CSS610-8G-2S+IN - SWOS 2.12rc2 Upgrade missing

Fri Oct 02, 2020 5:24 pm

My new CSS610-8G-2S+IN has just arrived. I am wondering that the device comes along with a release candidate firmware. It can not be updated automatically, also it is not listed in download section. Any idea how to proceed ?

Regards,
Andreas

Go to the Mikrotic downloads page: https://mikrotik.com/download
Download the appropriate file and do a manual upgrade (near the bottom of the Upgrade tab).

Thank you for the hint. I am quite familiar with that download page using it for my other devices and again the firmware for the CSS610 is not available there. As Mikrotik mentioned, each model has it's own firmware. But I appreciate getting a direct link for that file. At the moment it's simply anoying and disappointing for a switch without supporting VLAN! I am thinking about to return this device.

I had not really paid attention to the model of switch that you are using. Apparently that is a very new product and the software download page has not been updated with the new model. As this is a user forum, you might be better off sending a message to support@mikrotik.com That will get directly to people who can fix the web page.

Was just going to say the same thing.

Just got a handful of CSS610-1Gi-7R-2S+ in, and it's on 2.12rc2

Can't get VLAN management working correctly.

Anyone get any response from Mikrotik about this yet?

I'm wondering if the firmware really should have been labeled like 2.13rc2?

I got a message from support:

Thank you for contacting MikroTik Support.
Currently 2.12 version is not released for CSS610 and 2.12rc2 is the newest available.

Please use vlan mode "strict", there is no vlan mode "enabled" for this switch , documentation is corrected as well.

Frankly said, I am confused about this, even connecting different switch models with or without this option. Should be consistent within SWOS on all platforms.

SWOS in my experience, is different on every hardware platform. The crs3xx/css3xx series are the closest to "normal" switch config options/interface. I prefer routeros on the switches since many times swos has limitations and the releases are far and few between. I know that this specific model is swos only though.

Same here, currently testing netPower Lite 7R (which should be the same switch in different form factor):
- The version of the fw is 2.12rc2
- The snmp is v1 only, and is read-only, for now I cannot make any configuration from the snmp;
- When I power-off the unit, and power it on, I'm still logged in the web, which is strange ...

For at least minimum so this unit can be placed in production, we must be able to:
1) Read everything by snmp;
2) Enable/disable port by some sort of system (SNMP/API/CLI and etc.)
3) Read port states by SNMP (up/down, speed ...)
4) Change port description by SNMP
5) Change vlan by SNMP
6) Read Reverse PoE and PoE info by snmp.

If this is done, than this unit can be used in production environment. No network manager (ISP or corp) should use any unit without option to manage it somehow or to be managed fast and versalite by their staff.
The netPower Lite 7R is in outdoor case and is GPEN advertised, so it is targeted at ISPs, not to home users. No ISP is going to use it without proper management. I hope MT, are going to release new firmware and features soon.

Why bother reading the thread two messages up from your own...

CSS610 2.12 or 2.13, WHEN???

These units are unusable until we get the solid version 2.12 or 2.13.

Is the SWOS team working on this?

this is not too strange. I learned that mikrotik is not using a typical session key, but relies on HTTP authentication. So the browser sends your login credentials silently on every page. This is not too efficient, but the GUI of a switch does not need to be. On the other hand this pretty comfortable and on mikrotik's side easy to implement. Also it offers a means to use the gui as a kind of API as well

Same situation here.
VLAN is unusable and the example setup in the wiki is not reproducible in this model.
I know this is a new product but it is supposed to be shipped with a well tested firmware.
