Q & A

What is the main goal of Group 3's presentation?

The main goal is to explain how to configure MikroTik using VMware, manage user profiles, and customize the login page.

How do you begin the setup process for MikroTik in VMware?

You start by opening the VMware software, creating a new virtual machine, selecting the installer ISO file for MikroTik, and configuring the machine's settings.

What are the hardware settings for the virtual machine in the setup?

The virtual machine is set with 1GB of hard drive space and 512MB of RAM. These can be adjusted based on the system's requirements.

How do you install MikroTik on the virtual machine?

You power on the virtual machine, press 'Enter' to begin the installation, and follow the prompts. The default login credentials are blank for the username and 'Enter' for the password.

What is the purpose of setting up the Hotspot in MikroTik?

The Hotspot setup allows the configuration of network interfaces for user access, IP address allocation, and managing DNS settings, enabling the connection of users to the network.

How do you configure the IP and DNS settings in the Hotspot setup?

During the Hotspot setup, you define the local IP address, specify the range of IP addresses available for DHCP, and set up DNS servers, such as specifying the DNS name (e.g., kybtiket.ke).

How are user profiles managed in MikroTik?

User profiles are managed by creating different roles, such as 'employee' and 'guest', assigning them unique passwords, and applying the changes for each profile through the MikroTik interface.

What is the process to customize the login page in MikroTik?

To customize the login page, you extract the login page files, drag them into the hotspot directory in Winbox, and then choose a new template, such as the Metro Style template, for the login page.

How can you verify the login page customization?

You verify the login page customization by opening a browser, typing the DNS name (e.g., lp3t.unair), and ensuring that the new login page appears correctly.

What is the significance of using DNS settings in this configuration?

The DNS settings are important for translating domain names into IP addresses, allowing users to access the hotspot using a domain name (e.g., kybtiket.ke) instead of a raw IP address.
