Router OS7 BGP Templates invalid.

CCR2116-12GS-4GS+
v7.1.5

Hi,

Can someone tell me if the BGP Template behaviour below is normal or not.

Disabling and enabling BGP templates puts them in an “Invalid” state.
The BGP connections drop when I disable the templates and re-establish when I enable the templates again but the state remains invalid.

The only way to get the templates in a normal state again is to create new ones.

It makes no difference if a template is being used or not, simply disabling it makes it invalid when enabled again.
I created a new one and did not attach it to any of the connections and the result was the same.

The same behaviour occurred on v7.1.4 and is still there after I upgraded to v7.1.5.

The GUI shows that the issue but the CLI does not.

Try hitting F5 to refresh the winbox window.

Hi,

Thanks but F5 does not help.
Exiting and logging back in or rebooting solves the issue, this is no way to operate though.

Regards,

just to point out that Winbox still has this issue.
it appears to be a visual issue on Winbox, not BGP itself.

how to replicate:

  1. open a device via winbox
  2. create a template with AS 123 through winbox
  3. disable that template through winbox
  4. re-enable that template through winbox

functionally the template behaves as enabled, but winbox keeps showing it as “invalid” in red.
requires closing and launching winbox again to fix the display.
