I’m new here. I’m having some issues with RouterOS on a Hyper-V VM on a Dell 2950. Clean install, no interfaces are showing. NICs on the server are factory. I would assume they’d be supported. Am I missing something here?
Thanks in advance.
they may had intel, broadcom, nexten interfaces. not sure bout broadcom, but netxen may be not supported by ROS.
for Hyper-V you have to assign interfaces to the guest manually. Guests do not see interfaces from the host system.
yup. contrary to vmware, vbox, parallels and eliks - default config for - not include “stub”/default inverface in H-V.
“bare metal” broadcom NetExtreme II was supported http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Supported_Hardware for awhile by both ROS5 and ROS6.
This was already the configuration before I posted. I have a linux VM(Ubuntu) and another linux VM(CentOS) running without issues on here as well.
So I guess I’m not sure what you are saying… Change ethernet driver?
that would hurt to try, but as stated above - NetExtreme II already supported by ROS, so perhaps not source of issues(unless they use different implementation of). try more “generic” NIC from list for start, yep
interface you assing your virtual switch to does not matter to the CHR. It will never see the interface. It will see synthetic interface provided by the Hyper-V.
You can check this by listing ‘/system resources pci print’
Yes I know this, as I have three other linux VM’s running now. Two Ubuntu 16.04 and one Ubuntu 14.04. I have assigned a NIC to it in the Hyper-V settings. Once the NIC has been added to the VM in Hyper-V, I would think RouterOS would be able to see it, right?
Here’s my interface print so you can see none listed
Here is the Hyper-V settings
I’m puzzled as to why RouterOS isn’t seeing the interface.
what you see in /system resource pci print detail?
do you see BCM device there?
No BCM device, here’s a screenshot.
So I figured it out… In installing the OS, i downloaded the wrong file. I downloaded the regular RouterOS, not the CHR. After installing RouterOS CHR, I have an interface!
Thanks for trying to help!
