<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Ross,<br>
The first thing that crossed my mind is the inevitable situation when packets will arrive out of order because the designed solution uses bandwidth aggregation / load balancing. For TCP it's ok, but for UDP it'll be a nightmare and the users will literally
hear it.<br>
Mikrotik is a nifty platform, and as with any other device, one has to know how to cook it.<br>

Subject: [AusNOG] Mikrotik routers and "VLAN trunking over WAN"<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking for someone with Mikrotik experience to confirm which devices (any? all?) might achieve the desired outcome here.<br>
<br>
Basically there are a number of sites of varying sizes, but for the purposes of argument, lets say 20 sites.<br>
<br>
Most sites are proposed to have at least two diverse paths. These could be ADSL, Microwave, 3G/4G/LTE etc. The point is, different providers, different paths.<br>
<br>
Each site has it's (n) paths connected to interfaces on a Mikrotik router which can aggregate bandwidth across (n) links (and reduce latency<br>
somewhat) while providing an ability to withstand (n-1) link failures.<br>
<br>
The user further intends making extensive use of VLANs to "isolate"<br>
services (eg, phones, computers, security devices, "public" devices etc).<br>
Thus it would be entirely likely that there could be 40 switches at 20 sites, each with
<a href="http://10.10.8.0/22" target="_blank">10.10.8.0/22</a> for "phones" all on VLAN8.<br>
<br>
Not withstanding how YOU might do it, is there an intrinsic problem with the design (or Mikrotik as the each sites 'edge device') as it stands?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
RossW<br>
