Summary

Basic use cases and configuration examples for Cloud Router Switch features.

Warning: This article applies to CRS1xx and CRS2xx series switches and not to CRS3xx series switches.

Management IP Configuration

Untagged (VLAN 0) Management IP address has to be assigned to the master-port.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether3 master-port=ether2
set ether4 master-port=ether2
set ether5 master-port=ether2
/ip address
add address=192.168.88.1/24 interface=ether2 network=192.168.88.0

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether3 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether4 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether5 hw=yes
/ip address
add address=192.168.88.1/24 interface=bridge1 network=192.168.88.0
For tagged VLAN Management IP address add VLAN 99 interface and assign IP address to it. Since the master-port receives all
the traffic coming from switch-cpu port, VLAN interface has to be configured on the master-port, in this case "ether2" port. Now
from switch-chip point there also has to be VLAN 99 tagging on switch1-cpu port.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface vlan
add name=vlan99 vlan-id=99 interface=ether2
/ip address
add address=192.168.88.1/24 interface=vlan99 network=192.168.88.0

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface vlan
add name=vlan99 vlan-id=99 interface=bridge1
/ip address
add address=192.168.88.1/24 interface=vlan99 network=192.168.88.0

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,switch1-cpu vlan-id=99

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,switch1-cpu vlan-id=99 learn=yes

After valid VLAN99 configuration unknown/invalid VLAN forwarding can be disabled in global switch settings.

/interface ethernet switch


set drop-if-invalid-or-src-port-not-member-of-vlan-on-ports=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5

VLAN

Note: It is recommended to get Serial Console cable and test it before configuring VLANs because you may lose access to the CPU and/or
the port you are connected to.

Note: Some changes may take some time to take effect due to already learned MAC addreses. In such cases flushing Unicast Forwarding
Database can help: /interface ethernet switch unicast-fdb flush

Note: Multiple master-port configuration is designed as fast and simple port isolation solution, but it limits part of VLAN functionality
supported by CRS switch-chip. For advanced configurations use one master-port within CRS switch chip for all ports, configure VLANs and
isolate port groups with port isolation profile configuration.

Port Based VLAN

Example 1 (Trunk and Access ports)


Port Based VLAN 1

Choose a master port and enslave the ports you need to be in the same switch group.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2
set ether8 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Add initial VLAN assignments (PVID) to VLAN access ports.

/interface ethernet switch ingress-vlan-translation


add ports=ether6 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=200 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether7 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=300 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether8 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=400 sa-learning=yes

Add VLAN 200, VLAN 300 and VLAN 400 tagging on ether2 port to create it as VLAN trunk port. Egress-VLAN-Tag entry is
mandatory for every VLAN to make VLAN access ports work. If VLAN trunk port has not been chosen yet, Egress-VLAN-Tag
entry has to be added with tagged-ports="".

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=200
add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=300
add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=400

VLAN membership definitions in the VLAN table are required for proper isolation. Adding entries with VLAN id and ports makes
that VLAN traffic valid on those ports.

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=ether2,ether6 vlan-id=200 learn=yes
add ports=ether2,ether7 vlan-id=300 learn=yes
add ports=ether2,ether8 vlan-id=400 learn=yes

After valid VLAN configuration unknown/invalid VLAN forwarding can be disabled in global switch settings.

/interface ethernet switch


set drop-if-invalid-or-src-port-not-member-of-vlan-on-ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8

Example 2 (Trunk and Hybrid ports)


Port Based VLAN 2

Create a group of switched ports.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2
set ether8 master-port=ether2

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Add initial VLAN assignments (PVID) for untagged traffic on ether6, ether7, ether8 ports.

/interface ethernet switch ingress-vlan-translation


add ports=ether6 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=200 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether7 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=300 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether8 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=400 sa-learning=yes

Add VLAN 200, VLAN 300 and VLAN 400 tagging on ports according to diagram. The tagged-ports option allow multiple
values to support tagging on many ports.

