This bug has been around as long as ROS7 has been a thing. I don't see it getting fixed anytime soon.

wifi442

Still seeing this Winbox issue on 7.15.3. Any plans to fix?

/mpls traffic-eng path
Entries are still not working in WinBox. CLI only. This was reported back in early December if I recall.

Any plans to add VRF selections to ZeroTier? That would come in very handy allowing multiple ZT instances over multiple WAN connections. Right now a single ZT takes many minutes to reconnect after a WAN drops out.

wifi442

Are there any plans to allow ZeroTier instances to use a different VRF?

It would be nice for connections with multiple WANS and OSPF

Keep up the good work guys!

yes exactly what i pointed to, and i did not understand, how do you mean by cannot used directly? in version 6 i used to use TE directly and for version 7 there is no new documentation that explain new method to use TE interfaces There is no "new method" its just a winbox bug. If you want...

With some parts of my network I can send pings with packet sizes up to 65535. Other parts of my network won't let pings over ~32000 go through. As I increase the packet size, timeouts start occurring intermittently until 35000 at which point there is %100 packet loss. The internet seems fine over th...

I had this issue a few months ago and never quite figured it out. We had a UPS fail and lost the main router for about 10 minutes. When we powered router back up all seemed fine except for 2 or 3 of our customers that have their own IPSEC tunnels that run out the internet. They would not come back u...

I'm running a ubnt/mikrotik network with OSPF and MPLS. many of my routes i have set up asymmetrically. so upload goes one way, download comes from another path. i've heard this may lead to problems with MPLS and asymmetric routes. i've also noticed The Dude can't get monitoring statistics from som...

No one has had this happen? I now have a fear that if for some reason my core router needs to be rebooted, I have to torch all ipsec connections that customers have to verify they all came back up. If they haven't, off to connection tracking to try to manually kill the "U" Unreplied connec...

wifi442

Sorry for the thread revival. Today I had to reboot my core router (bad UPS, moved to another one). Once the router came back up I was having trouble with customers that use IPSEC. Everything else was perfect. I had 4 separate customers who had tunnels that would not connect, pulled my hair out all ...

Hi, I have ospf in my network divided into backbone, area1 and area2 - depends on real area ( different cities ) Some links have backups links, but the question is if I want to change to NBMA how to set priorities - for example this situation on the drawing.

Slightly OT. I have just started setting up a link with NV2. It is 8km. Both ends UBNT 30 db dishes. The problem is I see very bad latency and jitter when the link is idle or close to idle. Is this normal? With NV2 I get 300/300 100%/100% ccq. Even with some minor traffic latency is still very bad a...

Chadd,

Thanks for the reply. I keep hearing about how awesome NV2 is. I've tested a few links indoors at the office. If definitely looks promising! I really want to give it a try in the field.

I am getting ready to set up new links soon. They are links up to a tower site with lots of noise. I currently run a Ubnt Rocket M2 and also another rocket M5 Link with the rocket dishes up to this tower. I am moving office locations and am considering swapping the radios to UBTIK's in place of the ...

wifi442

load is measured, when that reaches certain value then power to the port is turned off (overload protection).

How much current can be used if we use ether1 for powering? I know 2.5A total through the DC power plug but what about using the poe of port 1? Is it the same?

Thanks

Baltic has them. I have 3 on the way. Titan Wireless has them too

Ok so the problem appears to have solved itself. I was getting about 4% packet loss on larger packets pinging to my L2TP data center server. It seems that enabling MRRU over ppp connections requires a very stable link. The packet loss subsided so I decided to give it another try and now it is worki...

wifi442

My problem seemed to have solved itself. I was also having packet loss issues. The packet loss went away and now It works great. It seems you need a really stable link to use BCP and MRRU.

Also worth mentioning, I am running 5.7 on everything. RB450G on FIOS end. RB1100 at Data center in another town. RB450G is connected directly to the FIOS ONT, has been for quite some time.

I can ping full 1500 byte packets without fragmentation over the Fios line. Are you sure that's not from the days of PPoE FIOS? (Mine is DHCP) Should I lower the MTU of the public interface for kicks? 1492? If you have the DHCP FIOS, then yes it should be 1500... have you tried the router at 1500 w...

I can post my config but the other site/router is working fine with this on it's cable connection same RB450G. RB1100 on the other end. I'm just wondering if that 1437 MTU is a magic number that can shed some light.

I've tried everything. I have it working on another router/link with similar config. Works great so far on that one.

The hello and dead intervals only have to match on the interfaces between directly connected peers. Don't be too zealous. Take into account that link thrashing in the same area leads to the OSPF algorithm being run on every router in the area. And possibly other areas depending on more complex deta...

Well I just ended up getting another 450g for the other connection. Then just routed them together. It adds another hop to trace routes but for what I'm doing it's fine. Plus it might have been too much for one 450g to handle. Either way problem is solved. I would like a way to distinguish similar p...

If there is no match for a routing mark other marks are eligible. Just make sure the routing mark route has a higher AD than the normal default OSPF routes (which it would be default). When it is withdrawn the default should kick in. Basically this should be working out of the box. If that doesn't ...

Alternatively if you want more power (and the ability to run virtual machines on your mikrotik) you could look at going for an x86 based router instead of a Routerboard. We use a lot of Routerboard gear, but normally only to back-up the higher powered x86 boxes we use. These include: PowerRouters D...

wifi442

If you have an RB1100 you might as well use it. More RAM, faster processor.

That's what I'm thinking too. I do have a use for it coming up that's why I was asking if I could get away with something like the 450g. I hope I can get my hands on another one when I need it!

Yes, use OSPF. How many areas you want to use depends on the physical and logical topology of your network. All areas must connect to the backbone area 0.
