As the Dude is a free tool, why not release it under an open source license. The tool has a lot of potential but is extremely limited as far as development transparency goes. It runs on a linux based router but won't run on linux itself? Seems like this has a ton of other use cases. Stick it under a...

Is it possible to port forward based on DNS name? Sort of like Named Virtual Servers in apache. I have 2 websites running on 2 different internal servers but want to run both of them on port 80 (or 443). Basically, I want requests for www.domain1.com to go to 192.168.1.10 and www.domain2.com to go t...

I've tried it with 3 different power supplies from other RB750s we have here. \

Pikoro

i'm using the Power supply that came in the box with it. Also, I don't see anything wrong with the capacitors on the board. Granted, I haven't czeched them electrically (yet).

Pikoro

I have a RB740 here that was working just fine and then it started rebooting itself. There were no power issues where it was located so I thought it was a little unusual. Swapped it out with another and when I plug it in, the power light comes on, all the port lights come on, and the act light start...

Pikoro

BTW, I never asked, but back when I added this all to the wiki, I think they were giving out free MT licenses and I never claimed one.

Any chance of picking one up still?

Thanks

Pikoro

Can you email me the FCC and CE certification paperwork? For government projects here in Japan, the devices require Telec certification. Any paperwork you could send my way would be appreciated.

Pikoro

Any update on this? Has any action even been started?

Pikoro

It appears that, via application procedure 2: Application by submitting test reports for one set of sample equipment issued by a testing organization who satisfies the requirement specified by TELEC together with required documents That perhaps simply submitting the FCC or EC certification paperwork...

Pikoro

Any chance of getting these wireless cards Japanese Telec certified? Sure would open up a whole new market.

If any of these cards are already certified, can someone post the cert number for me?

Pikoro

How much are you looking to get rid of it for?

Pikoro

I am running that exactsame command via a php script right now. That is why this is so frustrating.

When are you guys going to have a MUM in Japan?

I happen to work at an ISP and that is how we do it actually. We set a Session-Timeout with the amount of seconds until the next bill is overdue by one month. If the user pays before then, then their modem will briefly disconnect and reconnect and the user is none the wiser, however, if they do not ...

Pikoro

Well the 24 hours was just an example. You could scale it to 30 days or whatnot. Perhaps a script that calculates the number of seconds in the next month and updates the radius database accordingly by radgroup. The other way might be to send an admin-request disconnect to the clients at the end of t...

Pikoro

Why not just add a "Session-Timeout" variable to your radius profile for that group? That way, the users' client will automatically disconnect and reconnect after the specified timeout period, for example, after 86400 seconds (24 Hours).

Pikoro

Here's how you do this: In dude, go to "Functions" and create a new function called: wireless_clients under "Code" paste in the following: array_size(oid_column("iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.mikrotik.mikrotikExperimentalModule.mtXRouterOs.mtxrWireless.mtxrWlRtabT...

We always order directly from Latvia since there is no local distributor. Shall I contact support@mikrotik.com?

Pikoro

Is there a way to set the R52 or R52H to 4.9Ghz? This frequency set is allowed here in Japan, but none of the country settings (japan-japan5) allow frequencies down into the 4.9Ghz range. The docs for the R52 series cards state that they are capable down to 4920.

Thanks

Pikoro

I have my remote MTs sending their logs to port 514 on my dude box and I don't see anything. My config is almost the same as yours without the email portion.

Pikoro

syslog server is still not working as well as cc email notifications.

Pikoro

on Debian or it's derivitives (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, etc..):

linux:# apt-get install msttcorefonts

This will install the Microsoft Core Fonts (fonts that come pre-installed on windows)

Pikoro

Same issue here. To: only work, not CC:

Pikoro

Along with syslog not working, it appears that email notifications do not send to the CC addresses. only the primary email address goes through

Pikoro

I want to do full remote syslog and use some custom scripts to manage the thing via an internal website. Hence, putting it on a 433 is basically out.

Pikoro

Well, getting closer. It will actually run now that all the libraries are linked. Looks like I am going to have to set up a chroot environment with the right versions of the libraries for it to run. No telling if it is dependant on other rOS features or packages in order to run. Good chance that it ...

Pikoro

Basically, the only way to do this right now is to provide an x server running on like tty12 and run it via wine so it's the only thing running in the x session. no window manager running, just dude. Putting it on tty12 makes it out of the way but you can switch to it if needed. I am looking at a wa...

Pikoro

No, it's updating our own dns server. Basically we have our dns server set up the same way that changeip or dyndns is.

Pikoro

headless? I am looking at doing this as a daemon so i can connect to it remotely. might be time to start hacking

Pikoro

Any chance you guys could make a standalone verson of the dude package to run as a daemon under linux?

It sure would be handy to be able to have a linux box doing my network onitoring without having to have to waste an entire x86 box by loading rOS on it.

Pikoro

BTW, it was a problem with how I was passing the parameters to the API. All fixed. Also, if anyone is in need of a dynamic dns script (private server, not like dyndns.org), let me know. I may post it in the wiki. We have a MT that, for some reason, the standard dyndns script we have does not work. W...

