Ive lost control of LEDs from scripting. I can control them via terminal.

/system leds set leds=user-led type=off 3
/system leds set leds=user-led type=on 3

These work fine from terminal but do not work in a script.

The issue I noted in #298 is still occurring in rc27. Is this the best place to raise possible RC bugs, or should I email support?

Bug in 6.43rc23:
  1. Upgrade from previous version to 6.43rc23 when you have /ip ipsec peer proposal with hash-algorithm=sha512
  2. Open this proposal in Winbox. You will see that in Winbox it have checked md5 and sha1, but in the export it have sha512
  3. Set hash algorithm to sha512 through Winbox, now autosup file starts generating
Is this bug fixed in 6.43rc27?

I am still experiencing a problem with the WAP60 on this firmware.

Both client & AP running latest release.

Client connects when ap set to bridge. However when AP set to ap-bridge same client will not connect. No matter which frequency is selected (even the new 64800)

*) wireless - improved Nv2 reliability on ARM devices;

There are no improvements in this regard, the nv2 protocol in arm devices remains unstable. It continues to have packet losses. At the moment nstreme is the best option.

I have upgrade my SXT LTE (band 3,7), from ROS 6.42.3 to 6.43RC27.
But after upgrading... I can't get access to my SXT LTE.
Wrong username or password message.
Device is on tower so, difficult to reset device.
What is the problem?

Try to recover with MAC telnet if possible. I had the same issue and I was lucky.

I wonder if there will ever be a *nixbox as well. Would anyone know if there is any mac telnet client for *nix systems that works with ROS?

But that does not yet work with RouterOS 6.43rc. I opened an issue already.
Is there an detail available about mac telnet protocol?

*) w60g - improved link stability;
*) w60g - improved maximum link distance;
Can anyone already quantify this in some way?

I'd like to know, because two NLoS pathways I tried were ever so slightly too far / too faint as of rc21/23. Maybe after some improvements they could actually work.

*) w60g - added distance measurement (CLI only);
*) w60g - improved link stability;
*) w60g - improved maximum link distance;
1) distance mesurement in CLI is here since rc19. Has it been improved somehow? Or what is the difference?
3) what is the new maximum link distance for WAP60 and LHG60?

2) I have a 10 meters long test link between 2 LHG60s (YES, I know it too little for LHG60 and can be clearly solved by wireless wire, but unfortunately I do not have possibility for longer distance for testing at the moment and it will be used for 500m "production" link in the near future) and I have to say that link flaps approximately 5 times per day (no rain, no wind, nothing breaking the clear line of sight, no birds flying, no obvious reason for link flap). Can be caused just by the fact it too close to each other? Or is it something what should be checked by MikroTik (maybe a kind of bug)? The link is under continuous iperf3 bi-directional test, where two servers with 1Gbit/s NICs at the end. Result is somewhere between 800-870 Mbit/s for bi-directional TCP connection and PING is somewhere between 5 to 15 ms.

1) Yes, there are some improvements - mostly stability
3) We are still working on distance improvements - currently no exact distance date available

2) Too much power, try to remove reflector and turn them in different directions.
There are some improvements in rc 29 as well that may fix this

Can somebody please recommend stable SW for wireless wire wAP60G ? I have tried many but all are unstable ? (jam after couple of days = hard reset is necessary). It is probably linked with hot weather ... Thank you.

I am still experiencing a problem with the WAP60 on this firmware.

Both client & AP running latest release.

Client connects when ap set to bridge. However when AP set to ap-bridge same client will not connect. No matter which frequency is selected (even the new 64800)
Do You have level4 license on Bridge device?

Congratulations. Now you know that RC versions must not be installed in production environments.

Rollback to the 'current' or 'bugfix' version and be happy.

How could you think that 60g will work without clear line of sight?
That's just wireless PHY basics. The smaller the wavelength gets, the penetrative wave properties decrease rapidly but the reflective ones increase. Think low/medium frequency ≈ broadcast radio (goes literally straight through the ground), very high frequency ≈ visible light (is reflected almost 100% on mirrors or white objects). This is basically the point for having beamforming, too.

You can try it out yourselves. In the office or at home, put two W60s somewhere in the back of different rooms (with the doors open) and even point them in opposite directions. A connection will be established nonetheless in many cases. In the CLI, you will be able to see a connection length considerably longer than the "beeline" distance between the two devices. What you are witnessing is NLoS propagation.

All that said, I have tried out the benefits from rc27 myself. It got me up to 2dB better RSSI for NLoS setups. Not quite enough to get the "big" route going, but it's something. Eager to try out the new rc32. It would just be so neat if I could go NLoS, without having to put a small relay with two additional W60s in the middle.

i have observed this weird issue with password in earlier rc. i just changed password before upgrade and not logged in after upgrade with new one, just with old. :)

Thank you for a report, but can you please confirm that your Dude client (executed with the administrator rights) auto upgrade was working before 6.43rc17, and does not work in 6.43rc32 ?

So thats the trick :) Yes, with "launch as administrator" dude client updates as expected. But is this "feature" documented somewhere? Because if i load exe "as administrator" i need to enter credentials like first time.
Another hint - winbox does not require to start "as administrator" when upgrading it.

It is a CHR. Apparently it does not have IP Cloud, but I noticed that only because I wanted to have a look at it after reading change notes.

Please fix "/system check-installation" so that it does not only validate the expected installation, but also detects and optionally removes files that should not be there.

E.g. after updating CCR from 6.42.1 a lot of diskspace is lost and "/system check-installation" should identify the file(s) and delete them.

@antonsb I upgrade from v6.43RC21 to 6.43.RC32 and login by API works with old method login.
https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:API#Initial_login

6.43.RC32 will work with the new and previous login?

Thanks

*) tile - fixed Ethernet interfaces becoming unresponsive;

I have a very strange problem with a CCR1072. Suddenly there are IP addresses that stop responding, some work and others do not... within the same broadcast (L2) -no routing apply-. There is no problem of firewall or similar, by ARP the MAC is seen, but communication is simply lost... until a reboot is made and everything works again. It has happened to me twice in the last week. With the 6.42.1. Does this changelog correct this problem or similar?

The problem happens in an 802.3ad bonding interface with vlans on it. At the other end there is a CRS317-1G-16S switch. Even if I restart the switch, it does not recover the communication... I must restart the CCR1072.

We have the same problem, with the eactly same scenario. A CCR1072 with CRS317 and bonding 802.3ad. It has happened to us many times, communication is lost in L2. One way to recover it without restarting the CCR1072 is by simply deactivating the bonding and moving the VLANs to one of the two interfaces... then the ICMP will work again.

So my big question is: Is it the problem in CRS317 or in CCR1072, or maybe the mix of both? I think it has some relationship with bonding...

I hope that with 6.43 this is solved, it is causing us many problems!

We have about 30 x CCR's installed in exactly this fashion, Bonding interface with LACP to a switch (Extreme x620/x670 and Juniper EX4550) and have not experienced this problem, we have been running this configuration successfully for over 5 years now from 6.0rc5 to 6.40.8

So either the problem is in RouterOS newer than 6.40.8 or it is something specific to the CRS317

I hope this helps you.

Thank you very much for the reports about issues with space, next RouterOS version will fix the issue.
Meanwhile this package can be used to clear space on your router,
This fix has a problem, it ruins the installation. When you have only one partition, it means netinstall.

Can the next RC include the fix for the space issue ?

I want to be able to clean the router with the above patch then I want to install a version that does not have the issue that created the lack of space.

:)

Thansk again for the fix and for the clean up patch.

hAp ac2 is not a RBSXTsq5HPnD - also this may depend on what ROS version is being upgraded from. I am happy that you have not had a problem. However I can recreate this bricking process by taking another unit off the shelf :-(

Netinstall does recover the unit and even allowed v6.43rc40 to be loaded - so this is a fault of the upgrade process.

This also may depend on the configuration of the device.
That was a valid point - however I just tested another fresh unit from the same batch which was fully reset with no defaults and I can confirm it is also bricked.

So once again - BEWARE!!!! v6.43rc40 can brick your device - PLEASE CHECK before doing any remote testing.

It has been stated multiple times here that most of the upgrade process is performed by the old version from which you upgrade. So if you in all cases upgraded from 6.40.4., the issue may also be that one, not the 6.43rc40.

