The capabilities of MikroTik devices are kind of inscrutable to those who have never put hands on them. Yes, they can route (in software). Yes, they can switch (in hardware, across most ports, depending on where they attached the switch controller chip). _All of them_. Some will be faster at some things than others, but by and large, all MikroTik devices have approximately the same capabilities (at potentially vastly different levels of performance, but checking the same boxes nonetheless). The key difference between different models are the physical interfaces (number and characteristics of the Ethernet ports, SFP ports, wireless radios). At a software level, RouterOS is basically just Linux with a consolidated and more consistent management interface. |
