i still not sure about srcnat and dstnat, can you have a video about defference between each chain and action of ip firewall nat?

[@m4tt_314]

Wouldn't it be easier to set up separate subnet with its own DHCP pool and DNS config (for those without openDNS)?

[@profkwl775]

You have 2 DNS Servers under DHCP Server > Networks. The dns-nat only forwards to only 1 DNS server. Does it mean that the 2nd DNS is now useless as all dns traffic is redirected only to 1 DNS?
Is it possible to redirect to either of the DNS and not only to 1 DNS?

[@MAICT]

correct. you can create more dst-nat rules in this case

[@back2basics512]

On my Mikrotik router I don't have the DNS servers blocks to enter these addresses

[@profkwl775]

And what if I have DNS FastTrack on Firewall? Does the dns-nat gets ignored by FastTrack?

[@MAICT]

based on MikroTik Wiki, IPv4 FastTrack handler supports NAT (SNAT, DNAT or both).

[@Bus2000]

Works great thanks 👍 Only OpenDNS showing different IP addresses as you show in the video. Do you need to update the DNS addresses regularly?

What if ISP enforces you to use its DNS?

[@zacohell]

doesn't work with hotspot users, after applying the rules the hotspot login page doesn't appear?

[@P0w3rgamer]

this happened to me when i tried to set up firewall rules for some vlans, when i was enabling "use ip firewall" at bridge settings. What i did was to assign hotspot not on bridge anymore but on an ethernet interface

[@nikolashuminosky6987]

[@MAICT]

all
