Re: Beta 3.0 RC9 x86 - OpenVPN server licence bug

After 2 days of operation I get an error message that says I have exceeded the number of connections allowed by my licence (200). I have only got 16 connections at any one time.. It looks like routeros is not properly freeing the VPN sessions that timeout. I have noticed some strange behaviour with...

Re: DNS problem

Increase your cache size. It is full. ( cache-size = cache-used ! )
That may be the cause - cache aging/purging algo not working well.

Re: Layer7 in firewall - 3.0rc5

each yahoo mess packet, contains ym. I put ym in the regexp and it is ok.
Such a "regexp" would match also your and my post, and a mail containing e.g. the word "gymnastics". They too contain "ym". So be careful with the rules.

Yes, there is no Winbox support for this feature. This will be only in the next release.
In the console you should go under 'ip firewall layer7-protocol'
We will put some more info how to use this soon.

Re: Layer7 in firewall - 3.0rc5

Thank you. Just found it.
I must suppose regexp should be regular expression, right ?
I really hope it's not Regular Expression but PCRE (Perl-Compatible Regular Expression) which is more powerful and simpler (and more efficient but I have no numbers to prove that).
