*) wireless - improvements for nv2 and 802.11ac
*) sstp - make sstp work on i386 as well;
*) ippool - improve performance when acquiring address without preference;
*) partitions - copying partitions did not work on some boards;
*) bridge - added “Auto Isolate” stp enhancement (802.1q-2011, 13.25.6)
*) ipsec - when peer config is changed kill only relevant SAs;
*) vpls - do not abort BGP connection when receiving invalid 12 byte
nexthop encoding;
*) dns-update - fix zone update;
*) dhcpv4 server - support multiple radius address lists;
*) console - added unary operator ‘any’ that evaluates to true if argument
is not null or nothing value;
*) CCR - improved performance;
*) firewall - packet defragmenting will only happen with connection tracking enabled;
*) firewall - optimized option matching order with-in a rule;
*) firewall - rules that require CONNTRACK to work will now have Invalid flag
when CONNTRACK is disabled;
*) firewall - rules that require use-ip-firewall to work will now have invalid flag
when use-ip-firewall is disabled;
*) firewall - rules that have interface with “Slave” flag specified as in-/out-interface
will now have Invalid flag;
*) firewall - rules that have interface without “Slave” flag specified as in-/out-bridge-port
will now have Invalid flag;
*) firewall - rules with Invalid flags will now be auto-commented to explain why;
*) l2tp - force l2tp to not use MPPE encryption if IPsec is used;
*) sstp - force sstp to not use MPPE encryption (it already has TLS one);
*) sstp - make it work for x86 systems
*) winbox - added dual PSU stats in health menu
*) ipv6 - Gre6 can now correctly fragment large packets
*) simple queue performance optimisation/improvement for multi-core RouterOS devices (especially CCR)
Does the “and” means the improvements are for NV2 working on a ‘ac’ radio? Or does it mean improvements are for nv2 systems (a/b/c/g/n/ac) AND also for 802.11ac working radio link?
In other words, do these improvements have effect on nv2 working on ‘n’ protocol?
I’m dying to hear results or comments from the field of users. My CCR is the only device not running 6.18 yet (its on 6.13) and I dare not to change it before I am confident it works… its my gateway to my connection to the internet and can’t afford to loose its functionality… so please anyone let me know how it works on the CCR.
[Ticket#2014082766000509] - SXT ac in station mode rebooted on nstream protocol.
nv2 is ok, bud half oh bandwitch
802.11 also ok, bandwitch cca 75Mbit on 20 MHz channel
i did give it some time, was looking at what backups i had and even i tested a filter rule. the firewall rules were 100% gone and not applied - the router was open to the world until I reset it again.
