Hi,

The RC2 that we receive by support email, is it the same RC2 as the one you publish? or should we re-update?

Regards,

No it is not the same as you can see by the build time.

Ok, thank you so much!!

Regards,

Thanks for your efforts, will give it a try, particularly for testing cake stability. Hoping GRE tunnel throughput might also be a bit faster but I understand that might be a while before that is hopefully looked into and sorted. Issue seems to be that it’s only using a single thread, unlike my former Edgerouter which used multithreading for the GRE tunnel and maxed the CPU cores, have already recently reported this bug/issue though.

remote logging with BSD Syslog flag enabled produces unreadable logs in remote syslog server (full of #000#000#000#000).

Still present i rc2

Thanks for adding auto-complete for routing filters in CLI!

It’s much more intuitive now :slight_smile:

VPLS causes an immediate crash. I have to disable it on the far side to get the router out of a reboot loop.

Kernel failure 5mins after setting cake to my simple queue..I sent you supout (SUP-58379)

How do we show BGP’s advertised routes?

Manual mentions /routing/bgp/advertisements but no such command exists.

> /routing/bgp/advertisements
bad command name advertisements (line 1 column 14)

Well done MT, hope soon we install stable version.

Haha, used “System/Packages/Check For Upgrade” to update from some unofficial support-provided 7.1.RC2 to official 7.1RC2. Now my device is a brick. Did not come up again. Needs netinstall I guess. Well played!

edit:
Could connect with Winbox in MAC-mode. Device has apparently reset itself WITHOUT default-config. Or at least in some weird state without IP-address and non-working WIFI (though enabled with default as far I can see). I am always wondering HOW that can be even happen.

Press update → device reset. Shake my head.

Works for me on RC2, tried several platforms arm,arm64,tile:

[admin@arm-bgp] /routing/bgp/advertisements> print 
 0 nlri=23.161.80.0 attrs=40010100500200060201000614704003040a9b65ba

Doesn’t work on my hEX (RB750Gr3).
I also cannot advertise any BGP routes.

I’ll give arm a try to see if it’s architecture related.

Easy! The config is corrupt and is cleared on reboot. It would probably have happend when you had only rebooted. It is still happening in some cases in v7.
When you want to be sure, reboot before trying to update. Then you know if it is caused by the previous version or by the updating.

Doesn’t show changelog in Winbox. Can this be fixed?

On smips, the same. With netinstall, no previous config.

Hi Mikrotik

i like to ask, is there any chance to solve issue/problem with “hidden” ipv6 address/route ?
here i mean, IPV6 → Settings → Accept router advertisements → YES

it is sooooo confusing, that there is no v6 address and no v6 route listed
so, when you are in hurry, and things are working very strange, it is time consuming to hunt down “why the hell this router could do v6, and other no” … then you realize that someone turned on SLAAC
and then start coursing, and wondering, how could it be? routing equipment without routing info …

so, any chance to UNhide these v6 info ?
( did i asked politely this time? )

Is this topic not posted among Announcements intentionally or by mistake?

Hi,

Can you share your settings? I have something similar and I don’t have that problem. I would like to try it, thank you!

Regards,
