export to file doesn't show ethernet interfaces

RouterOS General
1

Hi all,

I wanted to move my config from my RB750G to RB2011UAS-2HnD-IN, RB750 with RouterOS 5.26 shows nothing about interfaces when doing /export compact.
Then I decided to upgrade to v6.0 although I didn’t wanted because is uses more RAM than v5, from 32MB I have about 9MB left and if something at one moment will need more RAm the router might reboot without notice, but I still upgraded, now when I use /export file=file.rsc again the ethernet interfaces aren’t shown as they should…could smb tell me what’s wrong ? Thank you.

/export file=export.rsc

/interface ethernet
set 0 arp=proxy-arp comment="interface LAN"
set 1 master-port=LAN1
set 3 comment="interface WAN"

/export verbose file=export.rsc

The export only safes information you have changed. Is there anything in those Ethernet interfaces that you have changed? If not, they will not be in the export.

I’m trying now to go the other way, edited “export verbose” and removed mac-addresses and added wireless intrefrace and other stuff that RB750G doesn’t have but when running this command: /system reset-configuration no-defaults=yes run-after-reset=config.rsc nothing happes after reboot.
No I’m trying to /import config.rsc but I get this error:

[admin@MikroTik] > /import file=config.rsc
Opening script file config.rsc

Script file loaded successfullyno such item
interrupted
[admin@MikroTik] >

How to find out what causes the error? Which topic to enable in Logging ?

Thank you.

Issue solved!
I just want everyone to know that a simple backup on RB750 and then restore on RB2011 will WORK without an issue at all, I had headaches with export that will not import properly. Don’t know why I didn’t try backup/restore first of all.

Good luck to all.

definitely it’s there: interface 2 is called ‘LAN3’, but it’s not in export
