Re: RB2011 & Switch Chip .1q question

The question is, sub-interfaces will be attached to which port in order for traffic coming from port 1,2 and 3 to be accessible on those sub-interfaces ?

Hi, what i'm trying to accomplish is to have a few switches connected via .1q to the gigabit ports of 2011, have the traffic switched and the router act as a gateway for each vlan. From what i understand from the switch chip features, this is only possible with Atheros 8316 ? Is there any way, other...

Same problem here, using Actual Window Manager 6.7.2.
Menus will not show, winbox when closed will not exit (have to kill via task manager).

I have added it to exceptions and all is fine now, took me a while to realise what the problem was :)

Re: RB1000 + Full BGP Table + OSPF Downlinks

Sup32 is not really intended to have full tables, Sup720/RSP720 do, however, i still think this has to be solved by Mikrotik, its just stupid to have bgp take all CPU and not leave anything else for other time sensitive tasks.

Re: Hardware for 2 full views

I have to agree with believewireless, it takes a very long time to receive and process the full bgp table, at which point the CPU is used 100% (and if you use ospf or other timing sensitive stuff, they will timeout).

X86 would be fine, but i didnt got around to replace the RB1000 i have.

Re: PPPoE Client - Boot Problems

I think i have identified the problem, which is very different.

What i was doing was to take all ports out of the switch, and use the "master port" setting on each interface.
When doing that, the problem described above occurs.

Re: RB1000 + Full BGP Table + OSPF Downlinks

BGP isn't for fast convergence, that's why im using OSPF to distribute loopbacks via multiple links, so in case one goes down, bgp wont reset as the loopbacks are always reachable, so BGP process taking all the CPU from the system is rather bad. I would rather see this problem fixed than change rout...

That's not really an option if you want to manipulate a big BGP table, or you have to, for example, mark same subnets with different communities to lots of different peers ...
