I'm trying to setup a CHR router on Azure and would like for it to have a public IP address on the WAN interface instead of the private IP that Azure assigns to it. A bit of a background. We have a setup where where we have remote multiple sites using Mikrotik routers and these routers have a site-...

No problems running V7 on Azure. I recommend using Bicep to streamline your CHR installations for easier deployment on Azure. Thanks, though I only need to spin up 1 CHR instance for this situation so automating deployment isn't a benefit here. Any help with a tested & reliable way to deploy v7...

Nice !
WIll have to play with it tomorrow.

In the mean time I also found this:
viewtopic.php?t=153602

It's been a long time since then, so don't be surprised to see that the portal has changed completely!

FurfangosFrigyes

Ok, and how did you tackle that ?

Starting from which VM ?

B1LS or B1S VM is used for Mikrotik V7. It is very easy to install.

Has anyone ever successfully gotten a CHR instance running reliably in MS Azure?

I've got a use case where it would be helpful to have, but a quick cursory search didn't show anything helpful.

I am using CHR in Azure without problems! (S2S, P2S - VPN and Firewall)

FurfangosFrigyes

I am using many CHRs in Azure without any issue.

FurfangosFrigyes

The correct serial settings: 115200bit/s, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, flow control=none
Try to power off and on it helped me when i had similar problem.

The final solution is netinstall: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Netinstall

The EiRP is one thing the sensitivity is an other! When a device has an antenna with higher gain than it can receive the same client higher signal level than another device with less antenna gain. The EiRP will be the same on both devices. So the AX3 will be better than AX2.

If you're trying to play with CHR only, then you can live with free license. Functionality is all available, throughput is severely limited though. Many thanx for the link. Everything there described clearly. ---> Free licenses The free license level allows CHR to run indefinitely. It is limited to...

FurfangosFrigyes

You can transfer CHR licenses between two VM!

Yes, you can. But the old CHR has to be running so the license can be released. If old VM crashes and can't be restored, then ...

No, it doesn't have to run. You can do it on the website, even if the old VM doesn't run.

FurfangosFrigyes

If you haven't had a look at CHR licensing manual , then I think it wraps things up quite neatly. If you're trying to play with CHR only, then you can live with free license. Functionality is all available, throughput is severely limited though. And yes, in principle license is tied to a VM. You sh...

I have someone at a remote site verifying where cables are plugged in, we have a CRS328-24P-4S+RM. The manual contains no pictures of the device, and we need a clear and unambiguous description of which port is which. Is sfp-sfpplus2 the top left SFP+ socket, or the bottom left SFP+ socket? The lab...

I am using dedicated bridges on all affected Mikrotik devices and EoIP tunnels. It works without any problem with D-Telekom IPTV. I have a RB5009 as router. It has been connected to the ONT with 2 separated ethernet ports. ETH 1 is used to PPPoE connections, ETH2 is used to IPTV and connected to the...

Hi,

I have issue with speed detection of LAN on AX2.

Once is detected speed 1G and once 100M with the same device.

This most often happens because of a cable fault

FurfangosFrigyes

I add the guest interface to the bridge manually and set up the VLAN. It is not a nice solution. If i change anything on CAPSMAN side the name of the slave interface will be changed on the CAP and i have to reboot the CAP to restore the interface name/numbering otherwise the bridge config will be f...

FurfangosFrigyes

I am afraid that you do not have a clear picture about your needs and the opportunities with a Mikrotik CAP. Would yo be so kind to create a detailed LLD where we can see what do you want to achieve and how?

FurfangosFrigyes

You can use ETH2 as a WAN interface and add ETH1 and Wifi interfaces to bridge. The discovery interface can be the bridge itself.
You have to set up the Wifi interfaces to managed by capsman.

Hello, I am new to mikrotik. Firmware/OS is now 7.10. I used the quick setup to make a guest wifi/lan (works). I was just wondering which method mikrotik uses (default) to isolate the guest wifi from the lan. There's just one bridge, guest ip-range is the same as for the LAN. Sorry for being a noob...

if the manufacturer thought about security, there would be no empty password and an active interface when deploying a cloud image. how you can run such an image in the cloud with such settings is not clear at all. Have you studied at least the customer usage scenario ? do you understand that everyo...

'Local' in this case means interfaces using radios of a single routerboard. In practice, this means that fast BSS transition is supported between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz interfaces of dual band APs. Support for fast BSS transitions between multiple boards will be added in the future. How often one need...

Did you enable the IP Forwarding on the Mikrotik CHR VM NIC? IP Forward.png I didn't know about that before After I kept failing I googled some more and enabled that, still did not work, so I rebooted the VM and went to sleep. Will test more today. You need to add a route table to that subnet in Az...

Did you enable the IP Forwarding on the Mikrotik CHR VM NIC?

I have a CHR in Azure and it has only one interface with a public IP. I added a Network Security Group to the Mikrotik NIC and opened only the necessary port for the VPN connection. It is not problem to have only one NIC because i can configure the firewall on the CHR using the source IP address. I ...

Hey, i went with my CHR Instance from AWS to Azure and now i am not able to get my Cloud DDNS working. The Field "Public IP" still keeps empty and i don't know why. Does anyone have had the same issue? Azure provides public fix IP with FQDN so not necessary to use DDNS for it. If there is...

Do not forget to add custom routes to the Azure Virtual Network. In this case the CHR is working as a soft appliance.

FurfangosFrigyes

Try to downgrade to 6.47.8 and i think that your problem will be solved.

Hello,
Why hAPac2 and RB3011 have identical ipsec test results?
https://mikrotik.com/product/hap_ac2#fndtn-testresults
https://mikrotik.com/product/RB3011UiAS ... estresults
hapac2_rb3011_ipsec_test_results.png

There is a mistake on the product page. The RB3011 hasn't got IPQ4018 !

FurfangosFrigyes

- RB3011 port flapping
- CRS328 24p 4s+ crashed if the device has bonded interfaces

- RB4011 ok
- CAP AC ok
- HAP AC3 ok
- CHR ok
- HAP AC2 ok

FurfangosFrigyes

Hi, I have a few questions with HAP AC3 antenna specifically, and hope the wireless experts on this forum can assist: Are the two antennas identical and are used for both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? Similarly, are both antenna connector at the back of AC3 used for both frequencies? Or is one 2.4Ghz and the ot...

FurfangosFrigyes

The frequencies are loked because of the shared antennas. The two 5GHz RF output cause trouble if the emmitted power is on the same freqency at the same time.

The two 5GHz range is not overlapped so you can select the right interface for the requested frequency without any trouble or disturbancies.

FurfangosFrigyes

From product specification: "RouterOS 7.0 (compatible only with v7 and above)"

FurfangosFrigyes

the antenna 2.4Ghz Could it's work with 5Ghz And vice versa ?? and why ??

Theoretically, Yes. If the wave lenght is half or double compare with the original designed wave lenght the transmitted power will be radiated with small amount of SWR. But it is a complex story!

FurfangosFrigyes

The 3rd band of Audience is useless as it is on a limited channel for meshing I believe.

You can use the 3rd band within the specified frequency range for normal operations not only for Mesh!

FurfangosFrigyes

Ceee means 5GHz (as 2.4GHz allows Ce at max). Here is (part of) my config: /caps-man channel add band=2ghz-g/n control-channel-width=20mhz extension-channel=disabled frequency=2462 name=f-2462 tx-power=9 add band=5ghz-a/n/ac control-channel-width=20mhz extension-channel=Ceee frequency=5500 name=f-5...

We are using CHR in Microsoft Azure and it would be nice if the Mikrotik image can be used thru Azure Marketplace.

The second missing feature is the Azure Guest OS diagnostic agent that can provide integration with Azure services like Site recovery and VM backup.

FurfangosFrigyes

The RB3011 USB port has been stopped working after fw upgrade. The solution was downgrade the firmware to longterm and upgrade only the packages but no firmware.

FurfangosFrigyes

I have updated RB4011 and CRS328-24P-4S+RM and the SFP+ (DAC (S+AO0005)) Rx FCS and Rx Align errors on RB4011 side is solved. Thank you!

FurfangosFrigyes

The red is not blinking just on with the blue one. The device is dead and i got a replacement from the dealer.

FurfangosFrigyes

Hi Guys! I have an Audience and after a reboot the red and blue led is on and the device is dead. The LED of LAN ports don't light. I have tried to use another power supply, and POE Switch without any result. I can not put the device in netinstall mode. Is it a well known symptom and/or a dead device?

FurfangosFrigyes

I have installed a Mikrotik CHR router on Azure and connected to this CHR -> L2TP and EoIP over that L2TP. It worked.

FurfangosFrigyes

I agree with you! But my tubes in the wall are full and it was a quick and dirty solution

If i will have to interconnect my equipments in the rack than the optic modules will be the solution.

My CRS328 has the following POE loads:

- 2 pcs CAP AC
- 1pc HAP AC^2
- 4pcs Hikvision sec. cameras
- 1pc Raspberry PI 3B
- 1pc RB4011
- 1pc RB3011

The System Healt:

CRS328.jpg

FurfangosFrigyes

It is less than 10 meters CAT5E without shild.

FurfangosFrigyes

I can not use fiber because of my existing cables. The only one problem with RB4011 is the high working temperature of the SFP+ module.

FurfangosFrigyes

Yes, i am using S+RJ10 modules between RB4011 and CRS328.
