If you are looking for an easy to read book on MikroTik RouterOS, this book is for you. RouterOS by Example covers all of the subjects presented in the MikroTik Certified Network Associate certification course, each explained through real life examples. This second edition is an update, with new examples created from Version 6 of RouterOS, and new material including a chapter on the switching functions of the CRS, Cloud Router Switches. From the author, Steve Discher "years ago when I downloaded my first copy of the RouterOS software, it didn’t take long to realize the power I had at my fingertips and quickly learn to appreciate the numerous features this routing system performs to “wow” my clients. Unfortunately, the gap between the documentation and actually solving problems with this powerful tool was wide, and I saw the need for a complete, example oriented, textbook type guide. I have always been a “hands on” type of guy. I learn by doing and I teach through examples and have attempted to do that in this book. If you want answers and are ready to enhance your “solutions tool box”, then you have picked a winner with MikroTik and RouterOS.
This book is a second edition, but not just an update. It became necessary because a few things have changed in RouterOS since the first edition and so the book has been edited to include those changes. In addition, more tips and tricks are shared in this second edition. Features:- Updated for RouterOS Version 6
