Ping bug

Hello,

I think I have discovered a bug in ping from terminal.
If I ping and address (on the other end of IPSEC tunnel) from Ping tool (with the right interface) it works but if I use terminal (or from script) it does not work.
Can Anyone confirm this befor I send it to Mikrotik Support..

It is I problem because my IPSEC tunnel occasionaly falls and I have to flush Installed SA. I have created a script but it always says ping timeout even though the tunnel is OK…

I am using RoS 4.11

[Ticket#2010090666000376] RE: v4.11 ping problem

Hello.

Just noticed some problem with ping: seems like if one uses ‘interface=some-ppp-iface’ parameter in Terminal, it’s not working:

[admin@MikroTik] > /ping 10.100.1.1 interface=ipip-datacenter
10.100.1.1 ping timeout
10.100.1.1 ping timeout
10.100.1.1 ping timeout
10.100.1.1 ping timeout
5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
[admin@MikroTik] >

But at the same time, ping from WinBox works fine with the same parameters (target IP and interface selected).

and the answer:

Hello,

Thank you for the report. We will look into this issue.
