Explain what the MikroTik “Firewall” is (and what parts it includes).

Describe packet flow in RouterOS: input / forward / output.

Use connection tracking states (new/established/related/invalid/untracked) in rule logic.

Know what each firewall facility is for: Filter, NAT, Mangle, Raw, Address Lists, Layer7, plus how FastTrack / NoTrack impact behavior.

Understand why MikroTik differs from many dedicated firewalls (default allow vs default deny) and why rule order + Safe Mode matters.
