v7.1.2 is released!

Then it’s not sorted then is it? If it was it would be in the changelog!

Can anyone elaborate on

*) vlan - fixed improper VLAN priority addition for routed packets;

What exactly was fixed?

Was anyone able to get 7.1 working on a ppc routerboard? I tried 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 on RB333 and the boot failed with “kernel out of range”. Even the netinstall is broken, it gets stuck on “waiting for installation server”. Is 64MB of RAM not enough for the new version?

RB3011 only used as Capman controller, v7.1.1 no problem. Upgrade to 7.1.2 resulted in endless boot loop.

Netinstall next…

I sacrificed one RB333 and it’s not good. After upgrade from 6.49.2 it fails to boot with same “kernel out of range” as yours. It can be fixed by upgrading firmware as described in v7.1beta4 on RB600A thread (RB333 is mpc8323; I used upgrade over serial port, since the board was already bricked), and then it boots. Problem is, after that, all ethernet ports are dead, autonegotiation is successful, it’s connected at 100M full duplex, I see rx traffic, but zero tx, router doesn’t send anything, no matter what I do. And no, you don’t need to worry about memory, 27MB free, no problem there. But those ethernets ruin the fun.

dhcp-server or dhcp-relay on vlan interface still not working on X86 with intel i350 nic since v.7 first release

Hm … the update re-ordered my firewall rules on an RB1100AHx4. Quite a mess.

v7 has a weird bug, if you setup a hotspot on wired interface and put external AP like TP-LINK or any other brand the client device will work for a few minutes then it stop to work properly, can’t reproduce this issue on v6. The affected device is RB4011 this issue has been ignored by support honestly

@MT this is a common scenario please include this in your smoke test before releasing code in the wild

i dont know if its the same, but i got it fixed after removing any firewall rules with action=mark-connection

I haven’t touch the firewall rule created by default by hotspot, the device configuration is pretty basic straight from factory reset and turned on hotspot

Have it working on RB1100AH, but that has a lot of memory. most models i check its using almost 50MB of memory so depending on your config may be not enough, cant say for sure, but PPC seems ok.

Have it running fine so far on;
Routers;
HapAC
RB450G
RB1100AH
RB3011UiAS - (System bricked only on firmware update, package update was fine, so reset and restored backup - all good but would be inconvenient in the wild)
RB4011iGS+ - from 6.44.7 all good except SFP (Cisco GLC-T) had to be hard coded to 1Gbps (Auto showed connected at 10M but no connectivity)
CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS
X86 Hyper-V (works fine, with exception of no Dude server still)
Switches;
CRS328-24P-4S+
CRS226-24G-2S+
CRS112-8P-4S
CRS309-1G-8S+

Still waiting to test;
Routers;
CCR1072-1G-8S+ (will be testing full BGP tables as well)
Switches;
CRS326-24S+2Q+
CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+

more to test later pending results above..

Can’t find this update on my RB5009. Have checked for updates in /system packages

Quick Set > Check for updates shows installed version 7.0.5 and latest version 6.49.2

Upgrade to 6.49.2 and you should see 7.1.2

6.49.2 won't run on an RB5009

You'll need to remove any extra packages that may be installed and then upload the npk from the Mikrotik Downloads page and reboot.

One can hope!! Wouldnt be the first time things are omitted from the changelog :stuck_out_tongue:

I just upgraded from 7.1.1 and some of my firewall rules were reordered again (it has happened before on v7). Additionally some filter and all NAT rules were deleted, so the Internet stopped working on LAN. Really buggy behavior. My device is x86.

Upgraded rb2011 / rb5011 from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2

Lost on both devices part from my config (firewall rules for example), restored config backup and worked again.
DHCP on rb5011 worked only after 2 reboots.

CHR no longer boots after 7.1.2 update in Hetzner cloud. Rolled back to 7.1.1 snapshot which works as well as it used to.

Have you removed some disk driver along the way? And why on earth between minor versions and without a notice?

A bit worried about 3011 reports here. Anyone who have updated a 3011 including the firmware as well without issues?

just some reminder before using v7…

  1. always use netinstall, dont use upgrade from v6
  2. reconfigure from scratch or import .rsc file, dont use restore .backup file
