MikroTik feature installation
To install the MikroTik feature, you need first the Proxy feature installed
- Ensure you have already the Proxy feature installed.
- Ensure you have at least an SSL certificate added in the Certificates Center (You did not need an official certificate, just create a Self-signed certificate for this purpose).
- Open the menu “Your System” and “Features”
- On the search field, type “MikroTik”
- Click on Install button under “MikroTik compliance” row
The MikroTik support is a “feature” inside Artica Proxy
- A new “MikroTik” menu is available under “Your Proxy” section.
- You have 2 status :
- The first one checks if the proxy is ready to receive requests, in our case we did not have HTTP port and HTTPs port available because we must define mandatory parameters.
- The second one checks if transparent rules are ready to handle traffic came from the MikroTik router
Did not care about listen ports, there are only used to establish communication between your MikoTiK firewall and Artica
- Choose the Self-Signed certificate in the SSL Certificate drop-down list
- Enable the Masquerade option if you are not aware of the full Tproxy method ( accounting for the HTTP/HTTPS flow)
- Click on Apply button
