Meet your instructor Abdul Rahman as he outlines the MTCNA course and guides you toward mastering MikroTik training and the Mycotic Certified Network Associate Emdicine certification.
Upgrade router os packages by checking for updates, downloading, and rebooting to 6.49.19, then upgrade router firmware via router board upgrade to 6.49.19 and reboot to verify.
Learn to log in a MikroTik router via ssh or telnet using putty, with the default admin credentials, and set a new password to 123.
Explore MikroTik RouterOS and RouterBOARD hardware, learning routing, firewall, bandwidth management, wireless access points, backhaul links, hotspots, and vpn servers.
Download winbox and connect to the router via the mac address, log in as admin with no password, then access the web interface at the default ip to configure wifi.
Learn how to create and configure a bridge by combining ether ports (ether2, ether3, ether4) into a single bridge interface and assign IP addresses so devices share the same network.
Configure the router with the ISP’s IP, subnet mask 24, and default gateway, then assign the LAN address like 192.168.1.1/24 and enable a masquerade NAT rule.
Configure arp on a MikroTik router, enable arp on interfaces, and manually bind an IP to a MAC address via the arp table to restore connectivity.
Learn how to set the router identity, manage OS login and user privileges, and configure router services such as IP service and Winbox port.
Learn to back up and restore MikroTik router configurations by creating backup files, exporting rc files, and uploading or dragging and dropping, then reset the router to default.
Configure a dhcp server to automatically assign ip addresses across the network by setting the dhcp setup on the lan interface, defining the network block and gateway.
Learn routing fundamentals, including the overview and differences between dynamic and static routing, and how to configure static routes manually with gateways and point-to-point and lan networks.
Configure MikroTik wireless by enabling wireless, using bridge mode, and creating a MTC WPA PSK security profile; troubleshoot by bridging the LAN and resolving DHCP issues.
Learn how to configure MikroTik connection tracking and states within the firewall, troubleshoot connectivity by toggling tracking settings, and restore ping and internet access after applying auto mode.
Configure a MikroTik firewall filter rule with the input chain to drop icmp from the LAN. This blocks ping while you can still browse the internet.
Learn to configure NAT by setting net action to source net and action to masquerade under IP > firewall, enabling internet on the router.
Learn how to use simple queue in MikroTik to control bandwidth by capping an IP at 1 Mbps and 5 Mbps on Ethernet, then test removal to restore full speed.
Configure a pcq (per connection key) to allocate two Mbps upload and two Mbps download for users using MikroTik. The lecture covers setting the LAN IP and verifying bandwidth.
Configure a pppoe server and client on a MikroTik router by creating a pool and profile, adding a user, and connecting a client to obtain an ip address.
Configure a pptp client and server on a MikroTik router by enabling pptp, creating an ip pool and secret, and establishing the vpn with optional bandwidth limits.
Configure email on a MikroTik router by accessing the tools, setting up your mail server with TLS, and entering the from address, user, and password to send a test mail.
Learn how to use ping to verify destination reachability and how traceroute traces hops from source to destination in MikroTik. Use profiler to monitor CPU usage.
Learn to use Netwatch on a MikroTik router to monitor host status, observe uplink changes, view logs, and configure up or down notifications to mobile or email.
Use the torch tool to identify which user on the LAN is consuming bandwidth, view source, destination, and IP details, and inspect the bandwidth graph in the browser.
Finish the MikroTik training course by emailing the support email to share feedback and receive a reply.
Discover a website where you can take a practice test to reinforce your MikroTik MTCNA training as this conclusion guides you to the resource.
