TO DO List new version SW-OS please

Tue Oct 10, 2017 5:45 pm

Hi Mikrotik Support,
I have 2 request to next version of Switch OS please :

On system menu, can you take when i put IP address, give MASK and GATEWAY ?
I can't monitor the switch OS if my monitoring Workstation is another network. it's a small joke and no professionnal i think...

second request : ADD MTU JUMBO FRAME please !!! if i use 10G sfp+ to connect on ISCSI VMware, it's better for me to use MTU 9000.
Thanks you again

You should be able to connect to your switch from anywhere you want, unless you use asymmetric routing in the network your switch is directly connected to. Mask and gateway are suddenly not required. The following quote explains how it works (taken from here, but can also be found here and here):
Note: SwOS uses a simple algorithm to ensure TCP/IP communication - it just replies to the same IP and MAC address packet came from. This way there is no need for Default Gateway on the device itself.
