Hi All, Is anyone aware of the different meaning of ! and * in the change log entries. Below is an example the first 2 entries start with ! but the rest start with * Does this mean different things?

Hi All, I'm looking for some help with a test setup, I've setup caps man 1 devices is the Managers and 1 device is acting as the AP. The traffic is being bridged locally on the AP.

Hi MT team, Thanks for the conn tracking sync feature it's really helpful, However there is one use case where it's lacking.

Hi All, Now that ROS7 has hit "Stable" and I mean that from a dev point of view not performance. Does anyone know if Mikrotik plan to continue supporting and fixing issues in 6 or is all development effort now going into 7 and have we seen the last release of a 6.x package? If they are con...

Hey Pe1chl So I didn't change anything else in the config. Vlan tagging was always being done by the Mikrotik. I happened to have a Kasda KW5262 with the stock firmware no isp branding or anything just laying about doing nothing so I configured that as a bridge and boom everything started working I'...

Ok so after reaching out to MT support I have to eat my words. Emīls really went above and beyond on this case. I cannot speak ill of their support again.

Thanks all for the input and thoughts and suggestions. They maybe willing to consider the CAP AC XL depending on pricing they just don't wanna spend on hardware that is on the older side but I think when they see options they might reconsider.

markmcn

Hi SVMK, I agree with you and I use capsman usually if there is more than 1 AP. The issues is this is a new deployment and the user doesn't wanna spend money on hardware which won't support wave2 which makes perfect sense. My view is that it's crazy that MT are still launching hardware which doesn't...

markmcn

Thank Anav, That's a real shame I was optimistic with the XL but when I saw the ram size it just made no sense for MT to launch such a device. Thanks for the TP link suggestions I'll take a look but with your experience of them, Them mention cloud management which I'm not a fan of since, Do you know...

Hi All, Just wondering, I'm planning a deployment/installation and I was looking at the CAP XL AC however it looks like this won't support the Wave2 package (Based on ram requirements) which is disappointing given it's new hardware.

Hi Pe1chl, Thanks for your thoughts honestly, I get it I don't expect personal consultancy and as I said I've opened tickets where I have missed things which did take support time which was my own fault. I suppose I just feel support are possibly ignoring what has potential to be a larger issue. If ...

I wouldn't hold my breath, My ticket was opened back in June 21 and to date I've only got one reply on it which was Oct 21. It's not like it was filed with the statement of it doesn't work.

markmcn

Sadly Mikrotik Support are being very silent on the ticket I have opened. I have sent them updates and support output's etc but I have no confirmation they have made any progress or are actively working on the issue. I understand this isn't a paid service support program like other vendors so I'm ju...

markmcn

One Point to add to this in 6.49 I've disabled connection tracking and I can create the issue by disabling and enabling the PPPoE interface IPSec still fails on an ARM device

markmcn

I've just tested 7.1RC5 on a Rb1100AH4 and the issue of IPSec failing to restore after PPPoE bounces is still there

There wasn't anything in the change log but I had hoped it might have been fixed

markmcn

It's for IPSec breaks after PPPoE interface flaps. It's on an RB1100AH4 (Arm) also. I've simplified my configs back to just an ipsec tunnel no gre and still have issues after a PPPoE bounce. Last night I've upgraded to 6.49 and tried with the same thing again. I've captured logs and support outs and...

markmcn

Hey pe1chl
I hope you have better luck with your case,
I have SUP-52523 open for the same issue and it's very slow going, I'm guessing the support team are very busy
Here's hoping having a few tickets open about the same bug will help,
Cheers
Mark

markmcn

Hey pe1chl, In my case both devices have public IP's landing directly on the device and there is no CG-NAT in between them 100% sure of this. In my case with the 1100AH4 that' doing it actually both plug into the same VDSL modem in bridge mode and just have different PPPoE cred's to get different ip...

markmcn

I've mixed success with going through and disabling all elements of the ipsec config peer, policy etc and leaving them disabled for a while but this doesn't always work. The only sure fire ways that work for me are holding PPPoE down for 3-5 min once the issue presents or just rebooting the device. ...