It has been stated multiple times here that most of the upgrade process is performed by the old version from which you upgrade. So if you in all cases upgraded from 6.40.4., the issue may also be that one, not the 6.43rc40.
Yeah well that doesn't change the value of the warning that I am giving - especially as the units in question came factory shipped with 6.40.4. Also saying that you cannot upgrade from an older version because of problems in the older version is kinda crazy :-)

So

Try to upgrade the 6.40.4 first to the current version (6.42.5) and then upgrade to 6.43rc from there.

Well, saying it is not crazy, the fact that it happens for some versions is a different question ;-) But this warning has been published by Mikrotik staff in earlier topics here, the only thing I'm far from sure is whether 6.40.4 is affected by that issue or not.

WARNING!!! This version 6.43rc40 just bricked two RBSXTsq5HPnD units I was testing it with. Software upgrade went fine from the factory installed 6.40.4 but then the firmware upgrade bricked the units. Netinstall currently underway.
Same for me, but on a CRS328, upgrade is fine, but when i upgraded the routerboot and rebooted the system not load anymore, i do it a netinstall and recovered the board.

Thank you very much for your report. Looks like the next system reboot after upgrading RouterOS directly from pre-6.41 versions to the latest release-candidate version causes the kernel to disappear on devices with flash memory. We will try to resolve the issue in the next release-candidate version. It is safe to upgrade from 6.41 and later versions.

!) winbox - minimal required version is v3.15;
----------------------


Other changes in this release:

!) cloud - reworked "/ip cloud ddns-enabled" implementation (suggested to disable service and re-enable after installation process);
*) check-installation - improved system integrity checking;
*) chr - fixed interface name order when "virtio-net is not being used on KVM installations;
*) chr - improved balooning process;
*) chr - reduced RAM memory required per interface;
*) defconf - fixed bridge default configuration for SOHO devices with more than 9 Ethernet interfaces;

wAP60G 240m link updated from rc32 to rc42, client not connecting any more in scan see signal but not connecting, back to 6.42.5 it is working again, but seem to me it is not stable as has been in 6.42.1.

Also please check scan for frequency 64800 seems to me it is not scanning that frequency when click scan button.

Had the same with my HAP AC2. Had no time to look for a fix, did you need netinstall?

In RC34; *) winbox - show "System/Health" only on boards that have health monitoring. I don't know if the cAP AC does support health.

I am having a dhcp problem also with VLANs. One of the voip devices gets an IP from a different dhcp-server VLAN every time I reset the switch. If I reset the device after then dhcp assigns proper IP. I will be sending a supout to support about this.

I can confirm, LHG60 does not connect for more than few seconds, still disconnecting and reconnecting. Back on 6.42.5 - works again OK.

If you remove the w60g interface from getting added to bridge, the link works. otherwise it reconnects constantly.

Please fix ;)

I wonder if the same limitations and/or problems apply to LHGG-60ad. Anyone installed them? We are expecting a pair of those and I was wondering what would be the best stable ROS for it. It will be a production link so stability is a must.

Re: v6.43rc [release candidate] is released!

amokkatmt - If your router can reach cloud server over IPv6, then Cloud should resolve to IPv6 address instead of IPv4. That happens automatically;
npero, mlenhart, mistry7, CoMMyz - Improvements on this version have had some side affects that will be resolved in upcoming rc releases;
notToNew - Problem was present because upgrade was made directly from pre-6.41 release. With rc42 upgrade from these versions should work just fine regarding this matter;
nz_monkey, msatter - This device does not have anything to show under System/Health menu. As you can see, this product does not have anything listed under "Other" as a monitoring tool (https://mikrotik.com/product/cap_ac), but for example, this one does (https://mikrotik.com/product/RB1100Dx4);
sutrus, LeftyTs - Please contact support@mikrotik.com regarding this matter;
irghost - Can you reach cloud.mikrotik.com from your device? I recommend that you contact support@mikrotik.com;
LeftyTs - Do not ever use an rc version on important devices. Rc versions are released strictly for testing purposes (for your test labs, not for real life scenarios).

Does it resolve to IPv6 address exclusively then? That would be a real issue for be, because I have devices connected via dual stack, but connect to them from IPv4-only networks.

At the moment RouterOS tries to resolve cloud2.mikrotik.com IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. After that tries to reach IPv4 server, if server is reachable over IPv4, then this address will be used. if IPv4 server is not reachable, then try to use IPv6. At the moment IPv6 cloud is used as a fallback.

