MikroTik

Hi all, in what board should I report a bug in the iOS mobile Mikrotik app?

If here is OK, here's what I encounter.

I get access to a router from my up-to-date iOS device with the latest version of the Mikrotik app, while using a Wireguard VPN. So far, so good.

I then want to add another peer, and upon entering the "Allowed address" and saving it, the field shows a "0.0.0.0" address.
Since I have a working peer set up that also shows "0.0.0.0" in that field in the app, perhaps that is normal behaviour. Strange, but normal.

Then lastly I press the (save) check mark and I get a notification "no allowed-address set", and the peer will not be created.

If this is a limitation of the mobile app, I can accept that - but then WHY would the option be available?

Can someone duplicate this error? Does it do the same on Android?

Thanks in advance for your time.

Not wrong. I get same 0.0.0.0 and also that it still won't save the peer on iOS to RouterOS 7.17beta4.

It seems the field does not know it's a ip-prefix type, since it should default should be 0.0.0.0/0, not just plain "0.0.0.0". So, I think, when it tries to save it, RouterOS rejects it since the field is not a prefix. But net result same "no allowed-address" error.

But I'd recommend you file this at help.mikrotik.com as a BUG - Mikrotik does not always review every forum post and/or may miss the clear bug here.

I got my answer, pretty quick, via email from support@mikrotik.com. Thanks for the quick response!
