Obviously, the configuration details are different with Cisco, but I have done similar configurations on Cisco, ImageStream and vanilla Linux routers. This method is not specific to Mikrotik.

That's slow. Not sure how rotuer OS handles RSTP. That would be faster, but still around a few seconds. STP and RSTP put redundant links into a blocking state, so load balancing would not work. Not sure how granular you can tweak OSPF in routerOS, but that CAN be tweaked down to 50ms or sub 50 ms convergence times on some platforms (Cisco, Alcatal-Lucent) for truly excellent performance. With 50ms convergence, you don't even hear a bump in the audio on VOIP. Very nice!! I like this example though. Good idea. STP would converge in 45s. That’s slow. Not sure how rotuer OS handles RSTP.

I've simply never tried. If you try it and get it working, feel free to post the code, a link to your blog or simply email it to me and I'll write it up. If there is an "outcry" for this solution, I'll be happy to work it out and get it posted. I would imagine it could be done with stp. I’ve simply never tried.

Couldn't the same thing be done using stp? This is interesting. Couldn’t the same thing be done using stp?
