Ping from Mikrotik in Dude 3b6

RouterOS The Dude
1

I’ve just updated my Dude server from v2.2 to v3b6 and am trying out some of the new features. I’m liking what I’m seeing, but one thing that I used semi frequently that I can’t find is the ability to send pings from Mikrotiks on my map. Previously, if I had any Mikrotik on my network and set to a ‘Mikrotik Device’ I could select it in the ‘From’ drop-down list on the Ping window. This now only shows ‘Local’, ‘Server’, and any Dude agents. Am I missing something that I need to set? Do I need to set the Mikrotiks as Agents somehow (seemed to only be able to make Dude servers as agents)?

Thanks,

I’d like a answer on this question as well.

any Mikrotik device can be a Dude agent, just install the Dude package on there, then add that device as an “agent” to the dude interface, and then you can ping (or do anything else) from that agent.

Agent is basically a Dude server, but when you use it as an Agent, you don’t connect to it via the graphical interface, but use it only to poll devices.
