I'm actually kind of confused what the

Can someone tell me sth. about that? And does anyone know why these features aren't documented? Or have I been just to dumb to find them?

And why is this nowhere documented by mikrotik?

I assume mirror is the ROS instance that hosts the update packages.

yes, local mirror, this is for people who have networks of mikrotik routers, but have no internet connection
