No auto mac adress while doing the tutorial HWMP

Hello,

I’m currently following the example to set up a mesh network :
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8978441

I have two Mikrotik grooveA 52ac routers.
I did the tutorial, copying the command, my issue is that, when I do:
/interface mesh print

even if auto-mac=yes, my mac address is 00:00:00:00:00:00. This is happening in both the antenna, what could be the issue ?

Thank you for your attention

Friendly bump!

I’m sorry, HWMP+ feels like it’s been abandoned/forgotten. I wish it hasn’t… It’d be great to have something better-in-all-the-ways than the STP family to make interconnecting switches, well, better.

SPB and TRILL are definitely things with other vendors… they just make sense… HWMP+ could have easily been Mikrotik’s easy answer to that kind of capability but I’ve never been able to get it to work. I’ve had support tickets in and pretty much every post I’ve seen related to it has gone without any responses.