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether2,ether7,ether8 vlan-id=200
add tagged-ports=ether2,ether6,ether8 vlan-id=300
add tagged-ports=ether2,ether6,ether7 vlan-id=400

VLAN membership definitions in the VLAN table are required for proper isolation. Adding entries with VLAN id and ports makes
that VLAN traffic valid on those ports.

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8 vlan-id=200 learn=yes
add ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8 vlan-id=300 learn=yes
add ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8 vlan-id=400 learn=yes

Unknown VLANs should be disabled after valid VLAN membership configuration.

/interface ethernet switch


set drop-if-invalid-or-src-port-not-member-of-vlan-on-ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8

Protocol Based VLAN


Protocol Based VLAN

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Set VLAN for IP and ARP protocols

/interface ethernet switch protocol-based-vlan


add port=ether2 protocol=arp set-customer-vid-for=all new-customer-vid=0
add port=ether6 protocol=arp set-customer-vid-for=all new-customer-vid=200

add port=ether2 protocol=0x809B set-customer-vid-for=all new-customer-vid=0
add port=ether8 protocol=0x809B set-customer-vid-for=all new-customer-vid=400

MAC Based VLAN


MAC Based VLAN

Create a group of switched ports.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether7 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes

Enable MAC based VLAN translation on access port.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether7 allow-fdb-based-vlan-translate=yes

Add MAC-to-VLAN mapping entries in MAC based VLAN table.

/interface ethernet switch mac-based-vlan


add src-mac=A4:12:6D:77:94:43 new-customer-vid=200
add src-mac=84:37:62:DF:04:20 new-customer-vid=300
add src-mac=E7:16:34:A1:CD:18 new-customer-vid=400

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=200
add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=300
add tagged-ports=ether2 vlan-id=400

InterVLAN Routing
InterVLAN Routing

InterVLAN routing configuration consists of two main parts – VLAN tagging in switch-chip and routing in RouterOS. This configuration
can be used in many applications by combining it with DHCP server, Hotspot, PPP and other features for each VLAN. Additionally this
example covers blocking of unwanted other VLAN traffic on ports.

Create a group of switched ports.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2
set ether8 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Set VLAN tagging on CPU port for all VLANs to make packets tagged before they are routed and add ingress VLAN translation
rules to ensure correct VLAN id assignment is done on access ports.

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=switch1-cpu vlan-id=200
add tagged-ports=switch1-cpu vlan-id=300
add tagged-ports=switch1-cpu vlan-id=400

/interface ethernet switch ingress-vlan-translation


add ports=ether6 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=200 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether7 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=300 sa-learning=yes
add ports=ether8 customer-vid=0 new-customer-vid=400 sa-learning=yes

For routing add VLAN interfaces on master-port because it connects with CPU port and add IP addresses to created VLAN
interfaces. In this example three 192.168.x.1 addresses are added to vlan200, vlan300 and vlan400 interfaces.

/interface vlan
add name=vlan200 interface=ether2 vlan-id=200
add name=vlan300 interface=ether2 vlan-id=300
add name=vlan400 interface=ether2 vlan-id=400

/ip address
add address=192.168.20.1/24 interface=vlan200 network=192.168.20.0
add address=192.168.30.1/24 interface=vlan300 network=192.168.30.0
add address=192.168.40.1/24 interface=vlan400 network=192.168.40.0

Unknown/Invalid VLAN filtering


VLAN membership is defined in the VLAN table. Adding entries with VLAN id and ports makes that VLAN traffic valid on those ports.
After valid VLAN configuration unknown/invalid VLAN forwarding can be disabled in global switch settings. This VLAN filtering
configuration example applies to InterVLAN Routing setup.

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=switch1-cpu,ether6 vlan-id=200 learn=yes
add ports=switch1-cpu,ether7 vlan-id=300 learn=yes
add ports=switch1-cpu,ether8 vlan-id=400 learn=yes

Option 1: disable invalid VLAN forwarding on specific ports:

/interface ethernet switch


set drop-if-invalid-or-src-port-not-member-of-vlan-on-ports=ether2,ether6,ether7,ether8

Option 2: disable invalid VLAN forwarding on all ports:

/interface ethernet switch


set forward-unknown-vlan=no

VLAN Tunneling (Q-in-Q)

This example covers typical VLAN tunneling use case where service provider devices add another VLAN tag for independent
forwarding in the mean time allowing customers to use their own VLANs.

