Why take this course?

Many of you as network engineers have been requested to install a complete wireless network in a hotel, mall or exhibitions so the Wi-Fi covers the whole area to allow users to enjoy the wireless internet connectivity. In such a complex network, you require 10's and sometimes 100's of Wireless Access Points (APs) to provide the full coverage.

Those APs require configuration to let them work, so if you have for example 100 APs to configure then you need to configure them one by one and this takes a lot of time.

In our case, we can use MikroTik CAPsMAN so all MikroTik AP's can be controlled from one device and all settings on the Wireless can be changed from the CAPsMAN MikroTik Router - and this is the mission of this course.

In this course, I will show you how you can connect all APs to the CAPsMAN and how you can control everything from the CAPsMAN itself. With a real LAB scenario, I will show you step by step how you can configure everything at the CAPsMAN then we will connect to the wireless and see that it is going to be working without any problem.

Topics that will be covered in this course are:

  • Initial Configuration on the CAPsMAN

  • Connect the CAPs to the CAPsMAN with and without certificates

  • Create Channels in CAPsMAN

  • Create Security profiles in CAPsMAN

  • Create Configuration containers in the CAPsMAN

  • Create Datapaths in CAPsMAN

  • Make Provisioning in the CAPsMAN

  • Configure VLAN's on CAPsMAN

  • Create Access lists

  • Make a backup CAPsMAN for failover

MikroTik CAPsMAN is very required and information about how to configure it is not very clear, so this course can be like a reference for you to understand in details with LABS how to make MikroTik CAPsMAN works.

I hope that you will enjoy my course.

The information is there but you can work a little bit on the sound quality (echo) as it also results from the caption which in this case useless.

I like the trainer very much and his course was easy to follow. I would recommend having some equipment so that you can follow along. Since this was like a tutorial so to speak, there wasn't much theory. I am having to look elsewhere for more in-depth knowledge. The course helps you with the how but not as much as I would like with the how. Thanks Maher.

Complete documentation of a simple CAPsMan scenario, that can be easily distributed to many APs. To the point and clean configuration for the requirements of the Lab, not ideal for a real world configuration. The course lacks implementation on the 5 GHz frequency and Layer 3 configurations (basically in the backup-failover state). Sure those things can/will be covered in a future update or another course for Mikrotik Wireless. Other aspects that could be covered is: - How Mikrotik distributes antenna usage depending on the number of slave SSIDs - What can be done to encrypt CAPsMan data from CAPs (not DTLS communication) - A bit more coverage of the scenarios Local forwarding advantages over CAPsMan forwarding in real life loads - Radious Server as an Access List helper on crowded networks

An Easy Step by Step guide, Available too in the MTCWE course. I usually play at 1.25 to make it faster. Covers all the basics and extras for CAPsMAN to work effectively.

This is a very good step by step course for implementing CAPSMAN in your organisation. I used this to configure all access points in my hotel

It was simple, even did not cover the whole capsman settings, showing them and how they work was very useful and help on google better about the subject.

Yes, this course helps me a lot understand better how Capsman works. I may suggest also showing how dual channels Caps may be configured.

I took the course because I already knew a little about the world of Mikrotik and I wanted to deepen the aspect of centralized WiFi. I saw this course and bought it. Initially I was a little hesitant because my knowledge of English is very basic. But I must say a very good teacher and managed with simple words to explain everything and then thanks to the example he was very clear. They certainly bought more courses on Udemy and bought more courses from Maher Haddad.

Thank you, it is a really good course. The only thing I've missed is dual band wifi specific configuration. It would be worth mentioning in one lecture.

I originally was following a PDF Mikrotik hospitality lab I found on Google but I started to get very confused with the instructions. Maher explains the CAPsMAN steps and the reasoning behind them very well.

Been running CAPsMAN at my home as an alternative to Unify and loving the functionality. This course gave me a good insight on what a lot of the functions do and how to approach any future setups. Thank You.
