-interface=Local per-connection-classifier=both-addresses-and-ports:2/1 action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=WAN1_conn passthrough=yes
      add chain=prerouting dst-address-type=!local in-interface=Local per-connection-classifier=both-addresses-and-ports:2/1 action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=WAN1_conn passthrough=yes
      add chain=prerouting dst-address-type=!local in-interface=Local per-connection-classifier=both-addresses-and-ports:2/1 action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=WAN1_conn passthrough=yes
      add chain=prerouting dst-address-type=!local in-interface=Local per-connection-classifier=both-addresses-and-ports:2/2 action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=WAN2_conn passthrough=yes
      or something like that.

I have configure my mikrotik router with dhcp client and ppoe client but i got confused while accepting dst-address beacause when i configure WAN1 as ppoe client it gives out address like 202.51.84.11 and network 103.10.30.4,how can i know cidr of this network so i can use it on mangle rule to accept dst-address ?please help

If distance is 1 and 1 all works but if I have to do a failover with difference distance (in case LTE I have to use it only in emergency case) doesnt'work.

    Hello dear sir we live in Afghanistan and follow your RUclips ، my question is about Load balancing. I have three networks that are dynamic on the ISP rout، how can I combine these three DSL networks to match the speed of the internet. I mean when. we join these three networks the speed test of internet will show one speed test .

      The connections can't be merged, you can only balance the load between them.

    My WAN ip address changes everytime , so I can't use Dst. Address, so this doesn't work for me

    I want multiple connection to fail-over. In your configuration if any link goes down it will fail over but if the link is up but the ISP end has internet issue the connection does not failover. If you know how to fix this please help. Thanks in advance.

    Good explanation but it would be more helpful to start from a clean slate. Your bridge was already configured, with ether2 set as master.
    You still get a 👍🏼 and sub tho..

    Another question: Could you achieve the same with Bonding the two Interfaces ? It seems simpler setup actually

    • @user-sc1mv5cy2b
      @user-sc1mv5cy2b 3 года назад

      How do you bond two interfaces on the same router? I understand that bonding is on the router-to-router level

    • @increasedw
      @increasedw 3 года назад

      For bonding to work shouldn't both wan interfaces be from the same ISP? Using two different ISPs is said to cause issues in bonding or am I wrong?

    Hi, this worked like a charm. Tested 4k streaming, pulled the cable and it kept going without a problem. However, if my ISP router loses connection, the failover doesn’t work. Is it because the ISP router’s IP (e.g. 192.168.100.1) can still be seen? What is the workaround?
    I found this in the Mikrotik wiki. Could this help?
    /ip firewall filter
    add action=reject chain=forward connection-mark=WAN1 out-interface=ether1 reject-with=icmp-network-unreachable
    add action=reject chain=forward connection-mark=WAN2 out-interface=ether2 reject-with=icmp-network-unreachable
