Mikrotik Features and Benefits
Flexible Setup
We use MikroTik devices in different roles such as internet edge, branch router and wireless network.
Security
We configure firewall rules, NAT and VLAN separation and restrict management access.
Traffic Management
With traffic prioritization and bandwidth limits we give priority to critical applications.
RouterOS Management
We back up the RouterOS configuration and apply updates in a planned maintenance window.
MikroTik products we use
RouterOS
The operating system of MikroTik devices. It gives firewall, routing, VPN and traffic management functions in one system.
Ethernet routers and RouterBOARD

Switches for offices and server rooms. Some models run SwOS instead of RouterOS.
Wireless systems
Indoor and outdoor access points. CAPsMAN applies the wireless settings of many MikroTik access points from one central point.
LTE/5G products
Devices for internet access and a backup line over the mobile network.
VPN and routing
RouterOS supports WireGuard and IPsec VPN and the OSPF and BGP routing protocols.
WinBox
A management tool that administers RouterOS with a graphical interface.

Frequently asked questions
Which Businesses Are MikroTik Products Suitable For?
The MikroTik range has models of different capacity, from small office routers to server room switches. We choose the model by number of connections, traffic volume and role.
How Can I Manage My Network with MikroTik RouterOS?
RouterOS is managed with WinBox, the web interface and the command line. We do the configuration, log changes and back up the configuration on a regular basis.
How Is the Scalability of MikroTik Products Achieved?
We add new branches, access points or switches with existing configuration templates. We take growth into account when choosing devices.
How Do MikroTik Solutions Ensure Network Security?
RouterOS provides firewall, VPN and user authentication functions. We write rules by the least access principle and restrict management access to authorized addresses.
Do MikroTik Devices Offer High-Performance Network Traffic Management?
A device’s throughput depends on the model and the enabled functions. We choose the model by comparing the vendor’s test results with your traffic measurements.
Can MikroTik connect branches with a VPN?
Yes. RouterOS supports the WireGuard and IPsec VPN protocols. We select the protocol by the branch count and the existing devices, and we set up site-to-site and remote access VPN. For many branches, we plan routing with OSPF or BGP.
Is a MikroTik wireless network managed centrally?
Yes. CAPsMAN applies the wireless settings of many MikroTik access points from one central point. It also manages client authentication. In offices with many access points, we set up the CAPsMAN structure.
