MTCNA Exam Dumps : MikroTikCertified Network Associate Exam

Setting "forwarding=no" on a wireless interface prevents communication between connected clients on that interface and between that interface and other interfaces in the same bridge. This means:

Stations connected to wlan1 cannot talk to each other

Stations on wlan1 cannot talk to stations on wlan2 (even if bridged)

Stations on wlan2 can talk to each other normally

Evaluation:

A.✅Correct – forwarding=no does not affect wlan2

B.❌Incorrect – forwarding=no blocks this

C.✅Correct – clients on wlan1 cannot talk to each other either

D.❌Bridge filters can be used but this scenario is about forwarding settings

E.❌Blocked by forwarding=no

MTCNA Wireless Module – Wireless Forwarding Behavior:

“Forwarding=no disables client-to-client communication on the interface and across bridges.”

René Meneses Study Guide – Wireless Access Config:

“Use forwarding=no to isolate clients on the same AP. Affects bridging too.”

Terry Combs Notes – Wireless Isolation:

“Setting forwarding=no isolates all clients on that wireless card.”

Answer: A, CQUESTION NO: 81 [Wireless]

Consider a wireless access point with mode=ap-bridge. What is the maximum number of concurrent clients that can connect to it?

A. 2007

B. 2012

C. 2048

D. 1024

Answer: C

In MikroTik RouterOS, the theoretical maximum number of clients that can associate with an AP in ap-bridge mode is 2048. However, practical limits depend on hardware performance and network stability, and most real-world setups use far fewer clients.

Let’s review:

A. 2007 →❌Close, but not the actual hard limit

B. 2012 →❌Incorrect

C.✅2048 → Correct per MikroTik’s AP mode specification

D. 1024 →❌Lower than the actual maximum

MTCNA Wireless Module – AP Behavior:

“In ap-bridge mode, the maximum theoretical client limit is 2048. Actual stable operation may be lower.”

René Meneses Guide – Wireless Scaling:

“2048 is the upper limit for client associations on a MikroTik AP in bridge mode.”

Terry Combs Notes – Client Capacity:

“2048 clients = maximum. Performance may degrade before that in high-traffic environments.”

The “Max Limit” value in MikroTik Simple Queues defines the maximum allowed bandwidth. In this case:

Target Address: 192.168.1.10

Target Upload = 1M → The host can upload at a maximum of 1 Mbps

Target Download = unlimited → No restriction on download

This does not “guarantee” bandwidth — it enforces a ceiling. A guaranteed rate would require "Limit-at" to be set.

Evaluation:

A.❌This queue limits, it does not guarantee a minimum bandwidth.

B.❌Download is set to unlimited — no limitation.

C.✅Upload is limited to 1 Mbps — correct.

D.❌Download rate is unlimited — no guarantee or limit.

MTCNA Course Manual – Simple Queue Explanation:

“Max-limit sets the maximum throughput for upload/download. It’s a ceiling, not a guarantee.”

René Meneses Guide – Simple Queues Explained:

“In this case, upload is capped at 1M. No burst or download limit is applied.”

Terry Combs Notes – Queue Properties:

“Always distinguish between 'limit-at' (minimum guarantee) and 'max-limit' (maximum cap).”

/27 subnet = 255.255.255.224 → block size of 32

To determine the subnet range:

Start by finding block base:15.242.55.62 falls in the 15.242.55.32/27 subnetRange: 15.242.55.32 – 15.242.55.63Network Address = 15.242.55.32Broadcast Address = 15.242.55.63Usable Host Range = 15.242.55.33 to 15.242.55.62

Evaluation:

A. 15.242.55.33 – 15.242.55.62 →✅Valid host range

B. 15.242.55.32 – 15.242.55.63 →❌Includes network and broadcast addresses

C. 15.242.55.31 – 15.242.55.62 →❌15.242.55.31 is outside this subnet

D. 15.242.55.33 – 15.242.55.63 →❌Includes broadcast address

MTCNA Course Slides – Subnetting:

“In a /27 subnet (block size 32), the first address is the network, last is broadcast. Only the IPs in between are valid host addresses.”

René Meneses Guide – Subnetting Examples:

“A /27 includes 32 addresses. For subnet 192.168.1.32/27, usable IPs are 192.168.1.33–62.”

Terry Combs Notes – Addressing Exercises:

“Subtract 2 from total IPs in subnet for host count. Don't use .0 (network) or .255 (broadcast) equivalents.”
