What a long list of fixes. A nice x-mas present :slight_smile:

Still very slow export on some routes with limited CPU

Nearly same “simple” configuration on two test 5Hz routers.

SXT 5HPnD r2 600mHz Export: 4seconds

SXT 5HPnD 400mHz Export: First run: around 4-5 min. Second run after 6min and only 30% of config show, I get this “Console has crashed; please log in again.”

Thanks,
RB5009 ok and can finnaly see temp.

4

Can you post the output of this command, Just to see what info a RB50090 gives out:

{
:put [/system/routerboard/get model]
:foreach id in=[/system health find] do={
	:local health "$[/system health get $id]"
	:put "$health"
}
}

RB5009UG+S+
.id=*11;name=cpu-temperature;type=C;value=35

Jotne:
But the voltage still missing.
Edit:
Thanks for help with info command.

socks5 now ok in 7.2rc1 is, but 7.1.1 still problem

8

Unfortunately the issue with RB5009 DHCPv6-PD over pppoe on tagged ethernet link is not fixed

CCR1009 running 7.2rc1

MY CPU has gone nuts comparatively speaking … as shown in the below graphic …
cpu72rc1.GIF
running 7.1.1 Stable my CPU normally is stable around 1% … the above is put WAY out of wack ???


Reverted back to 7.1.1 and CPU is back to normal operation … WoW :smiley:

Does 7.2 fix torch isn’t showing ipv6 traffic?

11

The Wireguard IPv6 peer bug is also still present on this version.

12

Change log of 7.1.1 doesn’t mention anything about fixing SOCKS5. So what exactly is your point?

13

That’s cool and all but ROS7 is a non-starter for me without BFD support. Will we ever see BFD implemented is ROS7?

14

This version broke communication between a crs318 and a crs317 with a SFP+ 10Gbase-T adapters (same adapter type on both ends). It works fine with 7.1 and 7.1.1.

15

Version 7.5 givertake a few decimal places. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

16

Updated (Home)LAB RB5009 - All working fine, but the box is extremely basic (but secure) configured with just PPPoE to ISP
At least it did not crash :wink:

I wonder when ZeroTier would be integrated into the Winbox GUI ? At present its all CLI, interface not visible on Winbox etc.

Re: RouterOS version 7.2rc1
Can somebody shed some light on the following new features ?
*) winbox - added local/remote CPU load parameters for “Bandwidth Test”;
*) winbox - added support for “Tool/Speedtest” menu;

19

Upgrade via ZeroTier connection, my Telit 960s now show RSRQ & RSRP - with even CA info, for both AT&T & Verizon in US – great work! Shows signal from these modems now in your iPhone app too.

Didn’t get to check the new /tool/speed-test UI in winbox - clearly had some positioning to do with LTE - but now possible. So super useful, thanks.

The /tool/speed-test now has a UI in winbox in the “Tools” menu:
