how to disable / remove protected_routerboot ?

RouterOS General
1

hi there,

i am using CRS and the protected_routerboot working fine.

12:33:33 system,info verified protected_routerboot_v3_22_enable_6_27.dpk
12:33:36 system,info installed protected-router-6.27
12:33:36 system,info Protected RouterBOOT enabled

question, how to disable or remove this protected_routerboot ? cause the package does not shown on /system package.

thank you

Paul

The package deletes itself. It doesn’t install the feature, it just upgrades your RouterBOOT version. The feature is a part of RouterOS, it can’t be removed.

To disable it, go into the “system RouterBOARD settings” menu.

What about downgrade ros and install older routerboot and then update ros back? May it work so?

The .dpk package simply update the onboard BACKUP BIOS to 3.22.
Actually not exist any tool (except the .dpk package) to change onboard BACKUP BIOS.

You can only revert to older MAIN BIOS coping the desired old BIOS file “chipset”_3.2x.fwf
on the file directory and go to system routerboard to upgrade to oldest,
or obviously install older routeros, upgrade the MAIN BIOS with older version and re-install 6.27

how I can disable it in that menu?
it’s not possible to use command “protected-routerboot disabled”?
and how to set “reformat-hold-button” time?

just testing now…

/system routerboard settings

set protected-routerboot enabled
set reformat-hold-button=10s

or

set protected-routerboot disabled

my question is about seconds. you have to keep the reset EXACTLY the seconds you have set?
if for example i have set 120s, that mean <120s or >120s is not recoverable?
