Bridging Networks with SXT
Two RouterBOARD SXT devices can be used to establish transparent wireless point-to-point network link. There a multiple options how to do that. This guide shows the most simple and easiest way how to do that by using bridge mode on one side and station-bridge wireless mode on the other side. RouterBOARD SXT devices has only Level 3 RouterOS license, but even with that it is possible to make wireless connection between two SXT devices.
Contents
1. Make connection to the RouterBOARD SXT 2. Configure the first SXT device to the wireless bridge mode 3. Configure the second SXT device to the wireless station-bridge mode 4. Finetuning the RouterOS configuration to get the max speed Make connection to the RouterBOARD SXT
There are multiple ways how to connect to the RouterBOARD (winbox, webfig, telnet, ssh, ...), but this guide will how to configure the device using Winbox utility. Winbox utility can be downloaded from the MikroTik webpage Winbox)) or from the RouterBOARDs webpage. The SXT device by default has IP address 192.168.88.1 configure Winbox default IP address on the ethernet interface. In order to connect to the SXT device make sure your computers IP ad range is form the same network address space. Connect the ethernet cable from the PC to the SXT device and powe Open the Winbox utility and in the "Connect To" field write the IP address of the SXT device. If it can't connect cl "..." button to search for a RouterOS based devices. In that discovery windows select the SXT device IP or MAC w found and click Connect.

Connect to the second SXT device the same way as it is described in first step. Configuration of the second SXT de similar to the first one.
Open Wireless menu and select the wireless interface. Change the Mode setting to "station-bridge". Make sure that the same country as the first SXT device. In order to change the country setting you need to click on the "Advanced button and then you will see the country field. [image with station-bridge and county]

The basic configuration for the Station-bridge device is done.
Finetuning the RouterOS configuration to get the max speed
After both devices are configured you should be able to see from the station-bridge device that the wireless connec established. It also means that the transparent setup should be working fine and you should be able to communicate both networks that are connected to the SXT ethernet sides. http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Bridging_Networks_with_SXT

Building to Building PTP links using MikroTik Wireless Produc Sheet Music
We are often asked how to make building to building or „point to point‟ wireless links. As the MikroTik does not change between models this „How To‟ can apply to any MikroTik Wireless based device. For th To I will be using a pair of the new MikroTikYou're SXT AC‟s, to create a L2 transparent wireless bridge in a sim Reading a Preview point to point mode (PtP). This How To can also apply to point to multi point scenarios (PtMP). One SX set up in „Bridge‟ mode (effectively an AP) Unlock and the „Station Bridge‟ (i.e. the „client‟), to ensure be fullother accessas with a free trial. performance the link will be created and secured using the Mikrotik NV2 TDMA based protocol.

Step 1 – The first port of call for configuring any Mikrotik device is to manually change your syste address in order to communicate with the Mikrotik equipment effectively, in this How To I using 192.168.88.2 as my system IP initially and swapping back to DHCP once the link is establis (note that Mikrotik devices are configured on 192.168.88.1 for Ether 1 from the manufacturer default).

Step 3 – Connect to the first wireless device using its default IP of 192.168.88.1 default username will b with no password set. Once connected a new window will appear with many options, see image below fo reference. Step 4 – Now that we are logged into the Mikrotik we can begin configuring it for use in our PTP link, the first one we are going to configure is the access point which might be plugged directly into a switch in the main office, or a broadband router at home. To enable us to transparently bridge Layer 2 traffic across the link, we are going to bridge the ethernet and the wireless interfaces together. Doing this will also allow a DHCP server to assign the Mikrotik a unique Network IP which will allow for easy configuration in the future on your internal network, which may not be on the same 192.168.88.0/24 network. To create a bridge simply select bridge from the left menu, a new window will appear within Winbox. Select the + symbol to create a new bridge and give it a meaning full name e.g. “Wireless bridge”.

An OmniTik for example will have more ethe interfaces.

Step 7 – Now its time to configure the Wireless interface onaour Mikrotik You're Reading Preview to broadcast a secure wireless for our station side to connect to. This can be done by selecting Wireless from the left hand menu followe double clicking „wlan1-gateway‟ from the interface (normally onlytrial. 1 Wlan interface is listed but it‟s act Unlock fulllist access with a free name may change depending on the type of MikroTik RouterBoard). This will bring up a new window wit options, select the wireless tab within the new window and then click on „Advanced mode‟. More options Download Trial mode which will automatically br appear but don‟t panic! First thing we should configureWith is theFree frequency Mikrotik into Compliance with local regulatory guidelines (set by Ofcom in the UK), ensure that Frequenc is set to „regulatory-domain‟ and the county is set to the country that the Mikrotik will be operating in. In t I have selected United Kingdom. Once this is done „simple mode‟ can be re -selected or you can continu in Advanced mode.
Step 8 – Still in the wireless tab under the wireless interface configuration window change the Mode to „ bridge‟ and the SSID to something appropriate, I used „Mikrotik PTP‟. If the SXT only has a Level 3 licen the mode „ap bridge‟ is not available, so select „bridge‟ instead. For a point to point system, there is no difference between „ap bridge‟ and „bridge‟ wireless modes. For point to multi-point, you will need a Mik RouterBoard wireless product with a Level 4 license. Wireless protocol should now be changed to „nv2‟, this simple change we have added a substantial layer of reliability to the wireless signal we are producing compared to using 802.11 WiFi mode. No conventional wireless client such as laptop or phone can up todevices vote on this communicate on the NV2 protocol as they don‟t understand it only Sign Mikrotik cantitle use NV2. (Note that there are also no device drivers available for Windows, Linux or Mac OSX asNot NV2 mode is a pro Useful the useful TDMA based system).
