Centralize your wireless network management using MikroTik CAPsMAN and understand how to configure it
Many of you as network engineers have been requested to install a complete wireless network in a hotel, mall or exhibitions so the Wi-Fi covers the whole area to allow users to enjoy the wireless internet connectivity. In such a complex network, you require 10's and sometimes 100's of Wireless Access Points (APs) to provide the full coverage.
Those APs require configuration to let them work, so if you have for example 100 APs to configure then you need to configure them one by one and this takes a lot of time.
In our case, we can use MikroTik CAPsMAN so all MikroTik AP's can be controlled from one device and all settings on the Wireless can be changed from the CAPsMAN MikroTik Router - and this is the mission of this course.
In this course, I will show you how you can connect all APs to the CAPsMAN and how you can control everything from the CAPsMAN itself. With a real LAB scenario, I will show you step by step how you can configure everything at the CAPsMAN then we will connect to the wireless and see that it is going to be working without any problem.
Topics that will be covered in this course are:
Initial Configuration on the CAPsMAN
Connect the CAPs to the CAPsMAN with and without certificates
Create Channels in CAPsMAN
Create Security profiles in CAPsMAN
Create Configuration containers in the CAPsMAN
Create Datapaths in CAPsMAN
Make Provisioning in the CAPsMAN
Configure VLAN's on CAPsMAN
Create Access lists
Make a backup CAPsMAN for failover
MikroTik CAPsMAN is very required and information about how to configure it is not very clear, so this course can be like a reference for you to understand in details with LABS how to make MikroTik CAPsMAN works.
I hope that you will enjoy my course.

How to enable CAPs on MikroTik routers
How to connect the CAPs to the CAPsMAN via layer 2 and layer 3 connectivity

Another course well explained.
Thank you.
The information is there but you can work a little bit on the sound quality (echo) as it also results from the caption which in this case useless.
I like the trainer very much and his course was easy to follow. I would recommend having some equipment so that you can follow along. Since this was like a tutorial so to speak, there wasn't much theory. I am having to look elsewhere for more in-depth knowledge. The course helps you with the how but not as much as I would like with the how.
Thanks Maher.
Well, it was fantastic. I use CAPsMan in my company and I have happy i am learning new things as well as, developing myself.
Good
the best
Awesome Labs
Complete documentation of a simple CAPsMan scenario, that can be easily distributed to many APs. To the point and clean configuration for the requirements of the Lab, not ideal for a real world configuration. The course lacks implementation on the 5 GHz frequency and Layer 3 configurations (basically in the backup-failover state). Sure those things can/will be covered in a future update or another course for Mikrotik Wireless.
Other aspects that could be covered is:
- How Mikrotik distributes antenna usage depending on the number of slave SSIDs
- What can be done to encrypt CAPsMan data from CAPs (not DTLS communication)
- A bit more coverage of the scenarios Local forwarding advantages over CAPsMan forwarding in real life loads
- Radious Server as an Access List helper on crowded networks
lot of experience relatively to the duration of the course
