Nstreme2 with Bridge Interface.... Bug discovered...

RouterOS General
1

Created a NStream2 link - get it to link up.

Create a bridge interface.

Add ether1 to the bridge on both units.

Add your nstream interface to the bridge.

Look at hosts under bridge.

It’ll pass at the MAC layer - transparently bridging between the two boxes.

Reboot the unit.

Now it does not work.

You have to go back into the bridge, under ports, delete the nstream and re-add it, then it works again.

Basically, from a power up boot, it doesn’t pass traffic thru the bridge.

I hope this is enough information — if not, let me know i’ll be more detailed.

Seeya,
Dave

Do you have any other interfaces in the bridge?

Do you try specify admin-mac-address on the bridge?

The only interfaces in the bridge are the nstream and ether1 interface.

Yes, I have the ether1 mac address as the bridge’s admin mac.

I think someone else may have posted about this, but never answered questions about his config – he was referring to it as “nstream2 does not auto start” or something close to that. His symptoms match what I am seeing.

BTW, this is RC5…

Yes, we have the same problem on our nstreme-dual bridge with RB333. We temporary fixed it with writing script which disable/enable bridge interface 10s after startup…

Hello,

I have the same problem with 2 RB333 in nstreme-dual, at the first setting they work but after a reboot nothing :frowning:

I writed a little script, as sad Mapik, i dont know is correct or not the script, but after that bridge disable/enable still not working.
Here is my script:

           delay 10;
           inteface bridge disable bridge1;
           inteface bridge enable bridge1;

In Sheduler:
Run script At: startup

I have upgraded the latest v3.0rc5 software. I hope the bug will be corrected as soon as possible, because I have some important links depending on it.

thanks

best regards,

We are using this and working fine for us…

/system scheduler 
add comment="" disabled=no interval=0s name="bridge-reinit" on-event=":delay 10
/interface bridge disable [find]
/interface bridge enable [find]
" start-time=startup
