Select the MikroTik SwitchOS switch and open its management window from the device toolbar.
The Link tab shows whether each port is enabled and has a live connection.
Confirm that the connected PC can reach the router before changing the port.
Disable the router-facing port, then repeat the same ping to verify that traffic stops.
Enable the port again and repeat the ping to confirm that connectivity returns.
Use the VLANs tab to inspect the switch’s current VLANs.
In System, enter a new identity and save it.
Reopen the lab and check the saved identity on the same switch.
