You can change the allocated ports under /ip service. When I use the IP address/mask in the form 10.1.1.17/24 for my filtering or queuing rules, they do not work. The rules ‘do not work’, since they do not match the packets due to the incorrectly specified address/mask. The correct form would be: 10.1.1.0/24 for the IP addresses in the range 10.1.1.0-10.1.1.255, or, 10.1.1.17/32 for just one IP address 10.1.1.17. I need to set up DHCP client, but there is no menu ‘/ip dhcp-client’. The DHCP feature is not included in the system software package. You need to install the dhcp package. Upload it to the router and reboot!
