OPERATIONS GUIDE

v6.11.0

VLAN segmentation

Read-only discovery, staged planning and isolation verification.

The MCP includes a shared RouterOS VLAN guide adapted from the homelab-vlan-segmentation skill. Read it with get_vlan_segmentation_guide (topic: "all", or overview, discovery, layer2, policy, migration, verification) or the MCP resource mikrotik://knowledge/vlan-segmentation. The tool belongs to vlan-designer; the reference resource remains available in read-only/curated sessions and with Memory disabled. Reading it never contacts a router.

  • Audit: audit-vlan-segmentation produces a read-only topology and prioritized cleanup report, with unknown evidence and client-test gaps made explicit.
  • Plan: setup-vlan-network and setup-guest-wifi include the same guide in MCP, Dashboard → Prompts and Raycast → Prompts. They cover port/PVID/CPU membership, SSID/package differences, IPv4 and IPv6 isolation, protected management, remote routing, staged approval/rollback and real-client acceptance tests.
  • Remember: store verified addresses/VLAN maps per Device. Share only intentionally reusable safeguards, or explicit Group policies. No private topology is seeded and the guide does not write Memory or grant authorization to change devices.

Planner safety change: design_network_segment is a partial IPv4 scaffold, not an end-to-end isolation engine. It still defaults to apply=false. When internet=true, wan_interface is now required to avoid unscoped NAT; use internet=false when reusing existing NAT. isolate_from requires a reviewed isolation_before forward-rule .id, checked again before writes. Non-/24 DHCP requires an explicit valid dhcp_range; pools cannot include the gateway/network/ broadcast. Bridge/CPU tagged membership is deduplicated. Port admission/PVID, filtering activation, SSIDs, INPUT/IPv6 policy and client verification remain separate steps. Existing callers must supply these new prerequisites; incomplete requests fail before writes. Apply is sequential, not idempotent, and has no automatic rollback.

Rebuild/redeploy the MCP version you actually run, then reconnect clients to refresh their instructions/catalog. Editing this checkout alone does not upgrade an installed service. No live router configuration is changed by loading these workflows.