So, if RouterOS connects to the Cloud via IPv4 address, it adds 'A' record, and via IPv6 it adds 'AAAA' record? Can we have adding both records, or at least force A record to be added? I have ipip tunnels between routers, and I don't think they will work if address changes from A to AAAA after upgrade/reboot...

Fallback? That's worrying.. I'd rather have IPv6 as an optional feature.

I'm hosting several services on IPv4 endpoints (NATted to internal servers, DNS entry CNAME'd to mynetname.net).
Some services could be hosted via IPv6, but they'd have different IPv6 address (no IPv6 NAT possible).
Some services cannot be hosted via IPv6.

If cloud update fails somehow, I'd rather have the old IPv4 entry stay the same than to suddenly have an IPv6 address which would break all of the hosted-behind-the-MT services.

I would better have two separate checkboxes in /ip cloud, one for IPv4 and one for IPv6. Depending on which option is checked, DNS records for the automatically generated FQDN should be created for the IPv4 address, the IPv6 address or BOTH. Even better, have two automatically generated FQDNs, one with a "-ip4" and one with "-ip6" suffixes after the serial number and associate each with the respective address.

Why do you think two DNS names (one with A record and one with AAAA record) is better than having one DNS name with both A and AAAA records?

Because that way you can explicitly choose using which protocol you want to connect to the device by choosing the corresponding domain name :-)

Because if for example you have a network with different restrictions for IPv4 and IPv6, you can explicity choose which protocol to use to manage the devices, instead of the device deciding for you.

In previous cases when such change notices were posted it became clear later that in fact there was a security problem that was being covered up.
(e.g. some buffer overrun with potential code execution, like in the webserver and the smb server)
Somewhat later the same fix appeared as a current version and everyone was urged to upgrade.
Later when all hell broke loose, we were referred back to the update we should have done because it was recommended, all "to improve reliability".

Re: v6.43rc [release candidate] is released!

Not all of the problems can be summarized in one sentence. Or the cause of the problem can lead up to different consequences. Sometimes end-user even can not see software issue and that can be seen in supout file only by MikroTik staff. For example, DHCPv6 issue could lead to DHCPv6 service crash (can be seen only by MikroTik staff) and IPv6 services could not work or work incorrectly.

As you can see in 6.43rc release - we are improving changelog so important notes would be more noticeable. Also, for example, Winbox vulnerability issue was mentioned in changelog and special topics were made.

Could this, by any remote chance, be related to the issue described here?
DHCP is installed/enabled but not used at all on both ipv4/ipv6.

I agree that the release notes have improved much with the extra information. Then we have the ticket system that and it often unclear if a ticket is solved and I have written several time that a bug was not solved for me and then the line in the release notes was for an other bug in the same part of RouterOS.

If we could see if the ticket is resolved or still waiting, it would be great.

Cha0s - It is not possible to answer your question without seeing supout file from your router. As you know - if you think that there is a software issue on your router, then contact support@mikrotik.com.

Yes, it has certainly improved! good to see that warnings like that are now also visible when doing the one-click-upgrade from the router itself. Lots of people never look here so they do not see the warnings about winbox versions when they are not in the changelog.
There still could be some improvement in the clarity of one-line changelog notices, especially when using words like "reliability" that in the past have been used where "security" should actually have been written.

*) backup - added support for new backup file encryption (AES128-CTR) with signatures (SHA256);
So encryption=rc4 is the old behaviour, encryption=aes-sha256 is the new one? What is the default if I do not specify the option?

Are you still working on hAP ac2's WiFi performance? I use laptop with Intel 7260 and WiFi performance is very poor (it fluctuates a lot within a huge range between 20 KB/s and 9 MB/s with average around 500 KB/s. The same laptop achieves 250 Mbit (which is what I pay for) when I use router provided by ISP (both stay almost in the same place).

What type of laptop do you have, do you know the WiFi chip and number of antennas it has? There are no known issues with the mentioned model, it works fine for most people

I don't use Windows, I don't have it installed. I use latest Linux kernel so yes, the driver is in latest version :) I use this latptop with many APs all over the world and it has no issues. As I said before, I get 250 Mbit in my house using router provided by my ISP where Mikrotik is not even close. Both routers are next to each other.