Note: This example contains only Service VLAN tagging part.


It is recommended to additionally set Unknown/Invalid VLAN filtering configuration on ports.

Q-in-Q VLAN

CRS-1:The first switch on the edge of service provider network has to properly indentify traffic from customer VLAN id on port and
assign new service VLAN id with ingress VLAN translation rules.

VLAN trunk port configuration for service provider VLAN tags is in the same egress-vlan-tag table.

The main difference from basic Port Based VLAN configuration is that CRS switch-chip has to be set to do forwarding according to
service (outer) VLAN id instead of customer (inner) VLAN id.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether2 master-port=ether1
set ether9 master-port=ether1

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration


/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether1 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether9 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch ingress-vlan-translation


add customer-vid=200 new-service-vid=400 ports=ether1 sa-learning=yes
add customer-vid=300 new-service-vid=500 ports=ether2 sa-learning=yes

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether9 vlan-id=400
add tagged-ports=ether9 vlan-id=500

/interface ethernet switch


set bridge-type=service-vid-used-as-lookup-vid

CRS-2: The second switch in the service provider network require only switched ports using master-port and bridge-type configured
to do forwarding according to service (outer) VLAN id instead of customer (inner) VLAN id.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether10 master-port=ether9

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether9 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether10 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch


set bridge-type=service-vid-used-as-lookup-vid

CRS-3: The third switch has similar configuration to CRS-1:

Ports in a switch group using master-port;


Ingress VLAN translation rules to define new service VLAN assingments on ports;
tagged-ports for service provider VLAN trunks;
CRS switch-chip set to use service VLAN id in switching lookup.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether4 master-port=ether3
set ether10 master-port=ether3

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether3 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether4 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether10 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch ingress-vlan-translation


add customer-vid=200 new-service-vid=400 ports=ether3 sa-learning=yes
add customer-vid=300 new-service-vid=500 ports=ether4 sa-learning=yes

/interface ethernet switch egress-vlan-tag


add tagged-ports=ether10 vlan-id=400
add tagged-ports=ether10 vlan-id=500

/interface ethernet switch


set bridge-type=service-vid-used-as-lookup-vid

Mirroring
Mirroring

The Cloud Router Switches support three types of mirroring. Port based mirroring can be applied to any of switch-chip ports, VLAN
based mirroring works for all specified VLANs regardless switch-chip ports and MAC based mirroring copies traffic sent or received
from specific device reachable from the port configured in Unicast Forwarding Database.

Port Based Mirroring

The first configuration sets ether5 port as a mirror0 analyzer port for both ingress and egress mirroring, mirrored traffic will be sent to this
port. Port based ingress and egress mirroring is enabled from ether6 port.

/interface ethernet switch


set ingress-mirror0=ether5 egress-mirror0=ether5

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether6 ingress-mirror-to=mirror0 egress-mirror-to=mirror0

VLAN Based Mirroring

The second example requires ports to be switched in a group. Mirroring configuration sets ether5 port as a mirror0 analyzer port and sets
mirror0 port to be used when mirroring from VLAN occurs. VLAN table entry enables mirroring only for VLAN 300 traffic between
ether2 and ether7 ports.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether7 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch


set ingress-mirror0=ether5 vlan-uses=mirror0

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=ether2,ether7 vlan-id=300 learn=yes ingress-mirror=yes

MAC Based Mirroring

The third configuration also requires ports to be switched in a group. Mirroring configuration sets ether5 port as a mirror0 analyzer port
and sets mirror0 port to be used when mirroring from Unicast Forwarding database occurs. The entry from Unicast Forwarding database
enables mirroring for packets with source or destination MAC address E7:16:34:A1:CD:18 from ether8 port.
# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether8 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch


set ingress-mirror0=ether5 fdb-uses=mirror0

/interface ethernet switch unicast-fdb


add port=ether8 mirror=yes svl=yes mac-address=E7:16:34:A1:CD:18

Trunking

Trunking

The Trunking in the Cloud Router Switches provides static link aggregation groups with hardware automatic failover and load balancing.
IEEE802.3ad and IEEE802.1ax compatible Link Aggregation Control Protocol is not supported yet. Up to 8 Trunk groups are supported
with up to 8 Trunk member ports per Trunk group.

