Bored and looking for trouble, I upgraded everything to the latest beta.
Tell me how foolish this is.
Ride the lightning!!
Why beta and not 7.11.2 ?
I use my home setup frequently for testing beta releases but for that number of devices, I wouldn’t even think about it.
Probably my mistaken thinking that the latest version fixes the problems that exist in the previous version combined with skepticism about how a version comes to be labeled “stable.”
Tell us about the pain or absence thereof please.
Nice work. Let us know if you see any issues at all. This can seriously help move development along, if more people use the beta.
So far everything is working very well.
-
Would it be helpful to post the logs of these devices? If so, is there any security-related info in the logs?
-
Is there a way of retrieving log data prior to the previous reboot so I can go back to the beta3 upgrade log entry?
If no problems, no reason to post logs.
If you see some crash or other thing, make SUPOUT.RIF file, it contains no sensitive info, but don’t post here, email support@mikrotik.com with the file and description what happened
No crashes, but a few of the devices have been rebooted since the update.
Any way to get the log to show all entries going back across a couple of reboots?
Not unless you enable logging to disk or USB storage.
Or use an external syslog server.
Attached are all the logs except for 1 that has nothing but firewall activity for a rule that I forgot had log checked and another for a recently rebooted device with nothing of interest in the log.
If there is anything interesting in the logs, I’d love to hear about it.
