Upgrade after a long time

Sun Jan 20, 2019 6:31 pm

Hello,
I didn't upgrade my ccr1009-7g-1c-pc since a very long time ...

The RouterOs version is 6.40.5
The latest is 6.43.8

As I read in the wiki that some parts have been rewritten then I don't dare upgrade.
First of all I shall backup the configuration and, in case of problems, I could reinstall it. But I am not reassured !

Which advices could you give me ? Please don't give me references in the wiki.
Thank you in advance,

The big difference between 6.40 and 6.43 is in the way how ethernet ports are handled. If you post here part of your running config (/interface export ... I don't think there are sensitive settings in this section) we can express our opinions about probability for things to break during upgrade...

I don't see any reason why upgrade should break things for you. Config is just the way it is supposed to be in most recent ROS versions.
