Prevent your ISP from tracking or hijacking your DNS requests by forcing DNS resolution through the V2Ray proxy.
Pairing V2Ray with (RouterOS) creates an enterprise-grade, silent gateway. Instead of running V2Ray on a fragile PC or smartphone, you run it on your router. Every device connected to your MikroTik—from smart TVs to IoT sensors—automatically becomes censored-free.
/ip route add gateway=192.168.88.10 routing-mark=proxy-route
/file upload source="C:\config.json" name="config.json" /file copy config.json /disk1/v2ray/ v2ray mikrotik
If your MikroTik lacks the CPU power to run containers, use this method to route target traffic through an external V2Ray instance running on your local network (IP: 192.168.88.254 ). Step 1: Mark Specific Traffic
/interface/veth/add name=veth_v2ray address=172.16.10.2/24 gateway=172.16.10.1 /interface/bridge/add name=bridge_v2ray /interface/bridge/port/add bridge=bridge_v2ray interface=veth_v2ray /ip/address/add address=172.16.10.1/24 interface=bridge_v2ray Use code with caution. Step 3: Prepare the V2Ray Configuration
In RouterOS v7, you must explicitly declare routing tables before adding routes. Prevent your ISP from tracking or hijacking your
Deploying V2Ray on MikroTik RouterOS offers an enterprise-grade approach to network privacy. Whether using localized containerization or policy-based traffic mangling, this setup allows your entire home or office network to seamlessly bypass internet censorship without installing client apps on individual user endpoints.
Once the container is running, use in RouterOS to decide which traffic goes through the V2Ray tunnel. You can mark specific local IP addresses or destinations and route them through the container’s virtual interface. Alternative: The "OpenWRT" Bridge
Direct the marked traffic to the V2Ray client device. Every device connected to your MikroTik—from smart TVs
Suddenly, the digital fences vanished. Elias watched his monitor as restricted pages loaded in milliseconds. The MikroTik stood firm, its LEDs blinking rhythmically, acting as the perfect physical shield for the invisible spirit living inside its circuits. The workhorse and the shapeshifter had become one. technical steps
Create a dedicated veth interface for the container inside your isolated container network segment:
Running V2Ray directly on MikroTik RouterOS v7 via containers is elegant and cost-effective. You get an appliance-like experience: plug and play, no extra hardware. However, it requires deep knowledge of both V2Ray configuration and MikroTik’s container quirks.
