Hi All,

We are upgrading a router from an RB2011L to a Cloud Core 1016-12G
We plan to copy the config (manually) from one to the other and check there are no problems, before starting to do anything differently, so as to minimise any potential downtime to end users.

We're currently using both switch groups in the RB2011; however I see that the CC1016 doesn't seem to have switch groups.

Whats the best way to migrate to the 1016 given this?

Bridge...

Bridge is the way to go

The CCR 1016-12G does not contain a switch chip. Each of the 12 ports is directly connected to the CPU.
Simply add ports 2~12 to a bridge, use port 1 for the wan.

/interface bridge
add l2mtu=1590 name=lan0
/interface bridge port
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether2
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether3
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether4
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether5
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether6
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether7
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether8
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether9
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether10
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether11
add bridge=lan0 interface=ether12

Hope this clears it up a bit more.
