# makerfloss.mikrotik_switch Configure a MikroTik RouterOS switch (CRS310) over SSH with `community.routeros`. The role provides the *mechanism*; real values live in `host_vars`. Each domain is gated by an enable-flag (defined in `group_vars/mikrotik.yml`) so you can apply a subset with `--tags`. ## Domains (enable-flags) | Flag | Task file | Tag | Does | |---|---|---|---| | `switch_identity_enabled` | `identity.yml` | `identity` | identity, mgmt IP, DNS/NTP, SSH on, disable unused services | | `switch_users_enabled` | `users.yml` | `users` | named admin user, import SSH key, disable default `admin` | | `switch_vlans_enabled` | `vlans.yml` | `vlans` | VLAN-aware bridge, access/trunk ports, mgmt VLAN iface | | `switch_backup_enabled` | `backup.yml` | `backup` | `/export` + binary backup, fetched into the repo | | `switch_firmware_enabled` | `firmware.yml` | `firmware` | RouterOS + RouterBOOT upgrade to `switch_firmware_target` (opt-in) | > The per-domain task files are currently **stubs** pending implementation (see the > plan in `docs/superpowers/plans/`). ## Variables (`defaults/main.yml`) | Variable | Default | Purpose | |---|---|---| | `switch_identity_name` | `{{ inventory_hostname }}` | system identity | | `switch_mgmt_vlan_id` | `99` | management VLAN id | | `switch_mgmt_address` | placeholder | mgmt IP `addr/cidr` (override in host_vars) | | `switch_mgmt_gateway` | placeholder | default gateway | | `switch_dns_servers` | placeholder | DNS server(s) | | `switch_ntp_servers` | placeholder | NTP server(s) | | `switch_disabled_services` | telnet,ftp,www,www-ssl,api,api-ssl | services to disable (winbox kept for recovery) | | `switch_ssh_port` | `22` | SSH service port | | `switch_admin_user` | `sjat` | named admin user | | `switch_admin_group` | `full` | RouterOS group for the admin user | | `switch_admin_ssh_pubkey_file` | `~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub` | operator public key to import | | `switch_disable_default_admin` | `true` | disable the built-in `admin` after key login works | | `switch_bridge_name` | `bridge` | bridge to manage | | `switch_vlans` | example | list of `{id, name}` | | `switch_bridge_ports` | example | list of port definitions (see below) | | `switch_firmware_target` | `""` | RouterOS version to pin/upgrade to | ### Data shapes ```yaml switch_vlans: - {id: 99, name: "mgmt"} - {id: 10, name: "members"} switch_bridge_ports: # access port: untagged member of one VLAN (pvid) - {interface: "ether1", pvid: 10, mode: access} # trunk port: carries tagged VLANs; pvid sets the untagged/native VLAN - {interface: "sfp-sfpplus1", pvid: 1, mode: trunk, tagged_vlans: [99, 10]} ``` ## Idempotency RouterOS has no rich declarative module set over `network_cli`, so tasks use `community.routeros.command` with `:if ([:len [... find ...]] = 0) do={ ... }` guards. Always run twice and confirm the second run is a no-op.
