I need to turn two existing 10 Gbps SFP+ fibres between our sites into a single, resilient backbone. Site A runs a MikroTik CRS under SwOS, Site B uses an identical switch but on RouterOS. High availability is the goal, so if either fibre, port or transceiver fails traffic should flip to the surviving link automatically with minimal interruption. Both ends already trunk several VLANs, so the redundancy method must pass tagged traffic unchanged and avoid loops. I am open to bonding/LACP, STP variants, or any MikroTik-friendly approach that achieves true automatic fail-over and quick convergence on both SwOS and RouterOS. Deliverables • Complete configuration steps for each switch (CLI or GUI as appropriate) • Explanation of how VLANs remain intact across the bonded links • Simple test plan: how to prove fail-over works and measure switchover time • Tips for ongoing monitoring and logging so I can spot future link issues I can supply current export files and remote access via VPN once we agree on the method. Let me know your proposed approach and estimated turnaround so we can lock this in.

With over a decade's worth of experience in network and system administration, I am confident that I can provide you with the insightful solutions you need to establish your desired high availability network infrastructure. I hold several important certifications, including CCNP, CCNA, RHCE which reflect my capacity in handling projects such as MikroTik Redundant Fiber Link Setup. My hands-on experience with MikroTik Routers and Switches is specific to your project requirements, raising the level of assurance you have for me to get the job done. My skillset goes beyond theory, extending into practical solutions with various vendors' devices like WatchGuard, Palo Alto, CheckPoint Firewall, SonicWall and many more that could assist in making this project a seamless reality. Additionally, my proficiency in configuring VPNs and my understanding of overlays like WireGuard and OpenVPN will ensure the necessary security protocols are firmly in place. Lastly, given that your network already ADCs many VLANs, I fully understand and appreciate the need to maintain continuity. This understanding arises from countless hours spent working on similar topology at my previous job roles. Moreover, I will provide you with a simple test plan and monitoring tips to ascertain effective functioning and quick spot on future link issues. Choose me for this project and expect not only a job well done but also meaningful ongoing support post-delivery.

I will implement a resilient 10 Gbps backbone using LACP bonding between your MikroTik CRS switches (SwOS ↔ RouterOS), ensuring seamless failover and loop-free operation. I’ll configure bonding interfaces, trunk VLANs across the bond, and align settings on both ends for fast convergence. VLAN tags will remain intact via proper trunk configuration. I’ll deliver step-by-step configs (SwOS GUI + RouterOS CLI), plus a failover test plan to validate automatic switchover and measure downtime. I’ll also set up monitoring (logs, link status, alerts) so you can quickly detect fibre/SFP issues. Estimated turnaround: 1–2 days after access is provided.
