Review on MikroTik Routerboard RB2011 UiAS-2HnD-IN with SFP Port and 10 Ethernet Ports by Ha Joon Bong ᠌

The setup is a little more complicated than SOHO routers. You will have to learn how the dstnat, srcnat, input, output, forward chains work, what is mangle. For those who are familiar with iptables, as with their own, there will be no problems. Those who are not familiar, after some time, will suddenly master them by a living example. A good analogy is to compare a children's construction set, where parts are already fitted and holes drilled (SOHO), with work on living materials, where all the parts will have to be made independently, but the possibilities are wider. Only 5 gigabit ports. Working with 8022022n Wi-Fi is fraught with oddities that did not exist on 8022022g SOHO routers. We have to figure out why when the Galaxy SII falls asleep, then you have to turn off Wi-Fi and turn it on again, otherwise it won’t download. They say that this is allegedly due to the phone clock lagging behind the router clock during encryption. WiFi speed became dependent on the distance between the router and the mobile device, which was not so noticeable on the DIR-320 with its 8022022g. This router only has the 2.4GHz band, but for 10 extra bucks, that's not a big deal. Maybe later I'll buy a separate Ubiquiti access point. The built-in clock does not have a backup power supply. The time is ated via SNTP. Does not want to work via USB with APC Back UPS CS500, although it "sees" it. Micro USB, although the board has a footprint for a full-sized one. The power supply is not built-in (the rack version can be converted, but this one is not). Very bright blue power LED. The supout. Rif file generated by the support router contains sensitive data such as VPN passwords.