Configuration requires a group of switched ports and an entry in the Trunk table.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2
set ether8 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch trunk


add name=trunk1 member-ports=ether6,ether7,ether8

This example also shows proper bonding configuration in RouterOS on the other end.

/interface bonding
add name=bonding1 slaves=ether2,ether3,ether4 mode=balance-xor transmit-hash-policy=layer-2-and-3 \
link-monitoring=mii mii-interval=100ms

Note: You can find a working example for trunking and port based VLANs at CRS VLANs with Trunks page.

Limited MAC Access per Port


Disabling MAC learning and configuring static MAC addresses gives ability to control what exact devices can communicate to
CRS1xx/2xx switches and through them.
Configuration requires a group of switched ports, disabled MAC learning on those ports and static UFDB entries.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether6 learn-override=no
set ether7 learn-override=no

/interface ethernet switch unicast-fdb


add mac-address=4C:5E:0C:00:00:01 port=ether6 svl=yes
add mac-address=D4:CA:6D:00:00:02 port=ether7 svl=yes

CRS1xx/2xx switches also allow to learn one dynamic MAC per port to ensure only one end user device is connected no matter of its
MAC address.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether6 learn-limit=1
set ether7 learn-limit=1

Isolation

Port Level Isolation

Port Level Isolation

Port-level isolation is often used for Private VLAN, where:


One or multiple uplink ports are shared among all users for accessing gateway or router.
Port group Isolated Ports is for guest users. Communication is through the uplink ports only.
Port group Community 0 is for department A. Communication is allowed between the group members and through uplink ports.
Port group Community X is for department X. Communication is allowed between the group members and through uplink ports.

The Cloud Router Switches use port-level isolation profiles for Private VLAN implementation:

Uplink ports – Port-level isolation profile 0


Isolated ports – Port-level isolation profile 1
Community 0 ports - Port-level isolation profile 2
Community X (X <= 30) ports - Port-level isolation profile X

This example requires a group of switched ports. Assume that all ports used in this example are in one switch group configured
with master-port setting.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether6 master-port=ether2
set ether7 master-port=ether2
set ether8 master-port=ether2
set ether9 master-port=ether2
set ether10 master-port=ether2

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether9 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether10 hw=yes

The first part of port isolation configuration is setting the Uplink port – set port profile to 0 for ether2.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether2 isolation-leakage-profile-override=0

Then continue with setting isolation profile 1 to all isolated ports and adding the communication port for port isolation profile 1.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether5 isolation-leakage-profile-override=1
set ether6 isolation-leakage-profile-override=1

/interface ethernet switch port-isolation


add port-profile=1 ports=ether2 type=dst

Configuration to set Community 0 and Community 1 ports is similar.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether7 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2
set ether8 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2

/interface ethernet switch port-isolation


add port-profile=2 ports=ether2,ether7,ether8 type=dst

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether9 isolation-leakage-profile-override=3
set ether10 isolation-leakage-profile-override=3

/interface ethernet switch port-isolation


add port-profile=3 ports=ether2,ether9,ether10 type=dst

Protocol Level Isolation


Protocol Level Isolation

Protocol level isolation on CRS switches can be used to enchance network security. For example, restricting DHCP traffic between the
users and allowing it only to trusted DHCP server port can prevent security risks like DHCP spoofing attack. The following example
shows how to configure it on CRS.