markmcn

Not helpful but you're not alone having IPSec issues with PPPoE flaps I'm seeing IPSec break on a RB1100AH4 every time PPPoE flaps and the installed SA's clear following this ipsec is broken until reboot, or if you hold the PPPoE down for like 3~5 min, I've a case with Tik Support going on about it....

markmcn

Hi Eric,
So I've just tested setting 2 peers in the lab for the same policy it didn't do load sharing as hoped.
At this stage I'd suggest using an IPIP tunnel (a tiny bit less overhead than GRE) with IPSec and that way you can put /30's on the tunnel interfaces and do ecmp that way
Cheers
Mark

markmcn

Hey andriys
Thanks for the clarification I was just wondering if I had missed a useful trick somewhere when you mentioned your setup the first time
Cheers
Mark

markmcn

Hi Eric, When defining the traffic policy in box you can select 2 peers from the drop down list. In the general tab of New IPSec Policy you can see little arrows to the right of the dropdown list to allow you select a second peer. from the CLI it would be /ip ipsec policy> add peer=peer1,peer2 src-a...

Hi jprietove,
Thank you for the helpful reply I'll have a play with this in the lab, Appreciate you taking the time to reply
I'll try to update there with a lab example for others if time allows

Hey Andriys,
Since you have 3 routers on each side how do you manage routing between the subnets on each side.
do they all aggregate into a lan router which has 3 static routes for the same remote subnet one for each ipsec router?
I'm just curious how you're managing the load sharing
Cheers
Mark

markmcn

Hi Eric, I was looking at this briefly, You can define multiple peers for a policy, I'm not sure if this will do ECMP but might be worth trying in a lab. You could could setup some CHR instances to test, If I get a chance to test this I will and share results. I've often found policy based IPSec gen...

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knows will a tik device generate a CRL if I revoke certs which have been signed by that device?
Eg If I have a central router which is acting as a CA and I need to revoke a cert it has signed can I get a CRL so it can be published for validation by hosts?

It would be great to see, However I opened a ticket to request this as it would allow for a standard file structure, All devices have a flash folder rather than this mixture of some flash some not.

Hey, So first off it might be worth considering a different protocol other than SSTP maybe IPSec as depending on your equipment you can get the benefit of hardware acceleration.That's a side note. To answer your question you can turn down the keepalive timeout under the sstp server settings. This wi...

markmcn

At a guess and I stress guess because we don't have any config details or anything else this sounds like it could be an MTU issue. Since some sites work and others don't. If you can share a diagram and also run the command /export hide-sensitive this will export the configuration and should hide sen...

markmcn

It sounds like you need to perform a netinsall to reload routeros

Just be careful as this wipes the config

It will be difficult for anyone to provide any suggestions other than pure guesses without more details.
Might I suggest posting a

On the wireless security profile, Try increasing the group-key-update time from 5min(Default) to 1Hr.
Alot of domestic routers / hardware use 1Hr as their default value for this parameter.

You could try a packet capture on the wire to see what else is going on. Once suggestion is to make sure that Mikrotik neighbour discovery is disabled on the interfaces also. You might want to look at the port speed & duplex settings also maybe limit the switch to only try and negotiate the spee...

to answer your question any unit with an RX in the -50's then you need to turn down the tx power of the one it's talking to,
Chance are you will need to turn down the tx power on them all

Well with a receive level in the -50's you need to turn back the tx a little, They are screaming at eachother .

Quick thoughts, I'd say you could turn down the TX power level's a bit to bring RX into the -60's. Have you checked to ensure there is enough physical separation between the dynadishs? Have you checked they are not on the same or very close channels (I.e Overlapping). The poor CCQ is the problem. If...

You have to remember that Bonding interfaces is also CPU bound

As you have only posted 2 of the 4 config's from the DynaDishes I can't check this but have you confirmed you're not using the same frequency on both?
