"wifi" mesh interface is in AP mode):Ĭode: Select all # nov/14/2021 10:31:11 by RouterOS 7.1rc6Īdd comment="tunnel using non-bridged \"mesh\" wifi interface to another Audie\ I'll post the configuration, but basically I think there are still some bugs/missing things in wifiwave2. So perhaps this is just a feature request for "station-pseudobridge" in wifiwave2 package.īe also curious if I'm missing something/someway to bridge between two Audience using wifiwave2, to eventually eat some CAKE. Obviously the EoIP tunnel isn't ideal and I suspect I've run into bugs/limits of the wifiwave2 package. I ran into another issue with wifiwave2 in that it seemingly doesn't allow the MTU to be changed (or perhaps the UI/CLI doesn't correctly reflect the change) – for my testing, I just changed the EoIP tunnel to 1500 MTU. This does in fact work, but obviously MTU is squashed. My next idea was to use a EoIP tunnel (sorta like DTLS tunnels used CAPsMAN) over the non-bridge "mesh" interface, then add the EoIP tunnel to the bridge.
Not detoured, and curious to see if there was at least someway to make this work. But my goal is bridge ONE L2 LAN between the two units, not just have them do 元 routing between them. Removing the "mesh" wifi interface from the bridge, assigning IPs and routing between the two Audience does work - so the "station" to "ap" does seem to work at 802.11-level. Basically it seems once a wifiwave2 "station" goes into a bridge, ARP doesn't work, at all. I would have though at least the far end of the wifi link would work, but if the connected router does not respond to requires for it's own IP. Changing the ARP mode of the "mesh" wifi interface had no effects – tried them all (proxy-arp, local-proxy-arp, enabled, & disabled even), in all combos on both sides, just in case. But the "mesh" wifi interface are ports of the bridge interface, the ONLY traffic that passes are the "Neighbors"/CDP broadcast but ARP goes unanswered so anything IP fails. Certainly using ap on one, station on another does just connect.
But there is only "station" mode in wifiwave2, so not so simple. Assuming all interfaces are just bridged on both units.
This is obviously possible using standard Wi-Fi package, but was trying to see if possible someway using wifiwave2.Īt the start, I actually though this be straightforward: set "station-pseudobridge" mode on "mesh" wi-fi interface on one of the Audiences, and I'd be done. Ideally being able to use VRRP on the bridge, so either LTE interface could provide internet if separated.
Basically want to test just bridging one LAN between the two units wireless with the non-mesh Wi-Fi also just bridged to same LAN. My goal was to bridge two Audience devices using the 3rd 5Ghz "mesh" interface of the devices, while using newer wireless package on the "client" Wi-Fi interfaces. Trying the wifiwave2 package on the Audience using v7.1rc6.
