Hi All, I’d like to force IP Cloud’s updates out a particular interface. I figure I will need to mark this traffic and use a routing mark to route it appropriately.
I assume the Mikrotik will just use the highest priority route for IP Cloud, rather than random?
Does anyone know Mikrotiks IP range and port(s) in use for the IP cloud service?
Thanks
Looks like you don’t know where your router is sending data. Don’t you think it is a security risk not to know this?
I’m sending data to the company that manufactures my router hardware and develops the software, I hope I can trust them with my IP address. After all, in theory they could access all my WAN / LAN traffic via a back door…
Make logging rule in output chain and you will see where the router sends packets to. Then select by firewall rules the allowed traffic and drop the rest like in forward or input chain.
I don’t want to drop the traffic, I want to mark it and route it out a certain interface.
Anyway, a packet capture shows the IP as 81.198.87.240 and port as UDP 15252.
What I want to know is, does Mikrotik use an IP range for the IP Cloud Service?
Looks like I’ve solved it from info from this website http://www.phy2vir.com/mikrotik-cloud-a-dynamic-dns-name-and-ntp-service/
It connects to cloud.mikrotik.com on UDP port 15252.
This currently resolves as 81.198.87.240 and 91.188.51.139
Thanks
Hi Marrold,
Thanks for providing workaround for IPCloud source address definition, but if you are interested in direct address/interface selection, please post reply (vote for) in thread:
