Re: Known issues and bugs - a list

on 6.34x

On RB2011, firmware shows 3.18 (even though I know I've updated to 3.24 before).
Tried to update again, and console shows firmware updated, but Winbox and console show 3.18 after reboot.

Re: Can anyone point me to how to setup a direct IPSEC tunnel?

Understood, thank you for the explanation.

Do other routers 'route' IPSec tunnels for say site to site communication?

The reason I ask, I need to connect via an IPSec tunnel to an Edgewater networks Edmarc router. It's basically SIP Proxy router.

It only supports IPsec tunnels for site to site.

No loss. Why deploy something that you haven't tested for your needs.

Seriously, if you could do better for cheaper, you would have. You chose Mikrotik because it has the most functionality of the product line vs cost. If you had unlimited money, you'd roll out Cisco.
