Re: Database description packet has different master status flag

I think I've fixed this, I was doing my head in, I was using the loopback IP as the routerID, once I set it back to 0.0.0.0 so that OSPF dynamically chooses the lowest IP as the RID, my routing tables updated and I'm running smooth. So far so good. Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Cody Volckmar.

Re: EOIP Queue

This seems to work very nicely, I'm trying to limit eoip tunnels into our cloud computing environment and this did the trick. So thank you! We don't charge clients for data uploaded/downloaded into their private cloud but need to use these queues to share the available bandwidth in the multitenant e...

Re: Point-to-point (/31) addresses

Brilliant :) I would skip using an actual /31, and just use two /32s. Specify the remote address as the "network", and you should be good to go. This mechanism is more flexible than using /31s, as the addresses don't need to be adjacent; and more efficient since you can re-use the same add...

Wireless outdoor range

Hello Mikrotik community, I am looking to deploy an outdoor AP for a hotspot, I was wondering what the maximum realistic range an outdoor AP can deliver for mobile phones, as far as I know, indoor APs can only deliver about 10-20 meters reliable before disconnections are experienced. Any help would ...

Re: OSPFv2 neighbor x.x.x.x: state change from Full to Down

This works like a charm, very interesting. Hello! I have 2 routers with OSPF neighboring over a radio link (Ubiquiti). It happens that the link state goes randomly down even if the radio link is always up and running. Both routers have been upgraded to 6.38.5. One is a CCR1009, other is a RB2011. CP...

Zone Based Firewall

Hi all, This is my attempt at a ZBF on mikrotik, it's quite clean and seems very effective. Open to criticism. I don't think all the brute force rules are even necessary with this setup. I used Trusted -> Input Secure (Dyamic Interfaces) src-address-list=secure for IP ranges that are inherently trus...

Terminal History (Like UNIX shell)

HI guys,

Is there any chance off adding in a feature whereby on the Mikrotik CLI, you can type 'history' and see a history of executed commands like on a UNIX shell?
Let me know your thoughts.

Re: Feature Request - LCD Display Access

+1 like on custom button and custom text. I work for a fiber ISP and if we could write a script to show if the SFP is down, then the client can tell us what the LCD says and we can immediately contact the fiber provider as the issue is almost never on the router itself. Also, I think if this could b...

IP to Port or Master/Slave | Guru help needed

Hello everyone, I have encountered a scenario where I am unsure what is most optimal. I work for an ISP in Cape Town SA, We typically remove all config on a CPE and create a software bridge and add all "LAN" ports to that bridge and assign LAN IP to the bridge interface, but this could inc...

Re: Email tool, multiple attachments

Hi there, did you manage to get this working? Thank you for the response Jarda. Just another query I have; is it possible to, lets say, to send an e-mail with a single attachment and send other information in the body of the text. Example: :if ([find name="e-mail_backup"]!="") do...
