## This post is a step-by-step guide on how to install a Mikrotik 620 Router/AP in a VMware virtual machine. This configuration allows the router to function as an access point with DHCP and it will serve as a gateway for devices connected to the host's network. Step 1: Create a new VMware virtual machine from the UI or CLI -> - New VM -> Network -> Type: NAT -> *VM Network Adapter* NAT - *VM Hard Disk* D:\\VM_Data\\620_mikrotik\\WinXP .img, 40 GB, VMDK, IDE or SCSI type depending on what your physical hard drive type is. Step 2: Open the virtual machine and go to: Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing Center -> Change adapter settings: - *Local Area Connection* Properties: - *Access Type*, *File Name*, - Remember the settings, Apply Step 3: Go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services, right click on the "DHCP Client" service, Properties -> "Startup type", Disabled. Check the box to "Stop the service", then click OK to close the window. Step 4: Delete 'Ethernet Controller' under 'Network Adapters' in Control Panel -> Device Manager. Step 5: You will need to use the native DHCP client of the Mikrotik Router/AP. In VMware, navigate to your VM settings, advanced settings of your virtual machine. Go to a network adapter and a 'Add' section, choose a *Network Address/prefix length* and a 'Gateway'. Set it as a 'DHCP Client', unchecked "Use default gateway on remote network", select 'Obtain an IP address automatically' and same for the remaining 2 items. Now you can connect to your Mikrotik router by using an Ethernet cable from the host's network card to one of the ports on your Mikrotik. (Note: The native DHCP client should work with any computer you can install Wireshark on, so I should be able to record the packet captured by the Mikrotik router, but it has always worked before so I'm not sure why I should report this.) Repeat the steps above to configure other network adapters. Step 6: Open 'Ethernet' in VMware -> 'Network Adapters' -> right click on your preferred adapter, select properties -> click on "Advanced". Go into the 'Adapter Type', uncheck "Use Microsoft virtual adapter" and check "Enable Native VLAN support", then move to the next window which is showing Properties of your physical networking card. You must change your IP address to an IP address in your bridge network, just in case you're wondering. Step 7: Now we need to turn on our Mikrotik's embedded OS and connect it to the bridge network just created. - Open a terminal: menu -> tools -> shell. Type the following commands: -> set ether1 0x0; set ether2 0x0; set ether3 0x0; set ether4 0x0; save (Note: After typing this command, you should see "Prologue code loaded successfully" and also "Saving NVRAM configuration"). eccc085e13
