RouterOS By Example 2nd Edition
by Stephen Discher

RouterOS is an operating system that can turn a standard PC or X86 embedded board into a dedicated router, a bandwidth shaper, a transparent packet filter, or a wireless enabled device. It is also the operating system of the RouterBOARD, a hardware platform manufactured by MikroTik. The product can range from a very small home router to a carrier class access concentrator. If you need features and power on a budget, then read on. If you are new to MikroTik or RouterOS, this is going to astound you. In this Second Edition, the author has updated the book for RouterOS Version 6, expanded the examples, and added an important new chapter on MikroTik's Cloud Router Switches.

This book was designed to be the textbook for the MTCNA or MikroTik Certified Network Associate training courses conducted by MikroTik Certified Trainers such as the author and our own Trainer, Ron Touw.