Pikoro

I seem to remember seeing a complete list of api commands with their console equivelant somewhere. Has anyone seen that or have a link?

I bring it up because I am trying to run a command but it appears that the paramaters aren't getting passed properly.

Thanks in advance

Whenever I open winbox it says "downloading plugins" when the version of routeros is something that I haven't opened yet. If there was a way for us to write our own plugins, then we could save a whole lot of effort and bug reports for you and your team. Give us a way to hook into winbox an...

Pikoro

Hows about open sourcing or providing a plugin api for winbox? (since we're stating the obvious here). I can do a vpn connection. The issue here is that not every computer I am on will allow that. It sure would be a nice feature if we could simply open a browser and check a few things without having...

Pikoro

Would it be possible to include a limited web browser inside of winbox? It would be very handy to be able to connect to the web based management consoles of boxes that the mikrotik has access to remotely. For example: Mikrotik is connected to a fiber to ethernet converter in order to get to the inte...

Here is my 3.10 rule:

Pikoro

You need to add the mac addresses into your radcheck table in radius in the following format:

Username: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Attribute: Password
op: ==
Value: <blank>

This will allow the specified mac addresses to authenticate against your radius database and connect properly.

Pikoro

The goals is as stated in the original post. We have 3 buildings which have an omni on top of each. Each AP is backed by fiber optic however, we need to be able to route each customer based on the AP they connect to. In the area we are using, there is extreme noise pollution on channels 1-11, hence ...

Pikoro

Unfortunately, the fiber is not directly controlled by us. We cannot touch the fiber, it is only there so we can initiate a pppoe link to the internet.

Pikoro

Yes. There are extreme amounts of 2.4Ghz traffic pollution in the area where we are deployed at, but there are no APs using channel 13 (I'm in Japan).

So we use WDS to keep the APS all on the same channel without causing interference with eachother.

Pikoro

Ok, after sniffing traffic and trying every firewall rule I can imagine to block DHCP from going out over the wds links, I have come to the conclusion that what I am attempting is basically impossible. To confirm, can someone answer one question for me: Are all the wds links considered to be bridged...

Pikoro

However, it does not use the existing fiber optic connection available at each site. That is what I am trying to do.

Can someone provide me with the appropriate firewall rule to block broadcast requests for dhcp from traversing the wds?

Pikoro

No, 3 separate RB433s.

Pikoro

mikrotik1.gif I have 3 RB433s, each with 1 wlan card in them (AP1,AP2,AP3). Each AP is backed by it's own pppoe connection to the internet on ether1. wlan1 on each AP is in a bridge with no other interfaces. Dynamic WDS mode is set on each AP and they are connected on channel 13. Each AP has it's o...

Pikoro

Japan.

There is no local reseller and my company was interested in reselling until we saw the required amount of sales.

I've always ordered straight from Latvia in the past.

Thanks

Pikoro

Does anyone know of any place I can order any of these 2 boards? I need 6-10 Routerboards with at least 2 ethernet and 1 wlan (133 is perfect) but they don't seem to be for sale on the RB site anymore.

Pikoro

Yes, I have tried this. Most of the buildings I have antennas on have 3 antennas on them. All on the same channel (ch 13) and all wds'd together. Usually one is ap bridge and the other 2 are wds slaves. No interference problems at all. I have found wds very helpful with using a single frequency for ...

Pikoro

Why not simply put them all on Channel 1 and WDS them together?

Create static WDS links between each interface and add them all to the same RTSP bridge.

Give all of the wireless interfaces the same ssid.
Basically your array will appear as one big antenna.

Pikoro

I already checked that out. The mac addresses for all interfaces are unique.

I'm still new to the whole hotspot thing but my company plans on rolling out 15 or 20 hotspots within the next couple of months.

Pikoro

Question is, is this possible? I have 2 APs already up and running. They are wds'd to each other on thier normal interfaces. DONE: I have created virtual ap (vap-1) interfaces on each AP. I have set up a bridge (hotspot-bridge) containing the virtual ap interface on each AP. I have set up a hotspot ...

Pikoro

Call me an idiot.

When creating an IP address on a MT, RouterOS automatically sets the ip as (for example) 10.5.0.10/32 when it should be /24.

I have a MT WDS network set up using ROS2.9.49 (RB532a) with 20 nodes. Let me describe the layout first.

We would like to be a Japanese mirror. Can you send details for rsync or do we need to download by hand?

Thank You

Pikoro

Yes, I upgraded to the latest firmware. Same problem. I have tried net install and serial install.

I even had the rebooting problem when it was running linux from the CF card.

Pikoro

I have almost this exact same issue. We recently purchased 30 RB532As and only one of them has this problem. It boots normally, I can access it with winbox and via telnet/ssh, etc.... Then, at random, it will simply reboot. Using POE with a 1m network cable, 2 R52 wlan cards, running at 399Mhz. Stil...

Just curious, I have a MT at the center of a WDS network that has 4 wlan ports. Everything is working fine (more or less) but just a quick question as to what the optimal mode should be for each of the ports. Right now, I have all 4 ports set to ap-bridge (since they each serve a different quadrant ...
