6.20 is being prepared to release, we will release the newest version shortly.
We will be happy to receive feedback about 6.20rc from you.
What’s new in 6.20rc15 (2014-Sep-25 13:28):
*) fetch - fixed problem where files fetched over https were trimmed in size;
*) fixed problem - it was not possible to see & uninstall dude package;
*) stores are replaced with folders and disks are now managed under /disk menu;
*) added support for SMSC750x USB Gigabit Ethernet on x86;
*) ups - support selftest for smart and hid UPS;
*) pppoe client - increase connection timeout to make connection establishment
possible on busy pppoe server;
*) dhcp server - change default lease time from 3 days to 10 minutes
to avoid running out of IPs;
*) ipsec - allow binding modeconf address to username;
*) eoip/eoipv6/gre/gre6/ipip/ipipv6/6to4 tunnels have new features:
auto mtu (enabled by default for new tunnels);
dscp (inherit/specific value, inherit by default for new tunnels);
clamp-tcp-mss (yes by default for new tunnels);
*) eoip/gre/ipip/6to4 tunnels have dont-fragment option (inherit/no, no by default for new tunnels);
*) bridge has auto mtu feature (enabled by default for new bridges);
*) pppoe-server has auto mtu feature (enabled by default for new pppoe servers);
NOTE1: In v6.20rc all non-ppp tunnel interfaces got optimized and common set of features,
this is important step in direction to add fast path support to those interfaces.
Please, test non-ppp tunnels and report back with results.
NOTE2: 6.20rc15 is going through final testing, it will be the release as version 6.20.
Please, test and report back any persisting issues, so that we can fix that till final release.
I was feeling adventurous tonight and upgraded my 751G-2HnD from 5.26. I can’t login to webfig with firefox now, I get an “ERROR: Internal Server Error”. Chromium works, winbox works, telnet/ssh works… tried another reboot and resetting the password, no luck.
My GRE tunnel (to a C6500) seems to be working alright, though!
*) dhcp server - change default lease time from 3 days to 10 minutes
to avoid running out of IPs;
Hell yes, from one ditch, straight over the road into another.
If sysadmins were too clumsy to change them default lease times, now you make router to refresh them IPs every couple of minutes. From what I have noticed is this - when DHCP is refreshing them lease, users are without internets for small moment. Then there are those whiners who have online gaming or online chat or online whatever. They start calling you in and whining - why is my internets lagging every 10 mins or so. And just as Yoda said - “skrewed, my friend, you are”.
noyo,
try to reset the wireless configuration to default values and configure the settings you only need, like, ssid, band, frequency, security, power and then check if the problem is still there.
Enable the rstp protocol mode for your bridge interfaces.
Also check if you disable the SNMP monitoring do you still see this problem
Does the reboot happens only on the links with Nv2 wireless protocol?
nbctcp,
please write to support@mikrotik.com and attach a support output file from the board with the modem plugged in so we could check if we could add support for it or not.
So in short, if client is present, and active, it will never loose lease, even for a moment, lease time will be extended.
Only thing that changes is that instead of 2 DHCP packets every 1,5 days, now you will have 2 packets every 5min
There is no panic here, is there panic in your office ? Im just saying !
It was damn true back in 3.x times, then still true in v6.5, I dont see how it wont be true now. Then again, I did not do any hard tests on latest RC, so might be my bad, maybe they fixed something now. I am just pointing this out so that people test their networks for service continuity while they setup DHCP lease refresh this small. I had this back at the time, 10+ calls per hour just because this issue.
there is absolutely no point in assuming anything if that can be tested.
If they got this problem the problem is somewhere else. - it is easy to test it yourself - set minimal lease time for your own PC and see what happens. I’ve been on 10sec lease time since my previous post. VOIP, ping, and even some online games - no problems.
No news about the glitch on IPv6 routing over VLAN on PPC? (Ticket#2014032466000943)
I think that issues on IPv6 should be addressed due to the IPv4 exhaustion.
Hi, is possible add too support for ( Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe ) on x86 ?
I have a Dell PowerEdge r220 that no work with RouterOS.
I would like to inquire if anything has changed for IPSec between 6.20rc7 and 6.20rc16?
It seems that when I upgrade to 6.20rc16 from 6.20rc7, using the same config. None of my IPSec sessions are establishing
Well, DHCP Leases Address List bug seems to be fixed now.
But I can’t find any Stores in Winbox - they were moved from System → Stores to System → Disks, but it is completely empty - no disk, no storage. I can just see folders in Files windows. Is it OK?
