I want to configure an rb751u-2hnd from a .rsc file to simplify replication to several routers.
Unfortunately, I’ve unsuccessfully tried to create a simple default configuration. Here are the steps I used:
- Installed default configuration (by pressing reset switch)
- run “export compact file=A” (file attached)
- run “/system reset-configuration run-after-reset=A.rsc”
This bricks the router - no longer accessible over any interface. I’ve never got “winbox enter via mac” working (no mac addresses listed after pressing […], no matter how I connect to the router - cable to ether2 or wifi).
Running “/system reset-configuration” gives the same result - the router is inaccessible.
From reading the forum I gather that others had problems with run-after-reset, yet from some posts I conclude that some must have been successful in replacing the default configuration (e.g. being able to use ip addresses that differ from the default, 192.168.88.1).
Perhaps there is a different (simpler?) procedure to customize these routers with configuration files. All input is appreciated!
