One awesome thing MikroTik has as well is an API module. Everything you can do in the CLI, Winbox, etc. can be done through the API. The built in scripting language also has a fetch tool that you can use to make http requests from the router to an external service.

Mikrotik gears are awesome, and Tom's review is also great. With Mikrotik it's necessary for the designer to know both the hardware and the software inside out. I also love Mikrotik transparency effort in revealing the hardware without even having to open up the box. One look at the posted block diagram and one can easily get a good understanding of what can be done with that device. After that it's just about keeping in mind the block diagram and then going about designing the network using standard concepts. RouterOS allows one to configure one's network to their design, no matter how complex. SwitchOS works great for a fully managed L2 switching. Only thing I'd state as a negative for SwitchOS would be the lack of winbox support, which I've learned to love over time. Another thing I've noticed is unlike RouterOS (which shows up with the full kitchen sink regardless of the hardware and its capabilities), SwitchOS version does vary across several models depending on the capabilities of the device. I think atm there are 3 different versions of SwitchOS for CRS3xx, CSSxxx and CSS610 (a new 2020 release I hope Tom will get to review soon).

To clarify, this device isn't really built for layer 3 traffic. This is a low power draw 10G switch that supports a ton of features that are hardware offloaded to the switch chip which allows for full wirespeed and no CPU use. The products are called CRS (Cloud Router Switch) because some of the CRS3 products actually have switch chips in them that support layer 3 offloading as well. In the beta version of RouterOS the bigger CRS3 switch (CRS317-1G-16S+RM) supports this and will be coming to more switches as they tap more into the switch chips. If you actually want to route they have a bunch of router products for this that are less switch chip focused and have onboard encryption hardware offloading for VPNs. The RouterOS software has a really powerful scripting system you can use to do some really cool things, it has a built in packet sniffer that you can stream directly into wireshark if you want, a torch tool that you can use to quickly see a basic view of live traffic going over network interfaces for troubleshooting.

This is a good overview and I would add that the lowest cost 10G switches from competitors are * Netgear XS505M ~320$ (4 RJ45 ports, 1 SFP+ port) * QNAP QSW-308S ~200$ (3 SFP+ ports) Both of which do not offer ANY managed features. The low cost MikroTik devices offer way more value and big part of that is the availability and functionality of RouterOS / SwitchOS.

I've found it very difficult. I'm reading their documentation, but it isn't clear when trying to create a basic access port if I should be setting that port to 'enabled', 'strict', or 'optional'. As he shows in this video, leaving it as 'optional' seems to work. But what are the others there for?

Honestly the routerOS UI is probably one of the things keeping me from picking up a Mikrotik switch but switchOS looks very straight-forward. I don't really need layer 3 routing on a 10gb switch anyway so i might pick one up now.

Hello Lawrence. Just listened to your video again and I am passing some more comments. 3 mins 07 secs. Web Configuration (WebFig) interface for MikroTik is not ugly in any sense. The interface is very, very similar to the Winbox interface, just a bit flatter because it is done from a web browser page and we are used to the Winbox GUI exists. But I like the WebFig and it is very easy to use. Trust me!

You are right, it's not ugly, it's beyond awful. I maintain several inherited Mikrotik boxes (with Winbox) and they are so damn behind the times, which is a shame because there is a really great concept down there. But let's focus on the silver lining, RouterOS 7 final is going to be releases this decade!

mikrotik has the easiest to read model numbers because they tell you everything you need to know about the product. like the CRS328-24P-4S+RM is from their Cloud Router Switch line, features 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports with POE Out, 4 SFP+ ports, and is Rack Mountable.

This is a bit funny and sad. I have a few of these 4 port units on desktops and some of their other bigger 10G CRS309-1G-8S+IN in the server rack. I have only ever used the RouterOS but the next time I have downtime I am moving over to SwitchOS. I should have tried that sooner, I could have saved myself so much time. I only looked at this because I am looking at the CSS326-24G-2S+RM 24 port and it only supports SwitchOS, I haven't used that cause I read I would loose all my settings and I spent so long setting them up. I can't beleive how easy the VLAN tagging is in the SwitchOS.

What I love about routerOS, enterprise features for and amazing price, you can really customize anything and scripting is fun. With great power comes great responsibility, you really have to understand the hardware you are running when you decide how to build your config. I think it is a great platform to learn on and play with but not easy to support and deploy because of the learning curve.

I don't see how that is different from any other hw that has lots of features you shouldn't use, lol. I had a Cisco RV series small business router a long time ago and using mac filtering brought that device to its knees.

mikrotik has an incredibly ugly and outdated interface, but it also has a ton of functionality in that ugly coat, much more and much more granular than what ubiquiti allows. i wish either mikrotik hired someone who has seen a gui that is not from the early 90s or ubiquiti actually figures out that there small switches/routers like the CRS305-1G-4S are a great idea and fiberchannel networks are a thing in some soho environments. i'd use ubiquiti if they had a small switch with 4-6 sfp+ ports that can serve as endpoint. not everything that has an sfp+ port automatically has to be rack sized and use a gazillion aircoolers screaming louder than a love sick cat at 3am. as it stand, ubiquiti looses out because they dont provide the appropriate hardware and that trumps a shiny gui every day in my book.

5mins 00 secs You said everything you use in RouterBOARD and SwitchOS? You even called it RouterBOARD-OS. No, that is not the official name. It is simply RouterOS (ROS). RouterBOARD is the hardware that comes from MikroTik. RouterOS can run on an ordinary PC, turning it into a solid router. RouterBOARD does not boot up, ROS does. Both SwOS and ROS run on that RouterBOARD that you have in this video. You need to spend more time in ROS and you will just love it, trust me.

12 mins 30 secs as well. MikroTik SwitchOS (SwOS) does not do Layer III. It is simply a Layer II OS. The Layer III capabilities of that device comes from using RouterOS itself. The operating systems are both not unusable at the same time. It is either one or the other (you are aware of that). The Layer III routing is very, very practical. I think you mixed it up by saying they throw a lot into SwOS because they actually don't. They however throw a lot into RouterOS, their flagship Operating System. Please, there is nothing about MikroTik that is just about the marketing people ticking unnecessary boxes. They are very diligent with their work and conservative in their approach. They are Latvian.
