I have Mikrotik router with Wifi connected to:

  • WAN/internet on port ether1.
  • Other ports are for LAN 10.0.1.*.
  • Only port ether8 is connected to another simple POE switch. Four IP cameras with static IP are connected. This is LAN2 192.168.50.*. Port is not included in bridge or switch.

From main LAN I can access internet and other PC on same LAN, but can't access IP cameras on LAN2.

So, what is wrong/missing in my Mikrotik configuration:

/ip address
add address=10.0.1.1/24 comment="default configuration" interface=    ether2-master-local network=10.0.1.0
add address=10.0.0.18/30 interface=ether1-gateway network=10.0.0.16
add address=192.168.50.253/24 interface=ether8-master-local-SUBNET network=
192.168.50.0

/ip route
add distance=2 gateway=10.0.0.17

No ping or trace route can reach LAN2 from main LAN. If I connect to POE switch with my laptop and configure static IP in range 192.168.50.* than I can access all cameras OK.

If try ping IP camera directly from Mikrotik via ether8 than I get random mix of timeouts and success which is really strange.

Any help is appreciated.

did you set 192.168.50.253 as gateway in your IP cameras ? So they know how to reply to 10.0.1.0/24 when they receive a ping.

As for the random success ping problem, this is weird indeed, maybe an IP conflict (did you try with only 1 camera plugged?)

  • I had set gateway on one of cameras only. But routing started to work only when I set gateway on all of them. I would expect that the camera with gateway should work before, but didn't. I was too much focused on configuring Mikrotik, that I forgot to check cameras. Thanks. – Honza Jan 13 '16 at 07:41
