Sweet! That makes the 5009 a whole lot more interesting :)

Hey! Docker support! Could you elaborate on how this can be done or maybe post some example in the Wiki?
Thanks for the super work done.

Yup. No more complaints about shittly featureset of built-in DNS server ... just run container with full-featured DNS server and you're ... hosed :wink:

Container documentation is coming soon. Basic steps to get you started with experimentation:
1. Get Docker image as tar archive and copy to router (currently there is no 'pull' command in RouterOS, so containers should be exported from a working Docker environment). Also note that container's architecture should match with the router's.
-----------------------------------------------------

  $ docker pull docker/example-container
  $ docker save docker/example-container > my-container.tar

2. Add veth interface for the container
---------------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /interface/veth/add name=veth1 address=172.17.0.2/16 gateway=172.17.0.1


3. Create bridge for containers and add veth to it
--------------------------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /interface/bridge/add name=docker
  [admin@MikroTik] > /ip/address/add address=172.17.0.1/16 interface=docker
  [admin@MikroTik] > /interface/bridge/port add bridge=docker interface=veth1


4. Setup NAT for outgoing traffic
---------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /ip/firewall/nat/add chain=srcnat action=masquerade src-address=172.17.0.0/16


5. Create environment variables for container if needed
-------------------------------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/envs/add list=foo name=SECRET value=12345678
  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/envs/add list=foo name=FOO value=bar


6. Define mounts if needed
--------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/mounts/add name=etc src=disk1/etc dst=/etc
  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/mounts/add name=opt src=disk1/opt dst=/opt

If ``src`` directory does not exist on first time use then it will be populated
with whatever container have in ``dst`` location.


7. Create container from image tar
----------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/add file=my-container.tar interface=veth1 envlist=foo root-dir=disk1/foo mounts=etc,opt

Use ``logging=yes`` to see container output in log with tags
``container,debug,info``.


8. Make sure container has been added and status is stopped
-----------------------------------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > container/print

9. Redirect port 8080 traffic to container
------------------------------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /ip/firewall/nat/add chain=dstnat action=dst-nat to-addresses=172.17.0.2 to-ports=80 protocol=tcp dst-port=8080


10. Start container
-------------------

  [admin@MikroTik] > /container/start 0

This is super cool. My new RB5009 arrives tomorrow. Any chance to get hardware encryption of ZeroTire VPN on 5009?

Is the Docker support an optional package? I can't imagine many people wanting this, and it introduces massive security implications especially for all those hacked routers.

Since privilege escalation is pretty much a given, can we also allow root SSH access to RouterOS directly now? Running a single binary is greatly preferred to running an entire container.

Just like ZeroTier - Container is a seperate package

In winbox, attempting to add (clicking the +) or edit (double click the interface) a vpls interface closes winbox immediately.

CLI works fine.

winbox 64 3.29, tested on both a ccr2004 and a ccr1009

But atleast the vpls tunnel establishes!

Depends on the definition of greatly preferred.

So I disagree. You can have your binary in a scratch image if you want absolutely nothing in the image but your binary (if it's statically linked). Using Docker has the advantage that the running container have no access to the host if you don't give any. I prefer that level of isolation to not compromise the router if the running container gets compromised (unless there's an escalation bug in Docker itself).

I will run dnscrypt-proxy for sure in the future on it..

It's separate package, so it's FULLY OPTIONAL. Also this package is very small (~60kb), but then you need space for docker data.
Also currently it's not easy to use for users that doesn't know how docker works, but that can change if there is library of pre-made TAR files for some of the most wanted features so it's easy to use (UDPXY etc..).

This feature would basically make OpenWRT obsolete

Unable to upgrade RB3011 from 7.1RC2

Thought it might have been the Zerotier Package installed so removed it, rebooted and tried to upgrade again.

Unfortunately it doesn't upgrade. Boots back into 7.1RC2

Edit - /system/check-installation fails with the following:
damaged system package: bad image

Great news about LDPv6 - being able to run single stack IPv6 networks with IPv4 as a service is the way networks are headed and this helps a lot!

Torch still does not see IPv6 traffic that is there.

IPv6 NAT is in winbox now, but action netmap is still missing.

It would be great if you could get these new features added to WinBox instead of simply just CLI (PIMSM !).

Also would be great if you could put the ability of setting commonly used commands to appear by themselves on the
sidebar instead of having to drill down from the sidebar menus . 😎

I think Mikrotik has significant problems with development "scope creep". They need to focus on releasing a stable version of 7.1 without introducing new features to troubleshoot. Just get 7.1 working with routing protocols, firewalls, NAT, IPSec VPN, PPPoE, traffic shaping, etc. The core functionality that service providers or businesses might need. Now that ZeroTier is added suddenly making ZeroTier stable is a requirement for releasing 7.1. Postpone adding ZeroTier, Docker, and similar until a 7.2 release. A release candidate is not the place to be adding features.

