Delivered baseline CHR configuration

In the majority of MikroTik’s hardware router models, they come with a delivered, baseline configuration. MikroTik CHR however does not and I don’t see an option in it to tell it to implement a baseline configuration.

Am I missing something? Is there a terminal way or a point-and-click GUI method for telling a MikroTik CHR instance to implement a baseline configuration? I need a starting point to configure from and for the longest time, CHR has always just come with nothing and no option to just implement one easily.

This would be a nice feature to have that’s easy to utilize, especially when an insane person is telling another insane person to only allow government-approved routers (unless a company like Netgear pays a bribe.)

No, there is not such a feature AFAIK.

But you can make one based on a "default" configuration of a hardware model.

Usually (at least in GNS3) a CHR boots as a very "plain" machine with 8 ethernet interfaces, so the "base configuration" for reference could be that of a RB5009 (minus the sfp interface).

Tangent hosts a default configuration for it here:

A CHR deployed on a physical machine will be different, I believe, but still the only differences should be number and type of interfaces.

The most important thing to copy and set properly is the firewall, rextended mantains an upgraded/updated copy in this post:
