System requirements for server package

RouterOS:
v6.34rc13 or newer

Hardware:
MikroTik CCR series hardware
RouterOS x86 installations
RouterOS CHR environment



Note: Use of dude server package is not supported on other hardware.

243

ok. so that means that i need to buy a x86 licence in order to use the new dude ?
I only have grooves, 750gl’s, omnitiks … i dont have any CHR or CCR or X86
can i use any licence from my other gear to install a x86 in a VM ?

244

If 1mbit/s will be enough for your dude probes, than you can use CHR to run new dude for free.

245

Changes in v6.34rc45 build:

Fixed issues:

  • Fixed server crash that some people where experiencing.
  • CHR host upgrade fixed.

@Chupaka

For now I put changes here. At some point they will be included in changelog.

@ste

For some reason dude related packages was not uploaded correctly. It should be corrected soon. If not I’ll put separate download link for them here.

250

Vacuum! I am happy of that. Thank you very much for it. I will test as soon as I manage to have running both clients of 4b3 and 6rc on one windows station simultaneously.

251

Regarding my complaints about Dude not creating links correctly, please disregard. The latest rc builds work fine. I haven’t test the others yet.

252

Any update on this? I can force them to reconnect to ROS in Dude, but they disconnect some time after again.

253

I used this link:
http://download2.mikrotik.com/routeros/6.34rc45/dude-6.34rc45.npk

After install, dude server took about 1/2 hour to start.

From all the 6.34rc releases, I noticed that dude has difficulties connecting to objects that have Secure Mode checked.

254

I can confirm that unselecting Secure Mode fixed the ROS connection issues for me for now.

255

can you post a link for the dude server for the x86
thanks

256

ROS link mastering type was fixed some builds ago.

257

258

Testing on a CCR1036 it lasts 10 minutes for dude to startup and load it’s data from an USB Stick.

259

How big is that dude db on usb flash? Have to get something similar and recheck.

260

Yeah, I mistook this issue for the Secure ROS connections issue. With Secure ROS checked, devices disconnect from Dude and don’t show links correctly. Turn off Secure and its fine.


Had an issue with settings not saving, only to realize the flash drive was full. Fixed.

Having lots of crashing issues now. Dude will crash and not start up until I get on the router and do a /dude pr and then it seems to start until next crash.