CHR rc2 -> rc3

could not upgrade
config is erased
could not import rc2 export into rc3
binary backup, same ...

i am out of game dear Mikrtotik

this is obvious that even simple things which are reported here are untested
it is RC -> release candidate, and no, it it far far from that status

from my point of view, Mikrotik have no man power of testing
it is much simpler to put v7 out in air and let the users have feeling of community driven ROS

but it is not, OpenWRT is community driven, ROS is not !
it is paid, licensed, etc

oh yes, i see replies, MKT is doing this for us, for free, we need to be happy
it is really that way?

1000,2000,10000 beta user who test everything, it is free? no, energy,devices,man hours ...
it is ROS 7 free? no, you should recycle your old router and buy new which are capable of running V7
you want CHR? it is free ? no

from this point of view, only MKT have benefit from this "lets give them V7 to test it for us" approach
xxxxx user who spend they time, testing even trivial things, making ideas,etc and who get $$$ ?
not the users

so ... bye,bye until v7 LTS
and happy testing

I can't test anything now till the backups are fixed in the beta. I am held prison in my own router. ;-)

Assume the problem is not solved, unless specific mentioned in the release notes.

Hey, I got an Audience loaded with RC3 and WifiWave2. Wave2 package is here for about half a year. However, it seems to be very rough still.
WifiWave2 doesn't seem to support clients in "station bridge" mode. I.e. proprietary extensions seem to be not in place for this driver yet - there's no "bridge mode" setting in WinBox.Also, what about WMM extensions? Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere in WifiWave2 driver as well. Lastly, connection details are unavailable under Wireless registration list. Entries are there but they are not clickable. All in all it's still far from having feature parity. One gets MU-MIMO but still loses quite a few other things.

And I agree to what was pointed above for RC3 in general - Winbox crashes when trying to add Vlan interface.

Model: RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD
RouterOS Version: 7.1rc3

After running 7.1rc3 for 10 minutes, if I restart the router it loses it's configuration. I have opened a support ticket SUP-59875.

This bug has been present since 7.1beta4 (this is when I switched from stable to the development channel).

I would like to invoke @msatter for our obligatory PPPoE / SFP+ MTU > 1500 on RB4011 test :P I assume it's still broken unless it's covered under " *) other minor fixes and improvements;"
Would test myself but I just started my workday and can't mess up my Internet right now :D

Re: v7.1rc3 [development] is released!

It doesn't seem right to be running docker images on a router. It seems like this is getting away from what I would consider a professional router and more so a home type router. All of these additions are just adding more things that could cause security issues or stability issues. Why aren't these add-on packages? Will there be RouterOS 7.x without all of these additional addons? If not, I may look elsewhere for future router deployments or upgrades to current sites.

Regards,

Eric

In case someone still doesn't understand the problem. I won't bother with downgrading to 6.x for some nice copy/paste comparison, so you'll just need to trust me on the fact, that this will work perfectly on 6.x - but you (mikrotik) yourself confirmed, that you've repeated the problem on your side, and you've fixed this in one of 6.49 betas so are you not fixing this on purpose in ROS7 or what gives?

Thank for letting it known, I can skip this version of v7. Let's hope the wait won't be that long.

The problem different. Under v6 you could restart the SFP and it would allow an higher MTU.

Now it appears you can't increase the MTU higer than 1500 and so the PPPoE has to git in that MTU by using a lower MTU than 1500.

If you set a higher MTU is that displayed in v7? And if so try it with restarting the SFP and if it now allows higher packet dizes.

IPv6 NAT is in winbox now, but action netmap is still missing.
Omg, did they choose stateful IPv6 NAT?
Why aren't these add-on packages?
They are.

I think Mikrotik has significant problems with development "scope creep". They need to focus on releasing a stable version of 7.1 without introducing new features to troubleshoot. Just get 7.1 working with routing protocols, firewalls, NAT, IPSec VPN, PPPoE, traffic shaping, etc. The core functionality that service providers or businesses might need. Now that ZeroTier is added suddenly making ZeroTier stable is a requirement for releasing 7.1. Postpone adding ZeroTier, Docker, and similar until a 7.2 release. A release candidate is not the place to be adding features.
It nice all those outboard motors however I agree that the priority should be just have a working v7. Till now every version of v7 was not usable for me and even caused huge problems and causing stress.

A fallback to v6 was also blocked due to that backup being broken and you are thinking is all worth.

I'm fully aware of this, and I have scripts running on RB4011s that workaround this bug on each reboot. I even reported it here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=163157 and to support. I probably might've had something to do with this finally getting fixed in 6.49 beta, but who cares about the credit -- I just want this bug GONE.

Does the restart script work for you on v7.

No. v7 is broken beyond any repair. It works only on v6.

The only actions they have right now are masquerade, dst-nat, and redirect. Those are useful but what most people want to be able to Network Prefix Translation, which means using netmap, since the main NPT support in Linux does not support connection tracking, and netmap does basically the same thing but does support connection tracking.

VPLS is not working - the tunnel comes up, but attempting to pass any traffic across causes a crash.

Model: RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD
RouterOS Version: 7.1rc3

After running 7.1rc3 for 10 minutes, if I restart the router it loses it's configuration. I have opened a support ticket SUP-59875.

