Not sure by what you mean by an example. The situation I have described is a classic example. You have a router on a network that is working as a PPTP VPN Server. This device has a public interface for logging in from the internet and a private interface to access the local network through the VPN. ...

Thanks for your response Chupaka. My issue here is that according to RFC 1027 it should not respond to a default route. See the extract below. "In 4.3BSD (and probably in other operating systems), a default route is possible. This default route specifies an address to forward a packet to when n...

It appears that Proxy ARP on a MT Minirouter 150 running v3.30 is not responding as expected. The configuration is simple with a private 192.168.5.x/24 address configured on Eth 1 and a public IP address configured on Eth 2. It is configured for PPTP with a remote address of 192.168.5.10 and a local...

I am getting this as well. Actually exactly the same symptoms as with 3.0 Beta 6 which is very dissapointing. I was really hoping this would get fixed as there was a lot of discussion about the problem with Beta 6 and we have waited a long time for any fix

Has anyone managed to get regex working on the syslog. I am trying to get syslog to generate a notification on a specific string and cannot get it to work. I am looking for notification on DHCP errors. dhcp is in the syslog entry and I have entered dhcp in the regex box but it doesn't seem to recogn...

tried changing it to 2000ms and it has just gone down again sadly

Sadly I don't think this is anything to do with timeouts, I would like to be proved wrong however. My system can go very occasionally for 48hrs before failing. Sometimes it goes down 3 times in a day. I have looked with ethereal and it has stopped completely no pings no snmp probes. I cannot find an...

I wish it were true but sadly no, ping is set to ICMP, TTL 128 and ..... had to restart it 1hr after changing the TTL. I would really like to get a version 3 beta that works ! or even some answer as to when we might get one !

Could someone indicate when V3 Beta 7 is likely to be available as I am still having to restart V3 Beta 6, 2 to 3 times a day which makes it very unreliable. Thanks

Uldis is there any update on this issue. Is there going to be a fix as I cannot use beta6 to monitor the network. I have seen it stop working 3 times today now

Any news on this problem Uldis, it is failing twice a day at the moment which makes it somewhat unusable.

I certainly will Uldis, it is ok at the moment but will check that it is pinging when it fails again. I don't think this is the same problem that Firebat is observing as I have never seen it before. The problem has only occurred after upgrading from 2.2 to 3beta6. The only other changes I have made ...

Uldis, it stopped again at 02:20am this morning. I checked with Ethereal and there were no pings being issued and no SNMP activity. The GUI was running ok and so was syslog.

There seems to be a fundamental problemn with 3beta6 in that it randomly stops pinging. It appears that everything is ok and working however if you inspect the timeplots for ping response the timeline has stopped. Also devices stay in the state they were at when the dude stopped pinging them. SNMP a...

Uldis, actually I have had to back out of 3.5 back to 2.2 I had a strange problem occur with two very stable 530's running 2.9.1 It happened twice after I had upgraded to 3.5 that they locked up at 100% CPU. I could not identify why, the only thing that had changed was upgrading the Dude. I have now...

I have loaded V3Beta5 and it's looking good. One small bug is that RouterOS registration table isn't showing the Tx/Rx rate for some reason. Is there a work around or is it a bug?

Thanks Uldis, is it likely to be a feature in a future release as it is a fairly basic requirement that most network assurance systems provide, Nagios for example. At the moment I have to put a new dude instance up for each different user view.

I have just upgraded to V3beta4 and noticed some strange behaviours that were not there in V2.2 1) When trying to add a probe, if you click on "type", the box drops and closes again immediately so you can't select anything. 2) Device tree doesn't nest correctly 3) Strange behaviours in the...

Can someone help me with a way to achieve seperate user views. I have a number of network maps under a top level map. I want to be able to limit an admin to view only one of the submaps and not be able to navigate anywhere else or change parameters. I suspect this may be possible with panels but can...

Can someone please help me with the following problem. I am using the web caching capability in 2.9.38 and on the surface it is working fine. However when using the cache we are not getting the throughput I would expect. In investigating this further I have discovered although the client PC is set t...

Can someone help me with this problem please. We have a Mikrotik router in front of a high speed ADSL service with Web Proxy enabled. This appears to work fine and generate 10Mbps download speeds. The issue is that with the Web proxy enabled the upstream connection rises to around 10% of the downstr...

Dude is running very well on my machine however has anyone seen a problem where ping times gradually increase over time. On all the devices being monitored ping times gradually increase. The only thing that appears to reset this is rebooting the machine. At the start a device will be around 3ms resp...

Please can someone advise me on the following problem. I have a simple 5.8ghz bridged link between 2 MT 532's using WDS which is working fine. I want to bandwidth manage all data between these two devices to a maximum of 2Mb in each direction. I have applied a simple Queue to the station-wds device ...

Thank you for your reply. Do you know if there are any rules about which interfaces you should apply the IP address to when bridging. From your reply I am assuming that in fact the bridge should have the IP address and not ether1. Is that correct. Thanks Nigel

Can someone help me with this problem please. Whenever I try and configure bridge ports adding either an ethernet port or a wireless port I invariably lose contact with a MT 535. This is happening on multiple boxes with different version of 2.9 including the latest. The process goes as follows: I as...

Eric thank you so much for such a comprehensive reply, this is very helpful. I am actually migrating a complex network over to a new VLAN switched based configuration and was considering bridging as an interim step. However I have decided given your input that it will be much simpler to go straight ...

Thanks Tom, I have made some progress here as I have now got routing between VLAN's working but I cannot get them to bridge. The cisco is straightforwardly configured as an 802.1Q trunk port connected to ether1 on the MT and works fine when routing VLANS. I have two VLAN's configured on the switch, ...

I believe I am trying to do something very simple but cannot for some reason get it to work. I have a MT 532 linked via ether1 to a 802.1Q trunk port on a cisco 2900 switch . I have tried every variant of setting VLAN ID's on the MT but cannot get the MT to respond to pings on the trunk port. Ideall...

Please can you help me understand the Y axis on graph plots. I am currently successfully retrieving the RX Signal strength via snmp and testing this against a fixed parameter. However if I look at the history graph I cannot make sense of numbers on the Y axis. Given the number being returned is vary...