Version 6.43rc40 has been released.

*) userman - fixed compatibility with PayPal TLS 1.2;
I hope it's not off topic, but when should we expect this to hit the current branch? I have a production userman router that seems to be having some recent Paypal issues lately.

How is that related to 6.43rc in particular? There is a different section on the forum for these questions, called Scripting.

model: CRS317-1G-16S+
release: v6.43rc44

we use some ports with non-10G SFPs (ie 1G-SX and 1G-TX modules with fiber and copper).

those modules get auto negotiation 'incomplete', while claiming the link is ok but no working datatransmission can be established.

model: hAP ac^2 (arm) - RouterBOARD D52G-5HacD2HnD-TC
release: v6.43rc44

I'm experiencing memory leakage. After 8 days of running, free RAM is down to ~90MB (starting at ~205MB after a fresh reboot). The device is "losing" ~14MB of free memory a day...

I don't have any fancy configuration, logs etc. are written external etc.

Anyone else getting this?

Yesterday I set up an ipsec connection between 2 devices, one running 6.42.6 the other 6.43rc44.
All IKE related settings were the same on both devices, but I wasn't able to establish a connection, unless I changed the hash algorithm to sha256 on the one running 6.42.6 and sha1 on the other.

When I added a new peer configuration using IKEv2, it killed all other non-IKEv2 connections immediately, which shouldn't happen either.

!) cloud - added IPv6 support;
!) cloud - added support for licensed CHR instances (including trial);
!) cloud - reworked "/ip cloud ddns-enabled" implementation (suggested to disable service and re-enable after installation process);
!) mac-telnet - require at least v6.43 MAC Telnet client when connecting to v6.43 or later version server;
!) radius - use MS-CHAPv2 for "login" service authentication;
!) romon - require at least v6.43 RoMON agent when connecting to v6.43 or later RoMON client device;

As a workaround worth trying if this issue complicates your life, it might be possible to send the SMSes using /interface lte at-chat and the AT command used to send SMSes on your modem model.

This is a release candidate. Things do break as you add/improve functionality as nobody makes no mistakes at all. Se s tim smiř (in Czech).

hAP AC2 still works very poorly with Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-N 7260. Transfer rate approximately 10 times slower than with other routers and often drops to 0 kbps.

can you show some results? i was experiencing performance varying between 250-430Mbps using SXTsq ACs with early 6.43rc builds even under excellent conditions.

NOOOOO!!!! -"radius - use MS-CHAPv2 for "login" service authentication;"

I hope there is a setting for this. chap, chapv2 with or without ms flavour is doing nothing good to the fact that static passwords are weak and should not be used.

We use one time passwords witch will not work in replay mode due to the fact of being ONE TIME. this makes all challenge based algorithm fail there simply is nothing to do challange on.

put PAP back now or atleast make it a setting so admins may choose the best setting for their env and needs. Make this setting universal så that we may use onetime radius password for winbox as well.

I have requested this many times.... This should be a setting is it or is it not? (Have not yet tested the RC in a router but will later this week.)

And even worse the chap packet that you send out doest not contain any password (you are sending empty radius request even before asking the user of a password. Clean upp your code and enable PAP/CHAP/MSCHAP as option NOW!

I'm trying this RC in a CRS328-4C-20S-4S+RM

After downgrading to Current 6.42.6 Radius pap (one time passwords) and rename admin works like a charm again.

Drop of RADIUS PAP support for ssh logins is a big problem for us too.

We're using a one-time password implementation which is impossible to integrate with MS-CHAPv2 - the security appliance only stores the hash of the PIN (fixed part of the password) and because of this cannot support MS-CHAPv2 since it would require to store PIN as clear-text. 6.43rc is forcing us to drop the OTP, actually decreasing security of the network.

Please allow us to make decisions on how to secure our network ourselves and make a setting allowing to select PAP for "login" service authentication. In any case RADIUS requests can always be sent via encrypted tunnels, while MS-CHAPv2 security strength has been watered down to level of a long obsolete single DES56 - one can find online services that will crack it in a day.

I agree.
If the internal system works with hash passwords ok, but If the router manager has a secure radius and want to use this kind of system should be permitted.
The SSH passwords are plain text in the encrypted tunnel and PAP still can be used.