This bug has been present since 7.1beta4 (this is when I switched from stable to the development channel).
i have a similar problem i am losing configuration after reboot

Hey MikroTik, how to use the cake-autorate-ingress flag of cake? cake qdisc defaults to egress according to linux docs. No way to tell it, that it is ingress instead. So if you set cake-bandwidth to 50mbit and enable autoingress: it works for some minutes to finally reduce to 1mbit approx. I assume it is due to the missing possibility to set ingress/egress. Cake wont autorate on egress and finally autorates something very low.

RouterOS version 7.1rc3 has been released in public "development" channel!
dhcpv6-client is not working over PPPoE on RB5009.
Can you please have a look at this: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=178350&p=878495#p878495 ?

Hey, I got an Audience loaded with RC3 and WifiWave2. Wave2 package is here for about half a year. However, it seems to be very rough still.
WifiWave2 doesn't seem to support clients in "station bridge" mode. I.e. proprietary extensions seem to be not in place for this driver yet - there's no "bridge mode" setting in WinBox.Also, what about WMM extensions? Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere in WifiWave2 driver as well. Lastly, connection details are unavailable under Wireless registration list. Entries are there but they are not clickable. All in all it's still far from having feature parity. One gets MU-MIMO but still loses quite a few other things.

And I agree to what was pointed above for RC3 in general - Winbox crashes when trying to add Vlan interface.
WifiWave2 seems very limited without bridging. I'd love to have it running on my Audiences as the connection between them is quite poor with the standard drivers even with a clear 160Mhz channel and being in the same room. I regret buying 3 of them.
Unless there is another way to make it work?

Docker is nice, but wifi that operates at more than 15% of PHY rates would be great.

Any progress on mpls L3/ VRF routing?

thx
Looking forward on this as well, RC3 still missing the ability to set the routing-distinguisher on VRF, need this for routing import export in MP-BGP

The latest release that has this capability is beta6, none of the RC’s have this capability

Please bring back the capability to set, import and export route-distinguisher

Can I also suggest a better wiki/kb explanation on using/applying cake for wireless-default and as the default queues? We really needed cake here, so I applied it with the supposedly most stable beta-release I could find that has cake support, but it's a total black box regarding config under the winbox queues dialog now. For now I just got somewhere with trial and error;
Which queue types do I switch to the cake kind, and do I really need to enter/create a new Simple queue, or do the defaults work best? In my testing, I had to drop the Simple queue with cake I created between LAN - WAN, and for the metal 52ac between wifi and ethernet port, since it merely caused needless delays for packets to get through and probably a hot bunch of routers and access points.

I was trying to add a bridge to my CHR (running on vmware) and once I set auto-mac=no (with a unique MAC address) then ARP would stop working. Setting auto-mac=yes instantly reverted back to normal operation. A reboot did not resolve the issue. I have a hap ac2 running the same version with auto-mac=no with no issues, so it seems to be a CHR issue.

Or it could be issue with how virtualization platform of your choice deals with network interfaces ... some don't allow guest OS to play with MAC addresses ...

OVPN Server and PPPoE Scan are no longer visible in the Winbox PPP menu (using Winbox 3.29 in WINE on Ubuntu, I haven't tried 3.28).
I have 2x Chateau LTE12 and fighting with site to site OpenVPN for few days, yesterday i was happy because after RC1 and RC2, whole reset, OVPN was starting to work (ping between routers but still not ping from LAN PC's to other PC's in other LAN behinde VPN. Even LED's for signal strenght are working by default...
Then today popup new RC3, so i updated... and no OVPN there xD, no button on PPP. When use PLUS sign and click OVPN server Bindings winbox 3.29 closes itself...

Please fix this fast and provide some tutorial for OpenVPN on this router with v7.1 because i dont know if i am doing something wrong or just this router and his FW...

I have freezed money because i bought 2x LTE services and 2x this routers to complete infrastructure change in some company... :(

Edit:
I just checked new Winbox 3.30 and nod closes itself anymore but ofc webfig and winbox still no OVPN button/server...

On WebFig – Log - view there is missing possibility to choose log target and formatting of topic bar is broken. Wondering also why there is 3 empty columns which just waste the space.

on v7.1c3:

hAP ac2 - none of the beta6, rc1-rc3 versions of netinstall can be used. (Windows).
I had to use netinstall 6.48.4 in order to flash v7.1rc3 on this hAP ac2.
I watched the traffic using wireshark, tftp transfer went fine but the device just didn't show up in netinstall, same behaviour on all v7 netinstall versions tried.
Known bug?

Netinstall version has to be <= currently installed firmware version. I think the versioning of the netinstall package is misleading in this regard, since I would expect it to be the same as the RouterOS version I want to flash.

Well I've upgraded to 7.1rc3 and updated the routerboard/firmware too.
Still no go with 7.1rc3 netinstall.
What you say doesn't seem to be the case here.

Also on hAP ac2, by default this is set:
system/routerboard/settings/print 
             cpu-frequency: auto
Which under load causes this:
/system/resource/print
            cpu-frequency: 896MHz
Can't this lead to overheating and crashes? Since the default CPU frequency is 716MHz?
And nobody saw this as a problem? again..?... (since it was also the default behaviour when it was introduced in RouterOS v6 but was limited to default frequency later).

