Dude for 7.1?

Probably a dumb question, but I noticed there isn’t any Dude image or install downloads for any of the latest 7.1 RouterOs downloads. Is the Dude server no longer going to be updated?? I’m trying to just do a Windows Net install onto USB stick and I can’t select a Dude 6.49 install if I’m doing a 7.1 system.

Not dumb - I asked sales@mikrotik.com but got no response. I kept thinking it appear in some late beta or “rc”.

I’d imagine it will make a reappearance, maybe updated – although I’d take the same one running as an extra-package under v7. Now in reality, not sure it be a good idea to run networking monitoring on a new OS/kernel/etc. At the same time, it be nice not to have to deal with the v6/v7 differences once v7 is released.

Dear Mikrotik support team.

I think people request tthis often and you should give some sortf of reply on whether there will be a Dude v7 ever, at all.

Best regards.

Yes, we are working on it, it will be made

Thank you!

Any idea of a release date? :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

My guess is not before 7.x reaches stable.

will it be in 2021?

If I was a bookie, I’d be putting that 100-to-1 the Dude comes out before end of the year. Mikrotik does likes surprises (see ZeroTier, Containers) – even if customers would prefer less mystery.

Where’s that Dude Nostradamus?

If we are lucky we will see a first beta before q1 2022 ends. If we are lucky.

What´s the point in having the dude client 7.1 without having the server? weird :S

That could be “god’s” sign that it is coming?

Damne Jeez! Just inntalled it, found no God package in it!

Any updates about this? Or at least a planned release quarter year? :smiley:

Is this 7.1 stable really stable? In the neighbor list the reported version is still “testing”.

Hello, I do not understand why you have been publishing Dude V7 CLIENT for a long time, if SERVER V7 not exist, can anyone logically explain it to me?

Mmm, my previous post was somehow published and then deleted…

I was asking about a possible ETA for v7.1 Dude server? It was disappointing to upgrade my RB4011 to v7.1, upgrade my Dude client, and only to discover afterwards that Dude server wasn’t still available.

I was thinking on buy a “dude edition” device instead my RB750Gr3, but I don’t understand how exist the 7.x client but none of 7.x server working yet… Sorry but the purchase of high end switch will be delayed with no date…

I have bought 200$ mikrotik and I just found I can’t use it with dude because I can’t downgrade it to v6 (because it is factory set to v7) and there is still no dude for v7.
I hope I will not have to wait for too long. Fingers crossed.
