Full MikroTik MTCRE - ECMP (Quick and Easy Load balancing)

Hello and welcome! In this video we will be discussing what ECMP is, some of its downsides as well as how to configure ECMP on a device. This mechanism has various uses from easy load-balancing for home users to network availability for ISP networks.

Mikrotik have some cool cheap hardware, yet not much *quality* tutorials on how to make stuff happen, you are on the right path.

I like the way you draw the netwokring diagrams!!.
Diagrams aside, if you are given the task to load balance over multiple wan links dont waste your time and go with PCC, since it doesnt brake SSL and it is not so hard to setup

Without Mangle Prerouting ISP1 and ISP2?

[saintset]

There is not new gateway option on OS 7.1.3 for ECMP

[KenMarfilla]

Is there a way to set this up in ROS7?

[shokowillard]

Please may you make a video of routing vrf and ecmp working together

The Network Berg - Bringing enterprise level equipement to simple user level. I can already see it, everyone with fast fiber connections start building their own ISP 🤣🤣

u have to mark connection for wan1 & wan 2 then have to do mark routing, and add 2 more static route with mark routing tag, otherwise u can't access to that mikrotik from the wan1 or wan2 in real case scenario

[itzizag]

which load balancing is best for an organization.
1- PCC
2- NTH
3- ECMP
is any other load balancing is available in this.
and
thank you so much again.

How to use load balancing for two IP sec tunnels using two different WAN interfaces ?

[TheNetworkBerg]

(Note: ECMP works in a round robin way, a gateway is chosen randomly PER CONNECTION and ECMP can function is different routing tables)

just now saw this video. in ROS 7.x it looks different. I can not make second route in the same route rule. Instead I have to make second route entry. Any other differences I should take care of?

[ivanvidal]

Hi, ECMP can be used as a failover config?

[raajseeker]

What is the main differences between masquerade and passthrough?
In both rule i can break up the internet.

[mmesoto]

it would be interesting to explore ecmp for ingress traffic and load-balance web server via multiple routes or links or isp's.

[SavannahTL]

If the internet is down on wan 1 but can reach wan 1 gateway, wouldn’t it be best to setup netwatch and have it ping an external IP address like google dns verify the internet can reach out beyond the gateway in?

[David-bqqh]

Just got a mikrotik for my dual WAN both isps are DHCP how would I apply this for dual DHCP connection?

[vesalgasht]

what if both connection is PPPOE connation? NO IP to Route here

Hey bud I'm cyril from india I'm a Class C ISP I'm newly built. And my dought is I have a 2 type of bandwith. One is the airtel and one is the tata
