Re: CRS112-8G-4S routing power far below specs (unusable)

yes
Well, sorry to bother you. My testbed is made just of masquerade. Please, What kpps value are you getting during a speedtest (OOKLA)?
You could get it easily:

interface monitor-traffic [interface]

Maybe my CRS112 is simply defective.

Re: CRS112-8G-4S routing power far below specs (unusable)

maybe you should return it and buy something else. I have two CRS112's in service. both route 50mbps links just fine. I wouldn't expect such a low power CPU to route any faster. The specs on the site show a best case. Bottom line, if you need faster routing, buy a router that can handle double what...

Re: VLAN & CPU load on CRS-112-8G-4S-IN

Keep in mind that if you need, just connection tracking enabled, this router is able to process just 2.5 kpps.
Differently from other CRS models you could use it just as a switch.

Re: CRS112-8G-4S routing power far below specs (unusable)

Most of CRS router got enough power to manage a common internet connection of max 100 Mbps (most of the time 50 or 30 FTTC) As a switch this device will loose any market appeal. In my experience Is wrong to say that a CRS is intended as a switch, only the CRS112 is just a switch. This way to read sp...

Re: 100 % CPU on x86 ROS hotspot after v6.7 upgrade

the problem it's again here, currently I'm using 6.32.2
This time the CPU goes to 100% after few minutes after startup.

Profiler reports "management" as the most consuming CPU process (70%)
What does it mean?

I've assigned more CPU cores to the VM, how to let routerOS to recognize them?
