Introdution of Mikrotik

Hallo guys..

Today I want to share a little bit about Introdution of Mikrotik.

Do you know Mikrotik?



MikroTik is a company engaged in the production of hardware (hardware) and software (Software) associated with computer network system headquartered in Latvia, adjacent to Russia. MikroTik was founded in 1995 to develop a wireless router and ISP (Internet Service Provider) system. 

MikroTik Router OS is an operating system and software that can be used to make computers become reliable network routers, including features made for ip networks and wireless networks, suitable for use by ISPs and hotspot providers. For the installation of MikroTik is not required additional software or other additional components. MikroTik is designed to be easy to use and very well used for the purposes of computer network administration such as designing and building a small to complex computer network system though.



Well, if you want to Configuration the MikroTik, you must know about this :

1. IP Address
IP Address is a numerical identity that is labeled to a device such as a computer, router or printer contained in a computer network that uses internet protocol as a means of communication.

2. Gateway
Gateway is a network device used to connect two networks. Gateway is usually used as a link between local network (LAN) with public network (internet). In addition, gateway also acts as a regulator where the packages are allowed to pass and which ones are not. Gateway can be a special tool such as a router / modem or can be a computer.

3. DNS
DNS or Domain Name System is a system that stores all the data information from domain or hostname in a network. Without DNS, domain can not translate domain to be IP address.

Type of DNS :
  • A record, which maps the hostname to a 32-bit IP address (IPv4).
  • AAAA record, which maps the hostname to a 128-bit IP address (IPv6).
  • MX Record, this maps the domain to the mail exchange server.
  • CNAME Record, this one creates the name of a domain.
  • NS Record, maps the domain to a list of DNS Servers.

4. NAT
NAT (Network Address Translation) is a process of mapping an IP address in which a computer network device will assign a public IP address to a local network device so that many private IP can access the public IP. Serves as a public IP address translation to private IP address or vice versa so that with this NAT every computer on LAN network can access internet easily.

NAT have two types :
  • Dnat (Destination Network Address Translation),  serves to forward packets from a public IP through a firewall to a host within the network. Dnat only works on the NAT table and in the NAT table contains 3 parts called CHAIN, the three CHAIN include pre-routing, post routing and output.
  • SNAT (Source Network Address Translation),  is a NAT that is assigned to change the source address of a data packet. SNAT only applies to post routing.

5. DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is one of the protocols on a computer network that can provide or lend an IP address to a host that is in one network automatically. DHCP server functions to lend IP address to existing host. While the host who gets an IP address loan from the DHCP server is usually called DHCP Client. So, where there is a server there must be a client as well.


Ok, maybe just it that I can share. If you know more about it. Please coment..
