Adding virtual disk to CCR2116

Wed Jul 26, 2023 1:01 pm

Hi there , is there any way to add more storage to Mikrotik device CCR2116 , because you know it doesnt have an usb port to add a usb device and the total storage is 128 MB only

I have a synalogy DS220j device as a network sharing drive

is it possible to add this network drive to CCR2116

Yes, you can install the optional package rose-storage and then you can add an NFS share from the Synology.

What is not clear on that only unique line?
/disk add type=nfs nfs-address=192.168.1.1
Oh right... you have to write the IP of your Synology instead of 192.168.1.1,
or set up your network so that Synolgy can use the IP 192.168.1.1,
this way you just have to copy and paste the line, without the difficulty of changing anything inside the line.

Well maybe he also wants to add the sharename like nfs-share=/volume1/mikrotik
But indeed it seems like a "I want to spend no effort, explain to me!" without the corresponding payment.
