Good day
We were slowly upgrading our network from ROSV6 to ROSV7 without problems. A short while ago we used an outage at our upstream provider to mass upgrade most of the remaining network. We upgraded to ROSV7.9 to keep all devices at the same version as previously upgraded routers.
On a couple of PowerBoxPro’s we needed to uninstall some unneeded packages first to make space, but not all.
After the upgrade we noticed that on some devices ppp stopped working. The symptoms were as follows:
In Winbox, ppp is blank, no profiles or servers etc.
Attempt to add any ppp profile or interface in winbox have no effect.
In terminal, attempt to export ppp causes terminal to stop responding.
General export also freezes terminal.
Attempt to add any ppp profile etc from terminal also causes terminal to stop responding.[/code]
The first device we noticed this on was a PowerBoxPro.
After upgrading to newest version by system → package → upgrade the problem was still present.
After downgrading to V6.48.6 the problem was gone and correct config still present.
We further noticed the problem on another PowerBoxPro, a RB4354G and 2 RB433’s.
There are other PowerBoxPro’s, RB435G’s and a RB433 that were successfully upgraded with no problems.
The remaining RB435G’s and RB433 on our network will be replaced soon, but we still have Power Box Pro’s that we are not planning to replace yet.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
Our ppp setup is as follows:
/ppp profile
add change-tcp-mss=yes local-address=10.0.x.x name=profile1
/interface pppoe-server server
add authentication=pap,chap default-profile=profile1 disabled=no interface=\
Sector max-mru=1480 max-mtu=1480 one-session-per-host=yes
/ppp aaa
set interim-update=5m use-radius=yes
Thank you.
