Combining V2Ray with Mikrotik offers a potent solution for those seeking to enhance their online security and freedom. By installing V2Ray on a Mikrotik device, users can leverage the strengths of both technologies:
In today's digital age, ensuring the security and privacy of your internet connection is paramount. With the increasing concerns over data breaches, surveillance, and censorship, individuals and organizations are seeking reliable solutions to protect their online activities. One effective way to achieve this is by utilizing V2Ray, a powerful platform that provides a secure and private internet connection. When combined with MikroTik routers, which are renowned for their advanced networking capabilities, you can create a robust and secure internet access solution. In this blog post, we will explore how to set up V2Ray on a MikroTik router, enhancing your online security and privacy.
: You can use MikroTik’s advanced firewall and address lists to route only specific traffic (like YouTube or Google) through the tunnel while keeping local traffic direct. Implementation Methods There are two primary ways to get this working: catesin/Xray-vless-reality-MikroTik - GitHub v2ray mikrotik
Before beginning, ensure you have the following:
Create a standard config.json file containing your VMess, VLESS, or Trojan outbound configurations. Upload this file to your MikroTik’s storage (e.g., /flash/v2ray/config.json ). A basic client outbound structure: Combining V2Ray with Mikrotik offers a potent solution
: You need an ARM or x86-based MikroTik router (e.g., hAP ax series, RB5009, or CHR). Small MIPSBE devices generally cannot run containers.
/interface veth add name=veth1 address=172.17.0.2/24 gateway=172.17.0.1 One effective way to achieve this is by
This network ( 172.17.0.0/24 ) is now ready for your containers.
/ip firewall address-list add list=direct-list address=10.0.0.0/8 comment="Local networks bypass"
Running a lightweight V2Ray/Xray container directly inside MikroTik's native Docker container environment. This is ideal for ARM, ARM64, and x86/CHR (Cloud Hosted Router) boards with sufficient RAM.
External USB drive or MicroSD card formatted to ext4 (strongly recommended to save internal flash memory rewrite cycles).
