Re: Feature Request: RFC 8781 or PREF64 in router advertisements

There is a nice article here about why this is beneficial: https://labs.ripe.net/author/ondrej_caletka_1/deploying-ipv6-mostly-access-networks/ In particular: recent macOS will activate its built-in CLAT if it gets a DHCP 108 ("Pv6-only Preferred") *and* the router advertisement contains a...

Re: IPv6 Routing Mark in Firewall > Mangle Rules

Having had IPv6 via a tunnel broker for a long time, I now have another ISP connection with native IPv6. It would be *sooooo* helpful if I could policy-route packets with the old IPv6 source range down the tunnel, and packets with the new source range down the native connection. It would allow me to...

Re: Feature request: BGP4-MIB (RFC 4273)

# snmpbulkwalk ix-rtr2 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.5 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.187.1.2.5 = No Such Object available on this agent at this OID Sad face. So we're still forced to use the API. I was able to get check_bgp_mikrotik.pl plus MikroTik.pm to work, although a small patch to the latter is needed.

Re: BGP multithreaded

Forwarding and routing is good and fast as long as you keep all traffic in fastpath. It is a router not a firewall. True, but it is still good practice to do anti-spoofing filtering on a border router I also feel happier blocking traffic to the control plane with filters on the 'input' chain - you ...

Re: VRRP received packet with bad checksum

Did you get a solution to this? I am seeing exactly the same problem, here on CCR1036 running RouterOS 6.40.8; the VRRP partner is a Cisco 2901 running IOS 15.5(3)M7. VRRP version 3 has been configured on both sides. Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, R - running, M - master, B - backup # NAME INTERF...

I believe I got bitten by this today.

Re: /export without line wrap?

My apologies, I did not read "output to the file". I guess file wrapping is same as login with no pseudo-tty.

Re: /export without line wrap?

output to the file is set to one constant line length and cannot be changed. That's not the case: if you've connected from Linux over ssh, and you drag the window narrower or wider and re-run /export , the line breaks are in a different place to match the new width. The mechanism is described here:...

Re: hEX PoE not working with Copper SFP

Try forcing them to 1000/Full. I've seen a lot of SFP interfaces causing issues with auto negotiation, and normally forcing them to 1000/full on both sides causes the links to come up.
That was it:
/interface ethernet set 5 auto-negotiation=no
and suddenly it came up. Thank you!

Cheers,

Brian.

[SOLVED] hEX PoE not working with Copper SFP

Hello, I can't get my brand new hEX PoE to work with an Approved Optics copper SFP. I get no link light, however "interface ethernet monitor sfp1" shows that the SFP is detected (see below). I've tried two different SFPs, two different cables, and connecting both to a gig port on another c...