This is definitely the wrong thread for your request. There are separate threads and parts of the forum for those kind of questions. This thread is solely for issues with this particular release version and it's update.

*) filesystem - fixed NAND memory going into read-only mode (requires "factory-firmware" >= 3.41.1 and "current-firmware" >= 6.43);
Please clarify:
Ex:
I run 6.40.8
System routerboard print:
routerboard: yes
model: RouterBOARD 3011UiAS
serial-number: 689A05572F46
firmware-type: ipq8060
factory-firmware: 3.27
current-firmware: 3.41
upgrade-firmware: 3.41
Will the fix be included only in later production runs?
I was under the assumption that the factory-firmware identifies the firmware ver# the device initially shipped with,
and it can't be somehow upgraded.
Or we are talking about bakup routerboot code... (in which case I still think it is not user-upgradeable?).
Nothing relevant on the wiki.
Thanks.

Hi,

Something is wrong with the Hash Algorithms in Peer Proposal setting in v6.43.51:
Peer Proposal mismatch.PNG
If I have to set the SHA1 algorithm, in WinBox I have to set md5.

rc51 seems better on point-to-point Wireless Wires (fixed dropping issues in 6.42.6)
But we're still seeing a lot of disconnects with multipoint.

Nothing relevant on the wiki.
I think factory routerboard firmware = backup bootloader.
It's normally not allowed but seems possible to upgrade the factory version: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:R ... D_settings
The backup RouterBOOT version can not be older than v3.24 version. A special package is provided to upgrade the backup RouterBOOT (DANGEROUS). Newer devices will have this new backup loader already installed at the factory. Download the package for:
I usually assumed the factory/backup version to be completely irrelevant unless you force it by a RESET button sequence (or possibly some other means).
I still think this is the case here. The new feature will probably be available when using the normal boot loader (of a high enough version) but be absent when using the backup bootloader (either manually forced or may be automatically triggered if the "main" one is too corrupted to do anything).

I never tried but thought the secondary (factory) version can be upgraded too, either via Netinstall or even just by using the "force backup booter" and initiating an upgrade from ROS. But I never felt the need, so never tried... I just tried to latter (force backup and upgrade from ROS) but it's not that easy. I wonder if Netinstall could do it.

Edit:
Oh! And I think even though we now have a matching ROS and bootloader version (even for every incremental, let alone RC version), that firmware still has some internal version number (probably still somewhere around 3.4x for ROS 6.4x). So this change only complicates this question (it's probably possible to have basically the same factory backup and "main" booloader on a device even though the visible version number is seemingly much higher on the normally-upgradeable "main" firmware).

I think they just rebuild the source code of the bootloader for every ROS release, so it has a matching version number but this no longer indicates they made any change to the source. But this seems to be impractical because now we don't know when the code actually changes.

All valid considerations.
I suppose they do refer to the secondary bootloader,
in witch case they should provide a "special" package for the users who would want to upgrade the backup loader.
Still, I would like a clarification from mikrotik.

In my opinion the best solution would be to always auto-upgrade the main bootloader along every ROS upgrade (without the need to issue manual reboot twice) and allow the user to manually upgrade the backup bootloader once the new ROS successfully booted with an upgraded main bootloader (which is a fair enough confirmation that the device is stable enough with the new bootloader to use ROS for bootloader changes, thus it's probably possible to downgrade if some small error occurs later on).

Re: v6.43rc [release candidate] is released!

Sat Aug 04, 2018 11:40 pm

Hi

I ran into a strange problem.
I had to reinstall the system with Netinstall to the latest rc51 version.

My device is a CRS109-8G-1S-2HnD which is a DHCP client on the SFP copper port (ISP is UPC). I try to run a speedtest.net from my desktop PC .

After everything was ready, i tried to run a speedtest, The speed was 80Mbps with 90% of cpu load. The idle load was 17%.
Ok, i installed back to the 6.42.6. The speed was 400Mbps with 50% of cpu load. Idle load is 4%.
Nice. So i did some screenshot from the tools/profile.
The last step was back to 6.43rc51 to reproduce the problem. But now everything is looks nice, on this RC i can get the 400Mbps with the same load as it was on the 6.42.6...

I don't know what happened, i didn't changed the config.... but now looks like everything is ok...

Just write this post as a note, may be helps to somebody.