Can't this lead to overheating and crashes? Since the default CPU frequency is 716MHz?

I guess this is the effect of using modern linux kernel, which supports CPU frequency scaling. Intel has same technology, named Turbo Boost, which allows CPU clock to rise beyond nominal frequency. It is then throttled down in case CPU temperature approaches predefined limits. The nominal frequency is the one which allows CPU to operate safely for prolonged periods of time.

I guess we'll see how MT devices behave in long term ... perhaps you could perform some tests? Run something CPU intensive (e.g. bandwidth test) for prolonged time, observe CPU frequency (sadly hAP ac2 doesn't have any health sensors) and try to correlate that to bandwidth observed (with CPU throttling throughput should drop according to CPU frequency decrease).

BTW, it's possible to manually set CPU frequency on hAP ac2 to 896MHz in ROS 6.X (at least in 6.48.4). Since this setting is static, I guess even running at this frequency for prolonged time should not exactly kill the device in short time. 6.48.4 also allows to set cpu-frequency=auto and with unloaded router actual CPU frequency drops to 488MHz (the lowest possible value available for manual setting).

Automatic CPU frequency stepping was introduced in 6.48 too. But I remember it got limited to 716MHz, I don't have any devices with 6.48.x to test again, I'm still on 6.46.7 on most of them :)
What's new in 6.48 (2020-Dec-22 11:20):
*) arm - added support for automatic CPU frequency stepping for IPQ4018/IPQ4019 devices;

Apparently I've reported this on 7.1beta2 too:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=165248&p=815503#p815503
Let's not kill the hardware prematurely, shall we?

Do anyone else have issues with MTU > 1500 on hAPac2 or RB4011, I mean, like just having a bigger l2mtu than 1592 make the device reboot randomly ( this happens on my hAPac2, did not tried the rc3 on the RB4011, because I need MTU 1600 on the vlan used for PPPoE).

I'm aware of the issue regarding the MTU after the reboot, but, in this case not having MTU 1600 at all is a deal breaker...

@jookraw are you sure your devices are rebooting because of the l2mtu? My hapac2 has a relatively simple config and is also rebooting every few hours.
Just checked the l2mtu settings on my device and most of them have 1594 / 1598 set. Will lower them to 1592, and see if the random reboots stop.

Edit: hapac2 didn't reboot in 24h. Seems you're right, and an l2mtu >1592 causes random reboots on this type of device. I hope the devs are aware of this problem and are working on a fix.

No LEDs after rc3, not even able to toggle them from Winbox.

I got very strange and destructive bug. I have moved my configuration from v6 to 7rc3 string by string. And it's works, but after some time my router goes to drop all configuration by itself. Has anyone else encountered such a problem? I suspect this error is occurring on schedule. At least the time when the error occurred is the same as sheduled task. That task contents just one string "/system script run tasix"
Here is content of the "tasix" script
{
/tool fetch url="http://tasix.sarkor.uz/full" dst-path=net/tasix.list
:log info "Download Complete"
;delay 4;
;local netlist "tasix";
:local content [/file get [/file find name=net/tasix.list] contents] ;
:local contentLen [:len $content];
:local test;
:local lineEnd 0;
:local line "";
:local lastEnd 0;

:while ($lineEnd < $contentLen) do={
	:set lineEnd [:find $content "\n" $lastEnd];
	:if ([:len $lineEnd] = 0) do={
		:set lineEnd $contentLen;
	}
	:set line [:pick $content $lastEnd $lineEnd];
	:set lastEnd ($lineEnd + 1);
	:if ([:len $line] > 7) do={
		:set test  [/ip firewall address-list find address=$line list=$netlist ] ;
		#:log info $test;
                                :if ($test ="") do={
                                     /ip firewall address-list add list=$netlist address=$line;
                                     :log info "New network $line added to $netlist list";
                                }
	}
} 
}
I tried to use netinstall and configure again, but this bug repeats exactly the same.

There is no routing-table parameter, there is vrf parameter and it accepts only vrf tables, not policy routing tables.

If you create that in Winbox and then do an export, you get this:
/system scheduler add name=test2 on-event="/system script;\r\
    \n/ip route;\r\
    \n" policy=ftp,reboot,read,write,policy,test,password,sniff,sensitive,romon start-date=sep/11/2021 start-time=11:42:24
which is weird and doesn't import from the CLI.

Interesting too that export still uses spaces rather than '/' as the delimiter in the command.
One might have expected it would say "/system/scheduler/add ...".

as many others, with reboot:
config is erased
can not import rc2 export into rc3
can not restore binary backup
same behaviour on hAP ac2 and hEX S.

so have to start from scratch to eventually loose everything with next reboot... THIS IS DEFINITELLY NOT RELEASE CANDIDATE.

How much free space on the devices that lose config on reboot?
Somewhere they said if the device suffers from low space config could be erased on reboot because of that.
On my hAP ac2 I have:
free-hdd-space: 2164.0KiB
And have not experienced a config reset on reboot, yet.

