Update to 7.14 renamed my VRF

RouterOS General
1

Hi there!
I mentioned this in another post but got no response so far.
Since its bugging me Id like to dedicate a seperate post to it. Ive upgraded one of my CCR2004 routers from 7.12 to 7.14 and after the Update one of my VRFs was renamed: an underscore got appended.
Previously it was named VRF_EXT now its called VRF_EXT_
I cant rename it back since i get the message that:
“failure: device with the same name already exists VRF_EXT”

/ip vrf print however only shows two vrfs and none of them is named VRF_EXT.

I tried to rename with this command:

/ip vrf set [/ip vrf find name=VRF_EXT_] name=VRF_EXT

And i tried to rename through the gui as well but same error.

How to fix this?

Hi, the following command should work:

/ip vrf set [ find where name=VRF_EXT_ ] name=VRF_EXT

thanks for your response!
unfortunately its the same result:
failure: device with the same name already exists VRF_EXT

Maybe because my Interface List for the VRF has the same name as the VRF itself?
let me try that…

yup!
thats it. facepalm
once i renamed the interface list i was able to change the name of the vrf back.