Choose a master port and enslave the ports you need to be within the same switch group.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether2 master-port=ether1
set ether3 master-port=ether1
set ether4 master-port=ether1
set ether5 master-port=ether1

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether1 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether2 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether3 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether4 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether5 hw=yes

Set the same Community port profile for all DHCP client ports. Community port profile numbers are from 2 to 30.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether2 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2
set ether3 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2
set ether4 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2
set ether5 isolation-leakage-profile-override=2

And configure port isolation/leakage profile for selected Community (2) to allow DHCP traffic destined only to port where the
trusted DHCP server is located. registration-status and traffic-type properties have to be set empty in order to apply
restriction only for DHCP protocol.

/interface ethernet switch port-isolation


add port-profile=2 protocol-type=dhcpv4 type=dst forwarding-type=bridged ports=ether1 \
registration-status="" traffic-type=""

Quality of Service (QoS)


QoS configuration schemes

MAC based traffic scheduling and shaping: [MAC address in UFDB] -> [QoS Group] -> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper]
VLAN based traffic scheduling and shaping: [VLAN id in VLAN table] -> [QoS Group] -> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper]

Protocol based traffic scheduling and shaping: [Protocol in Protocol VLAN table] -> [QoS Group] -> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper]

PCP/DEI based traffic scheduling and shaping: [Switch port PCP/DEI mapping] -> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper]

DSCP based traffic scheduling and shaping: [QoS DSCP mapping] -> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper]

MAC based traffic scheduling using internal Priority

In Strict Priority scheduling mode, the highest priority queue is served first. The queue number represents the priority and the queue with
highest queue number has the highest priority. Traffic is transmitted from highest priority queue until the queue is empty, and then moves
to the next highest priority queue, and so on. If no congestion is present on the egress port, packet is transmitted as soon as it is received.
If congestion occurs on the port where high priority traffics keep coming, the lower priority queues starve.

On all CRS switches the scheme where MAC based egress traffic scheduling is done according to internal Priority would be following:
[MAC address] -> [QoS Group] -> [Priority] -> [Queue];
In this example host1 (E7:16:34:00:00:01) and host2 (E7:16:34:00:00:02) will have higher priority 1 and the rest of the hosts will have
lower priority 0 for transmited traffic on port ether7. Note that CRS has maximum 8 queues per port.

Create a group of ports for switching.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether7 master-port=ether6
set ether8 master-port=ether6

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Create QoS group for use in UFDB.

/interface ethernet switch qos-group


add name=group1 priority=1

Add UFDB entries to match specific MACs on ether7 and apply QoS group1

/interface ethernet switch unicast-fdb


add mac-address=E7:16:34:00:00:01 port=ether7 qos-group=group1 svl=yes
add mac-address=E7:16:34:00:00:02 port=ether7 qos-group=group1 svl=yes

Configure ether7 port queues to work according Strict Priority and QoS scheme only for destination address.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether7 per-queue-scheduling="strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-prior\
ity:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0" priority-to-queue=0:0,1:1 \
qos-scheme-precedence=da-based

MAC based traffic shaping using internal Priority

The scheme where MAC based traffic shaping is done according to internal Priority would be following: [MAC address] -> [QoS Group]
-> [Priority] -> [Queue] -> [Shaper];
In this example unlimited traffic will have priority 0 and limited traffic will have priority 1 with the bandwidth limit 10Mbit. Note that
CRS has maximum 8 queues per port.

Create a group of ports for switching.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether7 master-port=ether6
set ether8 master-port=ether6

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Create QoS group for use in UFDB.

/interface ethernet switch qos-group


add name=group1 priority=1

Add UFDB entry to match specific MAC on ether8 and apply QoS group1

/interface ethernet switch unicast-fdb


add mac-address=E7:16:34:A1:CD:18 port=ether8 qos-group=group1 svl=yes

Configure ether8 port queues to work according Strict Priority and QoS scheme only for destination address.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether8 per-queue-scheduling="strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-prior\
ity:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0" priority-to-queue=0:0,1:1 \
qos-scheme-precedence=da-based

Apply bandwidth limit for queue1 on ether8.

