MikroTik

Hi
Is there any plans on supporting Ipv6 on Dude?
We have been using Ipv6 for a while now, and would greatly improve Mikrotik Management if Ipv6 would be supported

It's in our TODO list for features that we want to add to The Dude. However at this point there is still no planned ETA for ipv6 support.

Ok, thank you for a swift reply regarding this matter.
I am very positive that it is on the TODO list

Only thing to do is begin patient i guess

Hi!
Any news about supporting Ipv6 on Dude?
thks

Any planned ETA for ipv6 support ?

When some low cost monitoring solution have IPv6 support since around 2011 and there is discussion if IPv6 should be enabled by default, Mikrotik does only have IPv4 support in 2017.

According to what i've seen recently Dude server is now only available as a package for Mikrotik hardware or CHR. This mean that Dude server is not anymore considered as a unsupported side application available only for Windows platform. But is an integrated component for newer Mikrotik hardware or virtual platforms. Because of that it will certainly receive more interest from users, and is now a real added value to Mikrotik hardware and virtual solutions.

Because IPv6 needs now to enter in the LANs to simplify administration, remove NAT 4 to 6 and reduce hardware, software and administration costs, it would be desirable to have tools now to facilitate and encourage IPv6 adoption in the LANs.

Hardware and software with IPv4 only support will now progressively disappear.

My management network for CPE devices is IPv6 only.
I want to use the dude to role out updates.

Any plans to put this on the roadmap?

Cheers,

Any updates on this?

YUP - IPv6 is much much much needed

I started configuring Dude to monitor my network. I got a few hundred hosts in Dude then discovered there is no IPv6 support in Dude. Well there went a weeks worth of learning, configuring and testing Dude right into the round-file next to my desk.

Hello from 2025, this forum post is from 2016.

Is 9 years not enough to add IPv6 support?

Okay, deleting the dude...
