Summary of "MAS-ROS, Cap 2.1 - Configuración por default"
Overview of MikroTik Default Configurations
The video provides an overview of the default configurations on MikroTik devices, focusing on initial setup and access methods.
Default Configuration Overview
MikroTik devices come with default settings that include:
- Port-level configurations
- DHCP client/server setup
- Basic firewall rules
- Network access control (NAC)
- Addressing with a default IP address (typically
192.168.88.1)
Device Variations
Different MikroTik models may have variations in their default configurations. Detailed documentation on these differences is available on the official MikroTik wiki at mikrotik.com.
Initial Connection and Configuration Prompt
When first connecting to a MikroTik device via WinBox (a proprietary configuration tool):
- A prompt appears asking whether to continue with the default configuration or reset it.
- The device will not allow proceeding if there is a conflict until the user confirms or resets the configuration.
Port Usage and Network Setup
- Ports 0, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are grouped as a switch with a default network address of
192.168.88.0/24. - These ports act as a DHCP server by default.
- Port 1 is typically blocked by firewall rules.
- Initial Ethernet connections should be made via port 2 or higher.
Single-Port Devices and Wireless Access
Some MikroTik devices, such as the dual or M series, have only one Ethernet port. These devices can be accessed wirelessly:
- Connect to the default SSID named “MikroTik”.
- Use the IP address
192.168.88.1in a web browser. - The default username is “admin” with no password required initially.
Note: The username was noted as “sal mí” in the video, likely due to an auto-caption error.
Factory Reset Procedure
To reset a device to factory defaults:
- Press and hold the reset button during startup.
- Continue holding until the LEDs flash.
- This is useful if the password is forgotten or access issues occur.
Access Methods
Besides WinBox and the web interface, MikroTik devices can be accessed remotely via:
- SSH
- Telnet
- Serial port
These methods provide command-line interface access rather than a graphical interface.
