v7.4 [stable] is released!

Ok perfect, can I see the real working frequency of the CPU?

Some of us have CRS328s with flapping SFP+s impacting connectivity for 6+ months, or are impacted by other major issues fixed in this release. Waiting for a stable release for container support indefinitely until all the container-related issues got resolved would have been silly. It’s not like the work on containers suddenly was deleted; it’ll be released in the future when it’s ready. I assume Mikrotik pushed this out in order to satisfy those with production-breaking problems/needs (and speaking for myself, I am quite relieved).

Very much concur and is obvious to anyone that has software development experience. Its good to see QA processes are alive and well!!

for winbox, would it be possible to show where a prefix terminates when hovering cursor on it in ip/firewall/address-list? very annoying not easily being able to know what something like 10.0.128.0/19 ends at, my workaround is adding the prefix in ip/address as disabled and hovering the cursor there since it works that way.

also in the topic of ip/firewall/address-list, since it is now heavily used for routing protocols like BGP, would it not make more sense to move it somewhere else? maybe a dedicated menu in ip/address-list and possibly incorporate ip/pool into it as well.
i’m sure others have already suggested this before, just giving it a +1.

ROS v7.4, running on Audience (requires auto setting as well) shows it when executing command /system/resource/print … I don’t recal seeing any value other than 448MHz though. That’s the lowest value available to set on my device, but cpu-load is sitting at 0% as well, that might explain it.
Things are pretty much the same on my hAP ac2 running v6.49.6 (488MHz is the lowest settable value and shown whenever I care to look at).

@emils, can you point out which fix either in this or previous version addressed the Ops concern, or do you like mystery in life LOL.

*) wireguard - fixed system stability when adding/removing WireGuard interface;

@emils: Can you provide details of what this actually addresses?

  • if the server IP is unavailable for any period of time and is accessed via DYNDNS (dynamic) ??

come over to testing, at least you know that you may have to netinstall.

For moving from 7.24c to this release 7.4 stable. Is there a recommended method/process ??

7.2rc?

Or you netinstall (suggested :wink: ) or install first 7.3.1
I do not know if the “fsck” added on 7.3.1 for the lost of data partition is also present on 7.4

No problems updating my hAP ac² from 7.3.1 to 7.4

Haha, close enough v 7.2rc4
Yes, want to avoid KoD :slight_smile: and going from a stable to stable is diff from rc to stable…

Wow, every day we check the stable release, in order to start a project via containers. All I had to do was check again …
Honestly, something has changed in your company and I don’t see it going in a really good direction … Or you get into too many products on the market and it seems that you are losing control … That’s how it seems to me.

A super black ball from me. Cius!

Anyone who can confirm if the problem with missing SFP module information is being addressed? I highly doubt but at the moment the test device isn’t available and I do not want to upgrade the used devices just to find out that this is still not resolved. I know that in RC it wasn’t but hope is a strong thing.

Successfully upgraded 2x CCR2116 from 7.3 and 7.2.3, and 2x RB5009 from 7.2.1. 2116’s running NAT, DHCP, etc. and all four running BGP (internal routes only) and OSPF. RB5009’s share the load of 1-2Gbps of production traffic 24/7.

Will be testing on three other 2116’s with larger tables later on this week/next week.

The stuff that was not included, most likely isnt considered “stable”

That these features are (still) not implemented is holding me back from deploying v7 as well.
Also, according to IPArchitects, there are some unresolved issues causing occasional memory leaks. As as our whole network depends on BGP, it’d be nice if these issues could be looked at.

Upgraded my RB5009 from 7.2.3 to 7.4 and looks like it’s bricked. Can’t even get it to show up in Netinstall.

To elaborate further, when power is supplied (using OEM adapter), Blue LED1 comes on. Ethernet port 2’s green LED comes on faintly, and there is no other activity.
Holding RESET button down when power is supplied results in no change in behavior.

  1. In Dude, packages are still listed as “system”
  2. Dude upgrade “needed packages are not available” message still appears.

So Dude still can’t update managed devices.