Home in Belgium: HEX running 7rc2
Vacation place in France: SXT LTE (RBSXTR) - upgraded couple of days ago from 6.48.4 to 7rc3
SSTP tunnel between Hex and SXT to allow limited access from home (the idea is to move to Wireguard since it seems to be easier and speedier, hence the reason for the upgrade to 7rc3).

Could be me and my poor CLI-skills but on SXT I seem not to be able anymore to retrieve info from LTE1.
Always throws an error at the "info" part.
I can not be 100% sure but I seem to recall it worked prior on 6.48.4.

[------@MTSXTLte] > /interface lte info lte1 once
bad command name info (line 1 column 16)
[------@MTSXTLte] >

Trying to update LTE-firmware from V027 to V028 consistently results in an error (but that may be the poor reception in that area, hence my attempt to get a view on the signal parameters).

Re: v7.1rc3 [development] is released!

Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:11 pm

Hello,

Does anyone has experience with CRS125-24G-1S-2HnD and RouterOS 7.x ?
Do I lose something (in terms of functionnalities - I can rebuild the config if it cannot be imported from backup) if I upgrade from 6.48.4 to 7.1rc3 ?
Would it be faster / slower ?
Could it run out of storage space ?

Thank you in advance for your feedback !

Always nice to quote yourself...
Could be me and my poor CLI-skills but on SXT I seem not to be able anymore to retrieve info from LTE1.
Always throws an error at the "info" part.
I can not be 100% sure but I seem to recall it worked prior on 6.48.4.

[------@MTSXTLte] > /interface lte info lte1 once
bad command name info (line 1 column 16)
[------@MTSXTLte] >
From https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/RouterOS
User Info command
It is possible to send special "info" command to LTE interface with /interface lte info command. In RouterOS v7 this command is moved to /interface lte monitor menu.

And THAT one works :D

How much free space on the devices that lose config on reboot?
Somewhere they said if the device suffers from low space config could be erased on reboot because of that.
On my hAP ac2 I have:
free-hdd-space: 2164.0KiB
And have not experienced a config reset on reboot, yet.
2116 KiB on hAP ac2
4408 KiB on hEX S

If you're using CRS as a switch with configuration that allows full hardware offload, then you neither gain nor loose anything by upgrading. So far it was not shown that v7.1 exposes any new feature of switch chip which would potentially prompt for upgrade.

Well, you get numerous bugs (some may not bite you though).

@jookraw are you sure your devices are rebooting because of the l2mtu? My hapac2 has a relatively simple config and is also rebooting every few hours.
Just checked the l2mtu settings on my device and most of them have 1594 / 1598 set. Will lower them to 1592, and see if the random reboots stop.

Edit: hapac2 didn't reboot in 24h. Seems you're right, and an l2mtu >1592 causes random reboots on this type of device. I hope the devs are aware of this problem and are working on a fix.
That l2mtu tip was given to me by the Mikrotik support, but, I don't know if this also affects the RB4011, which is my main router.
today my hAPac2 crashed, after rebooting it lost all the config.

On the RB4011 I'll stick with rc2 for now

as many others, with reboot:
config is erased
can not import rc2 export into rc3
can not restore binary backup
same behaviour on hAP ac2 and hEX S.

so have to start from scratch to eventually loose everything with next reboot... THIS IS DEFINITELLY NOT RELEASE CANDIDATE.
update, manually restored configuration, and config survives reboots.
config gets erased whenever updating, restoring rc2 or importing rc2.

There is no routing-table parameter, there is vrf parameter and it accepts only vrf tables, not policy routing tables.
why not
Great question. I'm also annoyed by removal of "routing-table" argument from ping and traceroute. Why is this removed??

I would like to request a separate smaller wifiwave2-package for cAP ac, hAP ac2, ... i.e. all devices with IPQ4018/IPQ4019 chipsets which could be possible:

* As the new combined wifiwave2 package contains several firmware files, libraries and linux kernel modules for different chipsets the file npk package is quite big. With its 10MB it is not possible to install it on current devices with 16MB of ROM, e.g. cAP ac, hAP ac2, new wAP ac, ... If you split that package you could also install on devices with 16 MB of ROM:
Image

* Regarding the RAM requirement, I have to note that my cAP ac device shows over 80 MB of free RAM, even when 30+ clients are concurrently connected. So I assume that there is plenty of RAM left for using the new wireless firmware and drivers on IPQ4018/IPQ4019 devices which have 128 MB of RAM installed. Has MikroTik tried to simply modprobe the inbuild modules for IPQ4018/IPQ4019 at all? What went wrong? Which limitation did appear?

There's something weird with the marked area in my screenshot - long number is most probably in bytes, as the label, but the GiB in the end is wrong.
This is captured on Winbox 3.30, on an Audience running Wifi Wave2 7.1 rc3.

@anuser judging by the sizes your screenshot shows, 4019 would just fit in a flash of a Cheateau. I have have 2100kb free space. Not much left then.

Prolly RAM limitation, ath10k requires 256MB RAM for two radios for proper functionality.

OpenWrt barely runs on these units with a patch to reduce ath10k-ct RAM consumption but it's not usable for anything else than basic router/AP functionality.

In future, will be a version of wave2 which fits in cAP ac etc?

With 16Mb flash it didn't fit, even the new product cAP XL ac has only 16MB and 128MB of ram? Is not mean to have wave2 package?

Also, on website is written that cAP ac is IPQ-4018 based and has 128MB of RAM, but i've logged onto my AP and it says its IPQ-4019 based and size of memory is 256MB? Winbox shows wrong values?

I have tools to desoldier and swap chips to have in ex. 32MB of flash, but does board recognize it?

You are one of the lucky. When hAP AC2 (and looks like cAP too) was lauched, Mikrotik had problems with supply. So, the first (or firsts?) batch used the IPQ-4019 instead, and came with 256MB of RAM. The official spec is 4018 and 128MB of RAM, but some people got lucky. :D

It's the same ipq4018, just more RAM.
ipq4018 can't be replaced with ipq4019, requires a board redesign.

Due to the lack of WiFi 6 products from Mikrotik, I bought a cheap Belkin RT3200 and flashed it with OpenWrt.

It's a big upgrade from my Mikrotik hAP ac2, now I have proper WiFi and better coverage at home (higher spatial diversity due to 4x4 MU-MIMO).

I haven't performed iperf3 benchmarks yet but my Galaxy S10e shows 1gbps link speed within the same room as the router, OpenWrt also allows to use up to 160mhz bandwidth but I don't have 160mhz compatible clients to test.

a cheap Belkin RT3200 and flashed it with OpenWrt.
is not the competitor of the upcoming MikroTik cAP ax which will use IPQ60xx chipset. Current low cost competitors with the same chipset family nowadays would be:

- Engenius EWS357AP
- Grandstream GWN7660

Both can be purchased for < 100$

MikroTik doesn't use the opensource Ath10k driver but the OEM driver from the chipset vendors I assume.

Hello,
I'm running the rc3 on 2011UiAS-2HnD and when I use the webfig to configure BGP templates or connections, I always get error „Invalid value in AS“ no matter what I fill in the AS field. Tested on several web browsers (Firefox 78.10.0esr (64-bit), Chromium Version 90.0.4430.93 (Developer Build) built on Debian 10.9, running on Debian 10.9 (64-bit))

I do not use WinBox, and when I try to configure it from the CLI, everything goes fine.

Can someone confirm this behavior?

Thank you.

Interesting, I've unpacked another cAP and this time it has 128MB RAM, also has capacitors from diffrent manufacturer.
That cAP with 256MB i've bought shortly after release so it looks like true.
Later I will unscrew board from enclosure and see if its IPQ-4018 or IPQ 4019-based.

It is still release candidate, so don't use it on important or production device.
So many times...
Do not use backup, use export for configuration. Of course, if you have certificates in ex. for OVPN you have to export and store those files too( I mean on computer, not same device because if something go wrong netinstall will format flash).
I've upgraded sereval test devices from 6.48.4 to 7.1rc2 and rc3 and all configuration was been converted by crossfig

Thing is, simple export/import is broken in 7.1rc3,
"expected end of line error" when line-break inside double-quote, example :
/user group
set full policy="local,telnet,ssh,ftp,reboot,read,write,policy,test,winbox,pas\

Moreover, bridge filter rules -seem- randomly broken again from rc3.
Didn't test extensively as connectivity has to be restored.
Will try again with rc4.

Lost access to a CHR after reboot. Turned out that the CHR had lost all config including users so I needed to login with admin and blank password.
So losing config is still an issue. I will see if I can reproduce the problem again but this happens after it had been running for a few days.

Yeah this is major bug in rc3 half of my scripts stoped working due "expected end of line error" had to remove spaces where ever i could and remove "" as temp fix..

Automated tests on real hardware would be great on their side. Like a pool of routers that automatically gets wiped, reconfigured and tested automatically remotely. That would catch so many regressions.

Took me a couple of times to realize what was happening but it seems sometimes it looses PART of the config after a power off/on cycle.
This time it was DNS settings and default route to 0.0.0.0/0 (rather trivial...but also very easy to detect).

Restored from backup from 2 days ago and ok again.
But this happened now 3 times since saturday on this device. Only now I see what's happening.

Hello! I want ask about ospf filters in RouterOS version 7. It this correct topic?
What happened with Routing -> Filters?

In new version rules doesn't work!
And settings look like this
/routing filter rule
add chain=ospf-out disabled=yes rule="if (dst in 212.142.79.128/25 && dst-len > 32) {\
    \n  reject;\
    \n}"
Image

How I can use this?

Looks like the reset button configured as mode button does not work. My mAP 2nD has:
/system routerboard reset-button set enabled=yes on-event="/ system script run mode-button;"
But pressing the button brings:
 21:59:24 wireless,info wl-intern: WPS physical button pushed
Anybody can confirm?

