It would be great to have possibility to send SNMP commands from MT to some network devices. My problem is that I would like to send command to APC to turn off outlet X and bring power again after Y seconds on some events.
I also have an âinternalâ feature request: better granularity for multi-cpu/core x86 systems.
In systems running multiple full bgp feed peers the table will grow quite big. 3 bgp full-feed peers with one ibgp peer with redistribution will grow the table to +1M routes.
I do not know how ROS works internally but I can tell you this: if I have firewall, qos and BGP active, thatâs trouble every time we get high packet rate (+100kpps), every time the firewall will do something, or every time there will be some dynamically added routes to the main table. The router will just go into resource starvation.
For example: if we disconnect and reconnect 2 peers, one core will go up to 100%, mostly everything else will lock up, winbox will disconnect and sometimes all the peers will disconnect.
I find this a very serious issue and it should be resolved by adding the possibility to specify which ROS process would go to which processor/processing core. For example we could specify that bgp instance default would go to cpu 0 and the firewall would be processed on on cpu 1 instead of automatically using the same cpu for everything the router does software and putting that in 100% which will sometimes break things.
even more: not only âon connectâ and âon disconnectâ, but âbefore connectâ so that it would be possible to set, for example, server address from the list of servers (RR DNS, etc.)
In Winbox, add two options to right click when clicking on a wireless client in the registration table to allow (1) Bandwidth Test and (2) Launch Winbox to open client in addition to existing mactelnet, torch etc.
It would be really nice to have this feature integrated. Just a few words why itâs really needed:
There are a couple of RB hardware models oriented for home use. And a lot of home users (at least here in Ukraine) have IPTV from their ISP and prefer working over wireless. However transmitting multicast over WiFi is always a bad idea because multicast over WiFi transmits without acknolege and therefore uses the lowest possible rate to assure packets delivery. Yes, itâs possible to increase base rate for multicast, however the more we increase rate, the more packets we lose. Thatâs why you will never get fast rate for multicast over WiFi. At the same time proxying multicast to TCP can offer maximum rate with no packet loss.
Honestly, lack of udpxy functionality in RouterOS is the only thing why I canât suggest RouterBoard hardware for a lot of home users. I mean, each user who has IPTV from his ISP. Here in Kiev, those are at least 30% of home users.
Donât know how to add feature request in Wiki so adding here
Winbox Plugin inside Winbox :- Is it possible to add a winbox features inside ROS like Telnet/Mac-telnet/SSH. Many times we need to access other routers inside ROS which are not reachable directly from PC. So it would be nice if we can open other ROS on GUI, inside from the RouterOSâŚ
I have so feature reqs ⌠I think useful for a lots of users
read out of serial port, in script, not in terminal only
1-wire bus support
script debug posibility (error report e.g. like PHP)
export/import winbox list to useful format like CSV, not address-book format only
quality and complete MIB file for SNMP read/write
posibility to make/read/change files directly in Winbox (like F3/F4 in midnight cmdr)
option to run script at scheduler not only upon specified time but also upon specified event like system power on, wireless running-check on/off, uplink signal under/over, ethernet on/off, âŚ
The most needed feature is read out from serial port and to run script upon even.
It is useful if you have lots of generic client CPEs with bridged interface and need to set those CPEs with fresh settings. usually they have some 192.168.xx addresses. And we have to make eoip tunnels to do access those cpes.
With web broser all you have to do is add another Ip on interface and then easily access CPEs.
EoUDP - Ethernet Over UDP, similar to EoIP, but carries data over UDP. One end is âserverâ, one end is âclientâ. Server port can be set to userâs choice, client port determined by OS/NAT. Has adjustable ping to maintain end-to-end connectivity. Simple and high performance ethernet tunneling for scenarios where one end cannot use Layer2 protocols (EoIP, IPIP, etc) for whatever reason.
DNSCrypt - new OpenDNS feature, we now have to use client for mac or windows, it installs proxy on local comp which makes encrypted dns requests for you, i think it would be easy to implement this in routeros beacuse it already has dns server, some of the modded router firmwares already has it
Create network interface over USB with Apple iPhone. Open source iPhone tethering driver for Linux has been available for some time now (ipheth) and I think it is now part of the kernelâŚ
Unmetered content for ppp server specially in pppoe server . a featue which a router allows not to count some addresses in radius accounting .
for example we want pppoe users donât pay for opening www.mikrotik.com
I do ALOT of Mangle and port forwarding both for Myself and client and always comment exactly what each port is for to save myself time/confusion later on.
It would make things alot easier (for me at least) if I could handle them via one page, as I do with my Address Lists.
