In this lecture, you will learn how to configure an IPIP (IP-in-IP) tunnel on MikroTik RouterOS to securely connect two remote networks over the internet. This session provides a step-by-step configuration guide for creating a stable IP tunnel between two MikroTik routers.
The lecture explains the working principle of IPIP tunneling, where one IP packet is encapsulated inside another IP packet to establish communication between remote sites. You will learn how to create the IPIP tunnel interface, configure local and remote tunnel endpoints, assign tunnel IP addresses, and configure routing so both networks can communicate through the tunnel.
In addition, the lesson demonstrates how to configure firewall and NAT rules if the routers are behind public networks, and how to verify the tunnel status to ensure that traffic is successfully passing between both locations.
Practical testing and troubleshooting techniques are also explained to help identify connectivity issues and confirm proper tunnel operation.
