Hello Ronen,
Mikrotik is more of a boutique type router.. very powerful, inexpensive,
etc but not a mainstream enterprise solution. You could say the same of
Vyatta, OpenWRT, etc. Anyway, much of the concepts that Mikrotik's
firewall uses are Linux terms. Per my previous email, there are a LOT
of Linux URLs, commercially written books, etc. on the topic so you
should start reading those materials.

Dear Rob
Thank you for Brief explain
Yes the Syntax of the Mikrotik is totally different then what i use to
Also the mikrotik is not popular here I had hard time to find stores that sell it and
i think im the only amateur who use it here
The help that comes with the web interface is not so explainable do you know where i
can find more explain on the commands (such as the explain you gave me about the
establish and new and related) ?
and if we talk on explain what is forward chain ? in and out i can understand but
forward?
and also there are a lot of commands in the action that i dont understand beside reject
drop accept
Where can i find description ?
Thanks forward

some of the verbs such as established sound
familiar from the days i used to work with Cisco access lists and checkpoint firewall
the new command wasn't known to me
The firewall filters in a MikroTik (and
on Linux in general) are far more advanced than the simple
access lists in a Cisco router.
On a Cisco router you generally just have static rules that allow e.g. traffic incoming
on some ports.
(there are some exceptions, e.g. "reflexive" access lists)
