Mikrotik configure port as trunk

ChrisD. · 10 Jul 2019 at 18:01

I mainly have Unifi Switches and I have an untagged VLAN, VLAN2 and VLAN 3. I've just put in a Mikrotik 10Gbps switch and I've connected it up, but seemingly no matter what I do in SwitchOS it only passes the untagged traffic. Has anyone done similar and able to point me in the right direction?

I solved it, it was a layer 8 issue. I forgot to change the port profile of the Unifi Switch port to trunk, so nothing on the Mikrotik end.

I've never heard of a layer 8 issue but I'll be adoping that myself from now on.

I'm an ex (well, still kind of current) network engineer, it was a common saying between the team.
