Hi @mikrotik crew, first let me say how much I appreciate how v7 is shaping up. That said, I’m getting pretty desperate for BFD to come back. It’s a pretty critical component of our infrastructure and is one of the primary hold ups to rolling out v7 is there any chance we will see this in 7.4? o…

Kudos to the MikroTik team for keeping their cool given the tone by a few customers. Given that we’re dealing with humans on either side of the keyboards I don’t think they deserve the abuse they are receiving here, regardless of what their employers’ strategy, roadmap and quality of delivery may b…

Everyone here knows how BFD is important to you all. Development has many stages. Fortunately now BFD is in active internal testing stage, so - very close. When it was “in development” previously, it was in research / theory phase. In retrospect, it was probably a bad idea to release v7 without…

… would have been better to just use FRR instead … it would be just awesome if there would be native support for FRR in MT (like a npk package like the “rose” npk for example!) — speaking of, is there a topic covering that route?

Can you give us an ETA for BFD becoming available for external (beta) testing? WIP, ie soon! :wink:

+1 for BFD. Here’s a silly thought… If Mikrotik doesn’t want to open source their software, what would prevent us from flashing a lightweight Linux distro onto some of the arm-based routers and just run FRR? Personally, I would like to see my new CCR2216’s run Ubuntu or Alpine Linux. Then I could u…

what would prevent us from flashing a lightweight Linux distro onto some of the arm-based routers and just run FRR? Support for MikroTik hardware and the SoCs they use in mainline linux, bootloader peculiarities, to name a few. MikroTik makes it purposely hard for anyone to get current GPL sou…

On the one hand choosing a GPL licensed platform for your products (Linux) and then re-implementing lots of standard features from scratch for which better open source implementations exist is admittedly a weird hill to die on but it’s a business decision MikroTik has made because it must believe …

I’m trying to find out what this tells me about this market segment. Let me support you here. It can tell you that “floundering” is all the same in all market segments. Should be true for the whole IT business. Of course there are a lot of men in fast cars, trying to tell the contrary. Unfortu…

v7 and BFD, any ETA?