Can this also be explained. Similar to selective q-in-q?
Would also like this explained

Hi, I'm also using PAP with radius for authentication to support 2FA logins. Using only chap is not helpful. Is feedback here taken on board or is there a more official way to get this heard?

Wiki has been updated with an example:
https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:I ... g_stacking

Selective QinQ is not possible yet, only port based QinQ or CVID stacking is possible now.

Hi,

Here is a problem with CRS317 and rc51.

My configuration :
some clients <---> CRS326 <===== Trunk1(only tagged VLANs) =====> CRS317 <===== Trunk2 (only tagged VLANS) ====> CRS328 <---> some clients

Installation with version 6.42.6 for the three devices : no problem.

Upgrade on version 6.43rc51 for the three devices :
everything is working like version 6.42.6, except the fact that CRS317 is unreachable for remote management via CRS326/CRS328 :
- no access to the web pages
- no access with winbox + it doesn't appear in 'neighbors'
CSR317 is still manageable through a direct connection to one of its ports.

1st Test : I decide to change CRS317 with and old TP-link switch with the same VLAN/Trunk configuration. The TP-Link switch is available for remote management via CRS326/CRS328.
2nd Test : I rebuild CRS317 with a netsintall of version 6.43rc51 and a fresh configuration. Same behaviour, the CRS317 is unreachable for remote management via CRS326/CRS328.

Are you aware of this king of problem with the RC version ?
If I find the time, I'll do a last test by reinstalling version 6.42.6 on the CRS317 only.

Found the problem and it was that I changed to an other DNS server that did not Round Robin by default.

Could we please get some examples of how to use these features on the Wiki ?

I cannot see any of the options I would expect, e.g. being able to set the contents of the Option-82 injection string with variables for the first feature, or being able to specify the valid DHCP server for the second.

Did you specify which ports are trusted ports under /interface bridge port?

Still seeing multipoint Wireless Wire disconnects with 6.43rc56. I don't think the RC branch has been stable on these since rc17 :(
6.42.3 continues to be my recommended version.

Hello,

Funny thing after Version 6.43rc56 , my DHCPv6 client is showing in red in winbox, even though everything is working, and my ipv6 connectivity is ok. Still after after re-creating it from scratch... Not a big deal, but...

I notice that in 6.43rc34 the /interface bridge vlan untagged= configuration no longer strips all the C-tags from a packet with multiple C-tags. Instead it only strips the top C-tag.
Will this be the case in the production version?
If so, would it be possible to reinstate the former behaviour as an option?

IntrusDave - you can find more information about this option here:

https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:T ... Properties

diablothebest - this can be done under /interface bridge port

Re: v6.43rc [release candidate] is released!

Sat Aug 18, 2018 1:32 am

So, I spun up a brand new CHR in AWS and updated it to 6.43rc56, to play around with it. One of my main goals was to update the ruby 'mtik' gem to use the new login method, so that when the 6.43 is eventually released for real, I can continue to use it.

Oddly, though, the old login method still seemed to work on 6.43rc56. Is it intended that both methods are available at the moment? While that certainly provides a better transitional user experience, it does seem to imply that the unhashed password is still being stored (at least insofar as I understand the challenge-response login process).

Can anyone clarify this?

Version 6.43rc56 has been released.

*) w60g - stop doing distance measurements after first successful measurement;
I have to report, that distance measurement does not work correctly. On AP side it reports 706.54m while on client side just 374.28m (374.28 is the correct distance)

I agree with that, it should be possible to have a system setting that changes the date format everywhere, but it would be feature request not something for the v6.43rc topic.

Re: v6.43rc [release candidate] is released!

Fri Aug 24, 2018 1:20 pm

The winbox behaviour where winbox closes upon reconnecting to a previously broken connection, is again here since v3.16. It occurs not always, but quite often. Mktik, can you please look into it?

Another issue: I am trying to connect to a device via RoMON which runs over a EoIP connection (L2 only, not bridged, no IPs) which is established over a L2TP tunnel. Even though the L2TP tunnel is quite stable, winbox cannot stay connected for more than a few seconds at a time. Actually, winbox opens the RoMON connection, but any list (say, interfaces) shows up empty and after a few seconds the window closes. Any ideas?

