Anti-Virus with MT

Fri Oct 19, 2007 7:49 pm

Hi guys,

I was wondering if there are any anti-virus that can be installed in Mikrotik server? in fact do we need to? I mean could viruses infect Mikrotik RouterOS?

thanks to all,
Atheer

no, they will only affect themselves and other network users, but not the router.
