Hi,
Does anyone know the following MikroTik v6 configurations equivalent in v7.0beta8:
/ip firewall mangle
add action=mark-routing chain=prerouting dst-address-list=!IR
new-routing-mark=VPN passthrough=yes src-address=30.30.0.0/16
/ip route
add distance=1 gateway=“pptp-out” routing-mark=VPN
In that article it says “Instead of routing rules, you could use mangle to mark packets with routing-mark, the same way as it was in ROSv6.”
Can you add some example for that in the docs?
Is the routing-mark the same as a table name in v8? i.e. when you use a routing-mark, do you first add the new table using the new commands shown in the docs?
Or do you need to match the routing-mark in a routing rule and map it to a lookup action in some table?

In that example replace this:
/routing rule add dst-address=8.8.8.8 action=lookup-only-in-table table=myTable
with this (the same rule as you would use in ROSv6):
/ip firewall mangle add chain=prerouting dst-address=8.8.8.8 action=mark-routing new-routing-mark=myTable
As stated in the manual, table MUST be always added before trying to use it
Ok so that is not the same as in v6… best to just include the route marking syntax in the manual as well.
It has never been completely clear to me if route marking in mangle rules is completely the same as matching in ip rules and I often
have rules like this in my ip route rule list (amongst matches with IP src-address):
add routing-mark=Eurofiber table=Eurofiber
just to be sure…
