MikroTik

stmx38

We've experience to use esim.me with Chateau 5G ax and it requires to use their app. 5ber.com needs to be checked and it also works trough their own services.

It would be good to have a direct ROS support on these ones or a Mikrotik produced card.

stmx38

> It is never third-party.

By third party I meant any services besides MikroTik Connectivity and their plans. Usually they send a QR codex which could be scanned and added to the phone.

Could we use them with a router?

stmx38

Could we use a third-party eSIM with MikroTik on supported devices?

Especially because of the limited Countries and only monthly based plans and a high price on MikroTik Connectivity.

Manual:The Dude v6/Tools - command will be executed on the Dude client OS, bot on the Dude server.

We probably can use an example from the wiki

plink.exe -ssh [Device.UserName]@[Device.FirstAddress] -P 22 -pw [Device.Password] "/system routerboard upgrade"

stmx38

It seems that it is similar to the latest Dude v7.

This bug is still present on Linux(and I think it was on macOS as well but not sure), WinBox 4.0beta14 ("Loading address db failed:"):

Where's the close/exit button in the new Winbox v4 client? All I see is "New WinBox" and the ellipsis that just shows settings.

When we are connected to the RouterOS, exit button is located in the top right corner.

• Custom Permissions: If you need to restrict access to certain maps, select this option and then adjust the permissions accordingly.

If ChatGPT has Dude source code and can send a patch to the Mikrotik team, that would be good

stmx38

That policy was removed in ROS 7.6.

You don't need it, just try to set full admin credentials and check the result.

stmx38

There is no native way to implement that and on the image you've posted some workarounds are used. You also can see one interesting example in that post . 1.

Had similar situation, in Airport via public Wi-Fi - Wireguard doesn't work.

There is a workaround, mentioned in this post - viewtopic.php?t=208218#p1081413, just one more confirmation that it worked at that point.

stmx38

does this happen when winbox is in full-screen mode or also in windowed mode?

No, just a maximized window. But I do remember it happens also in a smaller one - just a custom size.

stmx38

WinBox can be run on M3 via CrossOver (24.04 - latest for today), but after some time, it just stop to react to any clicks. You have to close it, or even CrossOver, and start again, which is very inconvenient.
Maybe some special CrossOver setting?

But in general, it is better than nothing.

stmx38

Dude v6/v7 uses WinBox port which is 8291 by default - Manual:The Dude v6/First use.

If you like to change it, you would need to use a non standard port for WinBox.

stmx38

How did you do restore, can you please provide a list of steps?

stmx38

Did you try to restore backup on another device to check how restore is working and if all the information is in-pace?

You can try to install a CHR on VM and restore DB.

There are some notes about restore in the Dude v6 - Backup locally.

stmx38

Another solution for those that need to regularly swap SIM cards could come from esim.me

Thanks, we've successfully tested that eSIM/SIM with a Chateau 5G ax.

It would be very suitable to have a native support of the eSIM in Mikrotik devices

stmx38

With CHR you do not pay for a device and rather for a license, but it probably adds some overhead for Mikrotik, at least to handle these licences and ROS support.

If you have a lab with 5 CHR it is ~ 200$ for just some testing/learning, but yeah there can be different points of view on that.

Some thoughts: 1. In case of CAPsMAN you probably can get the total number of clients. 2. Can we add a device wit the name UPC and with the IP of the PC and it should be transparent for you. But related to your question - I'm not sure if it is possible to show results of the generic SNP queries to s...

Hello, jinu

Hello, SergeS and welcome to the Dude community :) Initially Dude was only for Windows and it was v2, v3 and v4. Now we have Dude v6 and documentation for the latest version is also marked with v6 prefix - https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Category:Dude 2) Are there any manual on Dude's functions? Some...

Not sure if something like this exists.

We probably can we disable dude, remove it's folder from the disk and enable dube back. But this will remove also all devices and settings.

For the start 1GB/128MB can be enough.
It depends on how long you plan to store your history and how much probes do you have.

Unpin this thread and make a new one for Dude v7 Make it sense? I think that nothing was implemented from the mentioned suggestions in the v6 and hope it will be done in v7. And now we have v6 and v7 is in progress , so we need for some period of time to maintain information for both versions. And ...

You probably can follow already proposed solution

You will not be able to install the Dude-Server on any MIPSBE-Device.

If you want to Test and / or play with the Dude, i suggest you use someting like the hEX S or CHR

The_Dude_v6/Installation

Note: For models with 16MB on-board storage use of USB/μSD storage is required to run The Dude server on the device.

Your device is cAP ac and have only 16MB of storage and looks like it doesn't have any options to extend the storage, like MicroSD slot or USB port.

It is a feature request to add this variable, for now we can't display it.

And your question is about the label which probably does not exist as well and may sound like

And we should ask to add it as well.