/interface ethernet switch shaper


add port=ether8 rate=10M target=queue1

If CRS switch supports Access Control List, this configuration would be simplier.

/interface ethernet switch acl policer


add name=policer1 yellow-burst=100k yellow-rate=10M

/interface ethernet switch acl


add mac-dst-address=E7:16:34:A1:CD:18 policer=policer1

VLAN based traffic scheduling + shaping using internal Priorities

Best practice is to assign lower internal QoS Priority for traffic limited by shaper to make it also less important in Strict Priority
scheduler. (higher priority should be more important and unlimited)

In this example:
VLAN10 -> QoS group0 = traffic limited by shaper
VLAN20 -> QoS group1 = normal traffic
VLAN30 -> QoS group2 = prioritized traffic

Create a group of ports for switching.

# pre-v6.41 master-port configuration

/interface ethernet
set ether7 master-port=ether6
set ether8 master-port=ether6

# post-v6.41 bridge hw-offload configuration

/interface bridge
add name=bridge1 igmp-snooping=no protocol-mode=none
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether6 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether7 hw=yes
add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether8 hw=yes

Create QoS groups for use in VLAN table.

/interface ethernet switch qos-group


add name=group0 priority=0
add name=group1 priority=1
add name=group2 priority=2

Add VLAN entries to apply QoS groups for certain VLANs.

/interface ethernet switch vlan


add ports=ether7,ether8 qos-group=group0 vlan-id=10
add ports=ether7,ether8 qos-group=group1 vlan-id=20
add ports=ether7,ether8 qos-group=group2 vlan-id=30

Configure ether7, ether8 port queues to work according Strict Priority and QoS scheme only for VLAN based QoS.

/interface ethernet switch port


set ether7 per-queue-scheduling="strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-prior\
ity:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0" priority-to-queue=0:0,1:1,2:2 \
qos-scheme-precedence=vlan-based
set ether8 per-queue-scheduling="strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-prior\
ity:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0,strict-priority:0" priority-to-queue=0:0,1:1,2:2 \
qos-scheme-precedence=vlan-based

Apply bandwidth limit for queue0 on ether7, ether8.

/interface ethernet switch shaper


add port=ether7 rate=10M target=queue0
add port=ether8 rate=10M target=queue0

Bandwidth Limiting
Both Ingress Port policer and Shaper provide bandwidth limiting features for CRS switches.

Ingress Port Policer sets RX limit on port:

/interface ethernet switch ingress-port-policer


add port=ether5 meter-unit=bit rate=10M

Shaper sets TX limit on port:

/interface ethernet switch shaper


add port=ether5 meter-unit=bit rate=10M

Traffic Storm Control


The same Ingress Port policer also can be used for the traffic storm control to prevent disruptions on Layer 2 ports caused by broadcast,
multicast or unicast traffic storms.

Broadcast storm control example on ether5 port with 500 packet limit per second:

/interface ethernet switch ingress-port-policer


add port=ether5 rate=500 meter-unit=packet packet-types=broadcast

Example with multiple packet types which includes ARP and ND protocols and unregistered multicast traffic. Unregistered
multicast is traffic which is not defined in Multicast Forwarding database.

/interface ethernet switch ingress-port-policer


add port=ether5 rate=5k meter-unit=packet packet-types=broadcast,arp-or-nd,unregistered-multicast

Spanning Tree Protocol


Starting from RouterOS v6.38rc2 Cloud Router Switches support Spanning Tree Protocols on ports configured for switching by hardware
switch chip. To enable this feature create RouterOS bridge interface and add the master-port to it.

Create a group of switched ports

/interface ethernet
set ether2 master-port=ether1
set ether3 master-port=ether1
set ether4 master-port=ether1

Create a bridge interface and add the master-port to it

/interface bridge add name=bridge1 protocol=rstp

/interface bridge port add bridge=bridge1 interface=ether1

Slave ports are dynamically added to the bridge only to show STP status. Forwarding through switched ports still are handled by
hardware switch chip.
