Weird routing loop in logs but there isn't one.

I was also experiencing this on all the 3011’s we have. But it seems to be solved in 6.35.2. So far my test router has been running with the bridge interface in place for a day now with no issues

Hi,

I am about to purchase an RB3011 (so don’t have my hands on one yet.)
I have worked with MikroTik for a long time.
I have taken the time to plan my configuration (and do research) while waiting for the hardware to arrive.
The configuration I will use is simplistically as follows (there are other elements but I don’t believe that they are pertinent to this discussion);

Config:

ether 1: master port
ether 2: slave to 1
ether 3: slave to 1
ether 4: slave to 1
ether 5: slave to 1

ether 6: master port
ether 7 : slave to 6
ether 8 : slave to 6
ether 9 : slave to 6
ether 10: slave to 6

sfp 1: Will be setup as management interface

I was always going to purchase the S-RJ01 SFP interface for my setup, but I did notice a comment on the block diagram
*Switch chip2 (Eth6 - Eth10) has 2Gb/s aggregated lane to CPU until SFP module is inserted in the SFP1

I’m wondering if the insertion (and use) of the SFP module will ‘normalise’ the operations of switch chip2, as the switch on eth6 - eth10 appears to be were the problems are coming from.

This is just a thought to throw out there to you unhappy souls until I get my hands on the hardware.

Rgds,
Nic
