same problem on CCR2116-12G-4S+ RouterOS 7.15 #error exporting "/tool/graphing" (timeout) #error exporting "/tool/graphing/interface" (timeout) #error exporting "/tool/graphing/resource" (timeout) there is a SIGILL and SIGSEGV in graphing code: 2023.06.02-22:28:10.19@2:...

On my CCR2116-12G-4S+ with RouterOS 7.15 graphing works after router reboot but totally stops working after some time.
All tabs in graphing become empty, changing any settings takes forever and nothing happens.
/tool/graphing/print command in terminal also halts until ctrl+c is pressed.

After wasting so much time I found out that 951Ui-2HnD port bonding is buggy. I was just testing on this device, but on RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN or CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+ it works with no problem. for anyone facing similar issues remember some features may not work well on lower end devices. thank you Mikrotik

I bonded two ports on 951Ui-2HnD 6.49.1 and centos 8.5 on dl380 g9 which is directly connected to the router, but there are lots of dropped packets. both links are ok in single mode. # /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 BONDING_OPTS="mode=0 downdelay=0 miimon=100 updelay=0" TYPE=Bo...

We want to design wireless network (hotspot) that covers and provide internet for every point of a big mall with several floor. There is single cable internet cable at the center of each floor. My question is what are the best Mikrotik hardware for this job and which aspects of device matters here? ...

You are correct, but the problem is DNS server is not usable as a proxy server. Anyway having this option would not hurt anyone.

alli

We are using Mikrotik CHR as a firewall and its DNS Server as a DNS proxy in our infrastructure. The problem is Mikrotik DNS Server reports it's TTL as domain TTL instead of the real one. For example if domain example.com has a TTL of 1 hour after 59 minute it reports 1 Minute as the domain TTL and ...

you must srcnat traffic going to gateways, it's easy for gateways with master interface, but for gateways inside the bridge you must srcnat to router ip address inside the bridge (usually 192.168.88.1) by checking the connection mark, so the internal gateway respond to router instead of directly to ...

A good client wouldn't query unknown names again and again. Then we can handle the bad client in the firewall. Actually a lot of repetitive queries for names that do not exist are made; probably even more than for repeated queries of valid names. That is the reason that failed lookups are cached as...

alli

Good client wouldn't send nonsense queries either. And if you could handle the bad client in firewall then, why not now? :) Because before handling it, DNS cache would be filled with junks, and also there is no way to flush cache selectively. Anyway I don't see any reason to cache unresolved names.

alli

Does that mean, you would like your mikrotik to open connection to another DNS and do the resolve again and again, even if it know that it cant be resolved? Such approach opens plenty of other attack options. Caching is normal. It is up to you to set up cache. For example you can lower maximum cach...

You can have one PPPoE connection over two link using MLPPP (https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:M ... iple_links), but you can not combine two PPPoE.

Max-Limit is the total bandwidth for all clients in this queue, so if one is using 4M others get nothing. You should configure pcq-upload-default and pcq-download-default in queue-types and probably set Max-Limit to unlimited or required bandwidth if there are other queues. in pcq-upload-default and...

Alli - I believe you should find out which device in your network is causing that. Entries like this usually appear, when DNS request cannot be resolved. Maybe there is some rogue software trying to scan stuff? If you start logging DNS, it might help you. There are more than 200 client in our netwo...

DNS Cache stores a lot of junk names with type unknown and ip address of 0.0.0.0. As you can see in attached image there are more than 40000 of them, they occupy all dns cache and decrease system performance.

On what platform do you use the client?
Windows, linux, Mikrotik ...

Mikrotik OpenVPN client itself adds provided DNS addresses by the server to the dynamic DNS servers.

I made this mistake too an I can confirm mikrotik install bundled package again and then uninstalling, disabling, or upgrading package will not work. It's a bug

This is a great feature, when providing server why not client?

Calling :set on variable or array elements without any value seems to work like unset (v6.42.3), check this:

:global a {b=1}
/environment print
:set ($a->"b")
/environment print
:set $a
/environment print

The stupid recursive routes are normally there to allow you to check that via a given WAN link, you can reach not only the ISP's infrastructure but also the real destinations further in the internet. Without them, your failover will not detect a problem between the ISP and the internet. That's not ...

I assigned my failover ping IPs (4.2.2.1|4.2.2.2|4.2.2.3) directly to the PPPOE connection. Huh, that is unexpected...

How changing the remote IP help with same gateway problem? Those IPs will be your new gateways, and the secret is that you set different IPs :) Well, you may also try gateway=5.202.112.166%p-pish1 and gateway=5.202.112.166%p-pish2, but if they change for some reason - you'll need to change your rou...

Create separate Profile for each connection, set Remote IP to something you want - this will override the address that's given to you by the server.

I have 3 pppoe connection on 3 ethernet, 2 of them have one gateway (Same ISP). I want to load balance the traffic between them with failover so if one ISP is down the other is used.

I wonder how Mikrotik Hotspot distinguish sessions after user is logged in? I mean when a user login to hotspot how mikrotik knows traffic is coming from his device?
