Why, the device is a router, and I need it as a router. It is not a lab, I need it working as it is.
Also what is “basic config”? for me, basic is the what I need from it.
As I’m not alone on this, means that is not config.
I don’t think that is a misconfig, I migrated it from my RB4011, making the changes to match the interfaces on the RB5009. I’m suspecting a bug with OSPF, as it seems to happen after a OVPN client (that is connected via a crappy LTE) goes down or flaps, I’ve disabled OSPF and replaced the routes with static ones.
Now I need to wait to see if it will happen again or not.
My 5009 crashed every few days, it stopped only after I upgraded all other mikrotiks in the network to >= 7.1 - in my case I believe it was a bug in the capsman or discovery protocol that went away when all systems used 7.x
Now I am sure that the issue was related to OSPF and the OVPN client that is connected via LTE (an unstable one). after I replaced OSPF with static routes, the issue is gone and the router stayed up for ~25d, when I upgraded to 7.2 stable. did not tried OSPF again.