*) wireless - added "czech republic 5.8" regulatory domain information;
*) wireless - updated "czech republic" regulatory domain information;

Is it what I mean? So now we'll have two czech 5GHz ranges now - one for traditional channels and second for channels over 5700 which can have max transmit power 20dBi only?
If yes, It's great! Because now I have big problem if I have the wireless link calculated for 30dBi and DFS switches to channel over 5700 and 20dBi..

RB750 Gr3 does have hardware acceleration of IPsec ever since the first release. What it does not have is "hardware acceleration" of VLAN handling on the switch chip.

Unfortunately this is true for most devices, some of them have quite a decent switch chip built in.

I lost all ipsec connections after updating to rc64 because of a bug in peer profiles.

Something must have been changed with ipsec processing in rc64. No traffic is passing through the tunnels.
I moved back to 56, where everything works fine.

It would be nice if that would also be communicated in the changelog if something gets broken in the process and there is knowledge about that. Preferable also in red to warn.
Saves downgrades for some who are using that specific feature.

I updated to rc64, but it seems I can not communicate with ipv6. There was no problem with at least rc56.
We used netinstall to reintroduce rc64, but the situation has not changed.

IPsec throughput test results will be published on the RB3011 product page in the next few days. Currently one user has reported a kernel failure caused by the new hardware acceleration. We are looking into it and hopefully will be able to fix it in the next release candidate version. Initial tests show approximately 4 times higher throughput compared to software encryption.

As usual, client PC under Routerboard can not connect with IPv6.
Also, if you try to disable dhcp-snooping or option 82 again and enable it again, it is confirmed that the command times out.

Worked around the issue:
/ ip ipsec mode-config add name=request responder=no system-dns=no
/ ip ipsec peer set mode-config=request [ find where !dynamic ]
So my system is up and running, but I suppose this is not how things are supposed to work.

[Ticket#2018083022003334]
Problems were solved by netinstalling Routerboard, which can not be connected normally from client PC under Routerboard with ipv6.
However, it is unknown whether this correspondence is satisfactory.

Technically this is not about the release candidate version, posting here because of changelog:
!) cloud - reworked "/ip cloud ddns-enabled" implementation (suggested to disable service and re-enable after installation process);
Me device is running current version 6.42.7 and I want to update the latest release candidate. Looks like disabling ddns fails:
[admin@MikroTik] > / ip cloud set ddns-enabled=no
[admin@MikroTik] > / ip cloud print
    ddns-enabled: no
     update-time: yes
  public-address: 198.51.100.65
        dns-name: xxxxxxxx.sn.mynetname.net
          status: Error: request timed out
I can still query dns for my address. This should remove the record from dns, no?

After a while ... depends on how often is RB supposed to renew the DDNS record. If you turn cloud off, cloud (hopefully) doesn't know it and records have to expire.

After a while ... depends on how often is RB supposed to renew the DDNS record. If you turn cloud off, cloud (hopefully) doesn't know it and records have to expire.
No. From https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Cloud:
After router sends it's IP address to the cloud server, it will stay on the server permanently. DNS name (/ip cloud dns-name) will resolve to last sent IP address. When user set /ip cloud set ddns-enabled=no router will send message to server to disable DNS name for this routerboard.

Technically this is not about the release candidate version, posting here because of changelog:
!) cloud - reworked "/ip cloud ddns-enabled" implementation (suggested to disable service and re-enable after installation process);
Me device is running current version 6.42.7 and I want to update the latest release candidate. Looks like disabling ddns fails:
[admin@MikroTik] > / ip cloud set ddns-enabled=no
[admin@MikroTik] > / ip cloud print
    ddns-enabled: no
     update-time: yes
  public-address: 198.51.100.65
        dns-name: xxxxxxxx.sn.mynetname.net
          status: Error: request timed out
I can still query dns for my address. This should remove the record from dns, no?
Works now, at least after some retries. Possibly the servers were too loaded?

As usual, client PC under Routerboard can not connect with IPv6.
Also, if you try to disable dhcp-snooping or option 82 again and enable it again, it is confirmed that the command times out.

[Ticket#2018083022003334]
If IPv6 is configured on a bridge, you may need to mark the bridge port as "Trusted".
This resolved the issue for us.

I can't change the name of the admin user:

[admin@MikroTik] > /user set 0 name=test
failure: user name can't be changed


nor any other user.
same here.

rc56 was fine.
