Re: 7.16 logging email not sent immediately after boot

FYI - SUP-170853

Hello,
Thank you for the report.

We were able to reproduce your issue in our labs.
Our developers have already considered this issue, and it will be fixed in future releases, but unfortunately, I cannot share any ETA yet.

Best regards

Re: 7.16 logging email not sent immediately after boot

I sent the following to support@mikrotik.com - will update if I get a response. Hello Mikrotik, Logging to email for "critical" topics is broken since 7.16 - it worked in 7.15.3. I have this issue on all of my devices hAPac^2, hAPac^3, Metal52ac, and RB750Gr3. I've reset my RB750Gr3 to the...

Re: 7.16 logging email not sent immediately after boot

Still broken with 7.16.1. The critical log email is when NTP gets a new time from an external source, so the network and dns ae up. With the exact same configuration file, the email was sent for the NTP time change after boot with 7.15.3. This broke on update to 7.16. Both manual and logging trigger...

7.16 logging email not sent immediately after boot

Hello, With 7.16, I am no longer getting log emails being sent immediately after boot. I have logging setup to send any critical topic to echo, email and remote. With 7.15.3 and earlier, every reboot I would get an email (and syslog, and echo to console) for the ntp time change. With 7.16 the email ...

Re: Wireguard use Hostname in endpoint

It's all in the whitepaper https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard.pdf - which is admittedly a pretty heavy read.

Re: Wireguard use Hostname in endpoint

It can't be a 2 minute timeframe to do nothing, but probably the 5 min could be reduced to 4 min (with the script scheduled every 2 minutes); or it could be set to 185s with the script scheduled every 65s. This is my thought experiment determining these numbers: Assume handshake is done and data sen...

Agreed. That's simpler and clearer than https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ ... uard-Peers

Re: Wireguard - access to remote LAN

Well, maybe it's not exactly filtering, but it doesn't hurt to think about it as such. If peer's allow-address contains packet's destination address, it will go there, otherwise it won't. Isn't it nice and easy to understand? Yes but it misses the fact that besides matching is also a selection func...

Re: Wireguard - access to remote LAN

I was using a subnet IP, and I don't think this is evidence of the value of an IP address as I still have removed it - it's simply an observation that when the IP is removed, the route need to be setup with a preferred source. :D The setup was like this: router A - subnets & addresses10.1.1.1/24...

MikroTik support confirms that the settings are for SFP ports. This RouterOS setting is intended for 1G SFP fiber optic links.

Re: disabling Auto Negotiation on 1000M full [SOLVED]

So maybe the speed settings of 1Gbps / 10Gbps exist for configuring SFP / SFP+ cages (which I see advertised on routers which I don't have)?

I've sent a summary of posts 1 through 5 to the support email as suggested, and will update this thread when I get a response.
