Holy…. When is this coming to other CRS3xx switches? The CRS305 in particular? Please pretty please?

I hope … but won’t hold my breath. CRS317 is built around 98DX8216 SoC while most of the rest are built around 98DX32xx … not sure if 98DX32xx can do the same magic as 98DX82xx … CRS309 and CRS312 might support it soon (they both have 98DX82xx as well).

“ip route” context is still a CLI-only domain

For me it is possible to manage routes from winbox, however:

  • whenever I change something in a route table entry it disappears from view
  • when I go to another TAB on the window and back to the overview, the modified route again appears
  • when a status changes on a route, e.g. a route with ping check goes to available/not it is not updated on an open route overview.

It looks like there is some difficulty with the access from the dynamic contents of the route table from winbox.
(this was the same in earlier v7 betas that I tried!)

Updated HAP AC lite, great wireless performance. Hope for fast progress!

a ball plus : ) vrf-menu has joined ip-context in winbox

NAT Hardware Offloading !
Great news. When is this coming to the actual router products like CCR series or new router products ?

Same Question from my side!

Not going to happen. They don’t have the hardware for it, up to and including the CCR2004. Maybe, just maybe, the CCR2016 will be an ARM64/PresteraDX combo, but I wouldn’t count on it (would be great, though…).

The USB port of my CCR1036-8G-2S+ now works again :+1:

Great to Hear That :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

ROS v7.1beta1 still have trouble with IPv6 BGP as described here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=162424&p=800209 :frowning:

bgp keep alive not sent or broken to the second bgp session estabilished.
on both essions we check rpki.
On 7b8 the two session were working fine, now the second goes down each 180s for hold time expire on remote (ccr with 6.47.1).

Also when we clear the session the main routing rable is not able to clean, or it is not able to clean in a reasonable time.

Great news! Can’t wait to see RoS 7.X stable. Maybe 7.5? :smiley:

Let GPT3 write the rest of the code to reach 7.1 production, and the day after UltimateROS.

tried to install from packages menu to update but I get the following error:
missing routeros-smips-7.1beta1.npk
Unit is hap lite (for testing)
not sufficient space to download and move to files (manual mode)

Hi.
After upgrading RBD53G-5HacD2HnD-TC&EG12-EA to new v7.1 beta, router shut down many times, because for no apparent reason CPU nominal frequency automatically set to = auto.
When change it to normal frequency = 716, all start work correctly after several restarts. I had to flash netinstall, so that the router would come to life. But in winbox still trying upgrade to 6.47.1 version. LTE modem also work not correctly. wAP ac LTE6 kit working on the same project with the same sim card give more speed with only 2 bands.
After the firmware v7.1beta1 it shows all the time - internet limited access.

We use sim card Bite operator - Latvia.
Thank you,
Alex

Reboot loop on RBSXTR with LTE6 modem.
Reproducible, also tried netinstall.
Could not generate supout, did not find an autosupout.
Log told me: Device rebootet after kernel panic.
Uptime 33seconds, then the device rebooted.

Edit: I tried to overcome the boot loop by disabling the lte device (which was just a guess) , which did not work. It rebooted anyway and after reboot, the lte device was active again.
I upgraded an other device earlier (hap ap lite) which still works very good!

found a main routing table bgp related bug:

  • if you have a static invalid route about a prefix
  • then you learn the same prefix from a bgp peer
  • then the bgp session goes down
  • routeros don’t clear the bgp route learned, leaving it as invalid