And I just downgraded to get LED functions back ... ;)

Upgraded again to 7.1rc3.
Button works.
[---@mAP2nD] /system/routerboard/reset-button> print
    enabled: yes
  hold-time: 0s..1m
   on-event: ToggleWGPeer
[---@mAP2nD] /system/routerboard/reset-button>

1   name="ToggleWGPeer"  
     source=
       /interface wireguard peer disable 0
       :delay 5
       /interface wireguard peer enable 0
       log info "WG Peer toggled"

 23:16:52 script,info WG Peer toggled
 23:17:00 system,info led trigger changed

Which brings me to something else I noticed.
I need to disable the peer and enable it again before WG interface kicks in action.
EDIT:
Give it some time and it comes through.

Can we please have the possibility to choose a specific prefix from an IPv6 pool? viewtopic.php?t=153437
Please.
It's really annoying to deal with this.

Any progress on mpls L3/ VRF routing?

thx
Looking forward on this as well, RC3 still missing the ability to set the routing-distinguisher on VRF, need this for routing import export in MP-BGP

The latest release that has this capability is beta6, none of the RC’s have this capability

Please bring back the capability to set, import and export route-distinguisher
+1

What is the current progress on MPLS L3 / BGP / VRF routing on v7.1?
In combination with native Hardware Offloading and IPv4 / IPv6 support this would be a bummer.

Maybe you are better off starting two different development threads.
One renewing all major existing network connectivity features using new kernel architecture and optimized code (example: /routing/bgp)
Another focusing on new features, like implementing Docker container support

You do not need RD and RTs when setting up vrf-lite, so import/export RT and RD are now part of the BGP VPN configuration.

Can someone help me fix my OSPF configuration below that works fine for v6 but doesnt work right in v7? I have a feeling it has something to do with the new filtering rules, but I cannot get it to work properly (so I downgraded to the v6 stable at the moment).

/routing filter add chain=ospf-in set-bgp-communities=65000:110 set-distance=205
/routing filter add action=jump chain=ospf-out jump-target=meshaddrs

/routing filter add action=accept chain=meshaddrs prefix=10.0.0.0/8 prefix-length=18-32
/routing filter add action=accept chain=meshaddrs prefix=0.0.0.0/0
/routing filter add action=discard chain=meshaddrs

/routing ospf instance

Later I will unscrew board from enclosure and see if its IPQ-4018 or IPQ 4019-based.
Even if ROS says IPQ4019 on board you should have an IPQ4018 according to the official specs, I have opened my hAP ac2 and it's an IPQ4018.

a cheap Belkin RT3200 and flashed it with OpenWrt.
is not the competitor of the upcoming MikroTik cAP ax which will use IPQ60xx chipset. Current low cost competitors with the same chipset family nowadays would be:

- Engenius EWS357AP
- Grandstream GWN7660

Both can be purchased for < 100$
Yep, I tested iperf3 with my Galaxy S10e (HE 80MHz) next to the Belkin and I got ~600mbps speeds not the most amazing results for WiFi 6 but it can handle SQM CAKE @ 100mbps and Adguard Home flawlessly.

Where exactly does ROS report exact SoC in the device? On my hAP ac2 the most specific item I can find is firmware-type: ipq4000L in /system routerboard ... and that's pretty vague. Cpu type in /system resource (cpu: ARMv7) is even more vague.

OK, my device is running 6.48.4, so perhaps 7.1rc is more verbose?

The irq info contains name which driver sets and doesn't bear any special meaning. It really depends on what driver servicing certain interrupt line sets. And I'd guess it's the very same driver loaded on both IPQ4018 and IPQ4019 SoCs and then driver is intelligent enough to initialize whatever hardware it finds (and that doesn't have to depend on SoC type).

It's same principle as output of /system resource pci print ... having the name there doesn't mean running ROS has driver for device (and lack of name doesn't mean there's no driver installed).

CCR2004 rebooted after 8 days of uptime. It's over.

I've contacted my bank to conduct a chargeback on my purchase. I'm not paying for shipping.

In the downloads area, I see that ROS v6.8.4 is available for the RB2004. I just bought this box because I saw this and hoped I could use it until a usable version of ROS v7.x comes out. Subsequently, I tried downgrading to stable and even NetInstall but the router notifies me that it will only work with ROS v7.0.x as a minimum.
WTF Mikrotik?
I'm thinking about returning mine as well till the get their S#@t together over in Latvia and quit advertising firmware that doesn't work !! 😤😤

You can't downgrade below factory-firmware (/sys routerboard print). There are 2 types of CCR2004, CCR2004-16G-2S+ and CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS.
CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS works with v6, the new CCR2004-16G-2S+ does not.

Bbbbut 7.1 is already in RC state. Ususally that means: "yeah, works well for 99% of users. may contain some edge-case issues."

No, this is not right and it's not 99%.
rc3 can remove your config after power loss...
rc20 maybe will be prepared to know as 7.1 but we know MikroTik and probably they put some like rc5-8 as "stable".
Many migration problems from 6x to 7.1 will be solved probably after 7.15 like it's was with 6.x

many stuff are not right and I agree with all people who return they beta devices. It's not for final sell.

I should have marked my comment as "sarcasm".

