What you'll learn

  • Configure, manage, and troubleshoot secure Site-to-Site VPN tunnels between multiple MikroTik routers.
  • Design and implement a centralised Hub-and-Spoke VPN topology for efficient enterprise branch connectivity.
  • Apply Split Tunnelling techniques to route specific corporate traffic over the VPN while maintaining local internet access.
  • Enforce Full Tunnelling to route all device internet traffic securely through the VPN for maximum privacy.
  • Deploy Multi-hop VPN routing to pass traffic through multiple secure intermediary nodes.

Requirements

  • Basic Networking Knowledge: Students should understand foundational networking concepts, including IP addressing, subnetting, the OSI model, and how routing works.
  • Familiarity with MikroTik RouterOS: Prior experience navigating WinBox and configuring basic settings on MikroTik routers is highly recommended.
  • Hardware or Emulation Environment: Access to at least two MikroTik routers (physical devices) or a network emulation environment like EVE-NG, GNS3, or CHR (Cloud Hosted Router) virtual machines to build the labs.
  • An Internet Connection: A stable internet connection for setting up the VPN tunnels and downloading RouterOS updates or client software.
  • Basic Command Line/WinBox Skills: Comfort using WinBox (the primary graphical management tool for MikroTik) or the RouterOS Command Line Interface (CLI).

Description

Master the deployment of modern, high-performance VPNs using WireGuard on MikroTik RouterOS. This practical, hands-on course is designed to take you from a foundational understanding of the state-of-the-art WireGuard protocol to deploying complex, secure enterprise network architectures.

WireGuard has revolutionized virtual private networks by being faster, simpler, and significantly leaner than older protocols like IPsec or OpenVPN. In this course, you will learn exactly how to leverage this incredible power within the MikroTik ecosystem using step-by-step, lab-focused tutorials.

Throughout this course, you will build and configure real-world scenarios from scratch, covering all major VPN deployment methods used by network administrators today:

* Road Warrior Implementation: Step-by-step guidance on setting up remote access connections. We will configure a Windows client from scratch to establish a secure VPN connection directly to the WireGuard VPN server.

* Site-to-Site VPN Tunnels: Establish rock-solid, permanent, encrypted connections between separate physical office locations.

* Hub-and-Spoke Topology: Centralize your network design by securely connecting multiple remote branch offices back to a core corporate hub.

* Split vs. Full Tunneling: Master traffic engineering by learning when to route only specific corporate subnets (Split) versus enforcing complete internet redirection through the tunnel (Full) for total privacy.

* Advanced Multi-Hop Routing: Deepen your technical routing skills by building advanced labs that chain traffic across multiple intermediary secure nodes.

Whether you are practicing on physical MikroTik hardware or simulating your environments using emulation platforms like EVE-NG or GNS3, this course provides the exact production-ready blueprints and firewall rules you need to design, manage, and troubleshoot WireGuard tunnels like a seasoned professional.

Who this course is for:

  • Network Engineers and Administrators looking to implement secure, modern VPN solutions using MikroTik hardware.
  • MikroTik Professionals who want to master WireGuard configuration, from simple tunnels to complex enterprise architectures.
  • IT Pros and Systems Administrators responsible for connecting remote branches, securing corporate data, or setting up remote access.
  • Network Students and Hobbyists who want hands-on experience building practical VPN labs in EVE-NG, GNS3, or physical hardware.
  • Anyone curious about WireGuard who wants to learn how to deploy it specifically within a MikroTik RouterOS environment.
