MikroTik has so far come up with 6 license levels of its RouterOS, the operating system that is pre-installed in its devices such as routers, bridges, and access points. One of these is L6. Unlike the other previous licenses, which act as wireless Internet service providers, L6 is designated as controller and has therefore a much better relationship with the other parts of the network. MikroTik RouterOS is the operating system of MikroTik RouterBOARD hardware. It can also be installed on a PC and will turn it into a router with all the necessary features - routing, firewall, bandwidth management, wireless access point, backhaul link, hotspot gateway, VPN server and more. RouterOS is a stand-alone operating system based on the Linux v2.6 kernel, and our goal here at MikroTik is to provide all these features with a quick and simple installation and an easy to use interface.
Flexibility
Devices that are installed with RouterOS L6 can also be used as an access point to help broadcast the Internet signal wirelessly and to different locations, bridge to help various LAN networks communication, as well as a wireless client. It also supports different kinds of protocols, namely, RIP, BGP, and OSPF, as well as tunnels such as EoIP, PPTP, and PPYP. You can also create unlimited VLAN interfaces.
Security and Networking
RouterOS L6 works without putting any limit to the HotSpot active users. You can also have unlimited queues and run a web proxy to make the network and connection invisible. It is compatible with RADIUS client, which is helpful when you want to authenticate logins. These further protect the privacy of online users.
