If a pre-defined pattern is found in the connection, then based on the conditions defined in the filter rules using the layer7 protocol, an action will be taken on the data stream. This regexp is used to define search patterns for keywords in the URLs. This matcher is based on the entries added to the ‘Regexp’ (Regular Expression) field in the L7 Protocol. The L7 protocol matcher searches for certain patterns of data in the first 10 packets, or in the first 2KB of data, in the TCP/UDP/ICMP streams of any new connections.
The Layer7 Protocol on MikroTik can be found in the IP > Firewall section. MikroTik’s Layer7 Protocol can be used to mark and block unwanted traffic, in this case all the p2p (BitTorrent) data.
In order to prevent this, it is recommended that torrent downloading be blocked altogether in a shared network environment. This happens because in order to download data using torrents, a peer-to-peer (P2P) network is established wherein a large number of simultaneous connections to the various peers are created by the BitTorrent client which stresses out the resources on your router/modem. In a shared network environment such as offices, co-working spaces, restaurants or cafes, someone downloading files using torrents will result in problems for the rest in browsing the internet efficiently, latency while video conferencing etc. Using popular BitTorrent clients such as uTorrent/BitTorrent etc, we can load a torrent file or a magnet link into it and it will start downloading required files such as software, video, music, ebooks, games etc. We can also do the same to block youtube sites, etc. Please try and apply yourself.How to Block BitTorrent Traffic using MikroTik Layer7 Protocol Look again at this rule Block Facebook in Mikrotikĭrop packets rate it up right.
