5 WHAT IN THE HECK IS IT? 5 Mikrotik creates two main products. Hardware RouterBoard Series of hardware SBC (Single Board Computers) Industrial Design From 1 to 9 Ethernets From built on-wireless Cards up to 4 Wireless Interfaces x Standards Super Low Cost, most under 200 bucks! Great for smaller sites that don t need expensive and large amounts of traffic under 40 meg.

6 WHAT IN THE HECK IS IT? 6 Mikrotik creates two main products. RouterOS Software RouterBoard Products Made for Mikrotik Products Routing Software similar to IOS etc.

7 OK Great, and I should care? 7 For the Engineers No massively complicated Licensing Requirements Super simple interface High capacity Industrial Designs Unbelievable Feature Set! Infinitely Configurable Router No more, Access Concentrator, wireless Bridge, VPN server, router, etc.. 1 ONE DEVICE CAN DO IT ALL

8 OK Great, and I should care? 8 For the Engineers Unsurpassed Troubleshooting Tools All RouterOS powered Devices have the SAME software, so no can this device do this? If you can dream it, it typically can do it!

9 OK Great, and I should care? 9 For the Business Owners Cost! Standardization simplifies management costs. Ability to do multiple l tasks on single piece of hardware, means only one box to buy! Ultra Low cost for Lower end systems 9 port 10/100 Router under $249! Wireless Access Points Hotspot Concentrators VPN Servers High End Systems delivering performance over that of systems 10x the cost! Want to pay $1,500 instead of $15,000?

10 What can Mikrotik Do? 10 For the Engineer Router Up to 10GigE Routing Bandwidth Management Provide QoS (Quality of Service) Multiple Routing Tables 1+ Million Route Tables Dynamic Routing Protocols such as BGP/OSPF Multiple Routing Tables Policy Based Routing Send some customers out one connection vs. another Send some customers though adult filter SFP Fiber Interfaces
