ROS 5.26 on RB1100AHx2 / Hardware Encryption ?

RouterOS General

Hi All, I have a RB1100AHx2 and I think I was reading somewhere that the Hardware Acceleration for Encryption does not work in v5.26 can someone confirm this?

Then if I have to upgrade to v6, is there a recommended version, seems v6.10 wont let me use AES256, so maybe v6.9 ? I have been testing 6.x releases in a few places but have staying in 5.26 on my production units so far… Edit: I think AES128 may work for what I need anyways… so I could just use the latest.. should that prove to be stable.

I thought I remembered seeing a doc on confirming that the hardware acceleration was being used. Maybe its just ‘on’ with the later releases? I can’t seem to remember where I saw it, or I might have been staring at a screen too long today…

I have been looking at this doc for a while: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/IPsec#Hardware_encryption

Thanks!

Wait 1-2 day, the 6.11 fix all and is Ready.
Do not install beta version of 6.11.

Ah ha, I didn’t realize I had posted in the Beta section, whoops! I was aiming for the General section… Thank you for replying! I will certainly wait for a release build…