Of course this rc3 is far away from a stable state. What I wanted to say is: RC means release candidate in the world outside the mikrotik universe. For many and most other software in this state, it means 99% stable. Yeah, of course, in mikrotik world RC means something like "yeah, we are getting there....". Maybe it is something like a real beta now. As I started with 7.1beta2 or so - as a home-user with home-user-needs - I felt like a tester of some nightly builds.

But what irritates most: these RCs receives features like Docker support just in the RC phase. RC usually is feature freeze. But OK. This v7 is - judging from other topics and many comments - not even feature complete in many regards (routing protocols and so on).

And last but not least: mikrotik starts selling "real" devices with v7 only. It was another level, selling a consumer device like Chateau with v7 only.

This is exactly the same as with the big guys (Cisco, Juniper,...)
Hidden on some obscure page you can find info like "do not install version <X on device with serial number <Y" or something like that.
Mikrotik is no different as the others.

They should make a version of 6.48.4 that works with all CCR2004's till they can actually get 7.1x to work.
I have had "Zero" problems with 6.48.4. 😎

I have disabled the watchdog to prevent reboots, but the unit is still not usable.

But it seems that since the last reboot it is working including working traffic on all ethernet interfaces, but the rebooting is back as soon as i create a bridge and add ether6 to it when it has link. Adding ether7/8/9/10 to is is working fine, until i move my laptop from ether6 to ether7

Actually not. The download pages states that CCR2004 models are ARM64 architecture. They do not state that all CCR2004 models do run all RouterOS versions. Also the product page for CCR2004-16G-2S+ lists RouterOS (v7 only) in specitications.

I see you are disappointed but please don't pollute multiple threads, it will not help you further. Rather focus on the solution - what problems are you experiencing with 7.0.4, are they not solved in 7.1rc3? Can the distributor provide another model?

Really, give me a break. Since this is unique, it should be spelled out on the downloads page as well. 😤
If you think this is pollution, rather than informing then you are the one with the issues.
Not everyone (besides yourself apparently) reads all the threads. This my method of information. Do you not believe in that? Nevermind... 😵‍💫

Dude, if this is the case...Then that sort of information should be indicated in the downloads page... As it is:

It doesn't say anything...and it should.

Good news, I managed to install a working version of v7RC3 on my 4011. After some problems it worked till the Address-list went berserk. This is an old problem, of not obeying the TTL.

V6 obeys an external TTL in of 30 seconds and it counts from 30 to 27 and then it renews. In v7 the TTL displayed in cache as 0 and renews...renews...renews that fast that after a few minutes the Unbound server slows down to a crawl and is going to get the knit-work out and knits a nice pullover. After a few restarts I had enough pullovers piled up and reverted to 6.48.4. There I had with the same config the problem that IP address was not working and I had to connect trough MAC/RoMON.

After restoring the back for 6.48.4 all was right again

I really hope Mikrotik will add minimal TTL to the DNS client and that address-list will obey that minimale TTL...I am waiting already years for that.

I had the pleasure to see that going on for 20 minutes for one script before I could press enter twice.

Does HW accelerated IPSec suppose to work on 7.1rc3 / Intel CHR combo? When I upgraded from 6.48 I lost HW acceleration flag for aes-256-gcm tunnels that were offloaded before...

How did you have hardware offload on CHR? It is virtual - there is nothing to offload to. Probably the HW acceleration flag (if you had it) was a bug in the older version and was not true.

This statement is just incorrect. I'm afraid you are not quite familiar how virtualization and HW offload works...CHRs support HW offload for IPSec via Intel AES-NI, so as long as you're using the right ciphers and have proper instructions passed through to the VMs, it just works.

Here is the list of HW acceleration capabilities=: https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/IPsec , - x86 with AES/NI. AES-GCM mode is fully offloaded on AES-NI hardware not just on Mikrotik but on most systems.

When it's is working properly and HE flag is displayed, CPU usage is 5x lower, so super easy to reproduce.

It looks like a regression in 7.1.

Interesting - thanks for that explanation. I figured it would be the same thing as fastpath and hardware offload in bridging. I run CHR's but do not do IPsec on any of them. I never realized that the CHR could do hardware offloaded IPsec in a virtualized environment. It is something special for just IPsec then and not applicable to other offloading mechanisms?

Hardware accelerated bridging means that a switch chip forwards the frames directly, without the CPU even knowing about their existence. There are typically no switch chips on the hosts where CHRs are running, so the virtualization software has no API to hand over control of the switch chip to a VM.

Hardware accelerated IPsec means that the CPU can encrypt a chunk of data using a single instruction, with the help of a dedicated hardware block, rather than using a loop of more elementary instructions and the common registers, so it's not so complex to give the VMs access to this instruction.

Fasttracking is somewhere in the middle, as it consists in bypassing a lot of CPU processing by simplifying the path of the packet from the in-interface to the out-interface, so even on a CHR, it could speed up processing of some packets by mere exclusion of most firewall processing from that path. But for some reason it is not implemented and each packet takes the full path.

Thanks for the very precise explanation...

May I ask while you are at it : what is "fastpath" and what's the difference between fastpath and fasttrack ?

If you need another wording or if the manual refers to other terms you need an explanation for, create a separate topic in General, to keep this topic focused.
