v7.1rc2 [development] is released!

[infabo]

Almost every SUPEE I reported is at least at the state “we can reproduce in labs. gonna fix - but can’t give ETA right now. thanks”. So IMHO filing a support ticket is worth it. Commenting detailled issues in beta-release threads is kind of wasted time. I hardly doubt that any “loose” failure-description here is picked up by MT-staff at all. Maybe the issues that arise very often in the thread - maybe - but thats it.

Honestly, you just need to provide as much infos as possible so they can reproduce. “it is broken” may not help at all.

Anyone noticed that L2TP clients can no longer login after upgrade from rc1 to rc2?
I do receive a message “l2tp,info INFO: first L2TP UDP packet received from 3911:3f65:551f:861e:54a6:d222:cd76:6a5” many times.
Reverting back to rc1 makes L2TP login possible right away, upgrading to rc2 again makes them fail.

I had the same problem, so I rollback to rc1.

Can you both please send your supout.rif files to support@mikrotik.com?

Had the same issue upgrading from rc1 → rc2
Seemed to destroy prior config (on boot?)

When trying to reset to defaults, /system/default-configuration/print shows no script under script. Only caps-mode script present.

Going to try a clean netinstall to see if i get same results

Edit: device is a RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD

I think I may have solved my reboot-clears-config bug on my RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD, but it is still early days!!.

What I ended up doing is going to back the latest v6 stable, applying a stripped back version of my config (minus wg, etc.), rebooting the router to make sure it came back ok. Then I upgraded it to 7.1rc2 from within RouterOS (I couldn’t get NetInstall to flash it while running v6). Once it was updated, I then re-applied the RouterOS 7 config (wg, etc.).

So far it’s been fine and I have rebooted it several times, I’ll be rebooting it often to make sure it is fixed. I don’t want to find out my config is gone when the power cut happens

One thing I have noticed that isn’t fixed, routing-marks in the exported config is still be exported as ‘*4000’ instead of their actual text value.

I’ve just rebooted and my configuration was wiped. I’m going back to the stable v6 channel. I do have a support ticket open (SUP-58017) for this issues, granted I raised it against 7.1RC1.

Installed 7.1rc1 on a mAP 2nD, that crashed every now and then. Upgraded to 7.1rc2, still crashing.
I did not change any queue settings.

One crash it wiped the configuration, luckily I could load the backup I did just minutes before without issues. No idea though what could have caused the wipe.

What’s new in 7.1rc1 (2021-Aug-19 13:06):
!) added support for IPv6 NAT (CLI only);

Currently action=netmap is not supported, which you’d expect for dual wan scenarios (to translate ULA prefix to ISP specific global prefix)

E.g. this config is not supported:

/ipv6 firewall nat
add chain=srcnat action=netmap out-interface=WAN1 to-address=2001:db8:0:1::/64
add chain=srcnat action=netmap out-interface=WAN2 to-address=2001:db8:0:2::/64

The PPPoE through a SFP still drops back to a MTU of 1480…it was fixed in Beta 6.49 so please patch ROS 7.x also.

Just chiming in again that I can second this. Thanks msatter for testing I always look for your reports.

Same here

IPv6 no longer appears to work over PPPoE after updating to v7.. Works fine on v6. though.

RB2011 still locked in 7.1beta6 (no upgrade path)

hi,

on v7.1rc2 restoring configuration from backup is not working if the backup file is password protected, same issue with restoring config files from cloud backup

RB2011 still locked in 7.1beta6 (no upgrade path)

In such situations you should do a /export of the full configuration and maybe also a backup, install the newer version, and restore the configuration from a local
winbox connected to the MAC address. (so you can wipe it entirely before importing the export)

Remember that importing an export does not restore users and their passwords, and certificates. So when you have them, your safer bet may be via the backup.

[loloski]

Thank you very much for your reports, they help us a lot to proceed further.
Currently our very big concern is random configuration lost on some occasions. It would be great anybody experience configuration lost provide us with information,

• routerboard model used;
• configuration used on the device
  You can send information to support@mikrotik.com

done please see ticket number below

I found where the problem is caused from. Please see here: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/7-1rc2-l2tp-broken-on-certain-bridge-configuration/151530/1

IPv6 no longer appears to work over PPPoE after updating to v7.. Works fine on v6. though.

Must set the use IPv6 flag in the PPP Profile, also if you enabled default route in the PPPoE login, do not set it in dhcpv6-client.
IPv6 actually works but I also had many problems after migration from v6.

[nescafe2002]

I’m having issues with 6to4 interface. IPv4 packets are somehow assembled (length 2922 bytes) and then rejected with ICMPv6 Packet Too Big.
The tunnel throughput is starting at 900 Mbit and then dropping quickly to no more than 20 Mbps.

It is dependent on the uplink (SFP) and fast path setting (when using switched/bridged port).
Device RB4011, 7.1beta5 to 7.1rc2. Supouts and packet captures sent to support SUP-44956 (updated March, May, August, September).
Currently this ticket is unanswered.

A possible workaround is to create a (dummy) bridge or bonding interface for the wan port (sfp).
After this the throughput is somewhere between 150 Mbps and 400 Mbps.

Can anyone confirm/reproduce this behavior?

Any way to get fastpath working on Wireguard tunnels so we can get more performance out of it?
Fastpath works for PPPoE for example, but not for Wireguard?
I know Wireguard uses built-in kernel module, isn’t that fastpath?

[mada3k]

I wouldn’t count on wireguard, openvpn or zerotier use any Fastpath. They are all CPU based.

LEDs seem to be broken since v7.1rc1 on the Audience.
There is no way to configure the LEDs, it seems like they are not added to the boards configuration anymore.

Same here. Blue led appears during boot, but green led during normal operation is not lit.

IPv6 towards PPPoE really doesn’t work. I have rised ticket and sent supout.rif file, but it is not solved yet.

Darn, I just was told by support that the backups where broken and are still broken in 6.49beta. This a BIG problem to me and I have to wait for the next version to be able to make a backup that I can use to restore. Till then it is manual importing stuff from a RSC export file if needed.
