 ===== Configuration methods ===== ===== Configuration methods =====
-MikroTik devices can be configured in multiple ways: the webinterface, winbox (native app), SSH or serial console. In this guide the webinterface is used, configuration via winbox is very similar. The advantage of winbox is that it can use MAC-Telnet to connect to the device. This is convenient since the device is accessible even if there is no IP address assigned on the interface the managing computer is connected to. +MikroTik devices can be configured in multiple ways: WebFig (the webinterface), WinBox (native app), SSH or serial console.
