How much of a clusterfuck is the migration to the 6.41+ switch code in practice?

I had a power blip yesterday and one of my point 2 point antennas (SXT 5-HPacD) which is set to DHCP suddenly got set to 192.167.255.250 when before the router should have been handing it 192.168.1.14. Usually I can connect via the MAC address but that doesn't work. I'm not sure what to try, but I have already powered it off and back on a few times, nothing changes. The actual p2p connection still works fine but does anyone know what might be going on?

Are you vlan tagging management network? If so they're probably native ips now.

It seems like a typo of 192.168 to me. How? Dunno.

I'm a little boggled at this. 192.167.x.x isn't a private network address... I guess the only issue I would think you could come across is if you tried to connect to said address in italy, then it wouldn't work. For future reference, you *really* wanna stick with these: Class A address range (16 million ish ip's): 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.254 Class B address range (1 million ish IP's): 172.16.0.0 - 172.32.255.254 Class C address range (65,500 ish IP's): 192.168.0.0 -192.168.255.254 Any ranges within those IP ranges I listed, and you will have no routing problems externally from your network.

Everything else on my network is behaving as normal and the 2nd antenna p2p antenna has the correct IP which is just 192.168.1.64. I had the 1st antenna set to 192.168.1.63 via DHCP. It's freakin odd! Right now i can't connect to the thing in any way even though it is still working as the p2p link.

Add a secondary IP to your machine on that subnet and connect to it. Although I thought the Mac telnet stuff on tik worked in these situations. Are you going to the correct mac?

Am I understanding it right that you have a device that is no longer asking for network configuration via DHCP and is instead using an incorrect static IP address for no reason and is also not accessible via MAC address connection using Winbox (is that what you refer to by "connect"?). If so, sounds like your power blip did some damage to the device. Nuke and pave it and see if it works - if not, trash it.

Quick question. I swear I WAS able to connect winbox with the Mac address on both my p2p antennas, now I can't. The one antenna that has its correct DHCP IP on my subnet can be connected via IP no problem but not Mac. About the only thing I can think that changed was I use a 48 Port (used) HP Procurve switch. Is there something that might be causing this to fail on that switch. I just have it set default basically.

Is there something that might be causing this to fail on that switch. I just have it set default basically. I know I had dumb and lovely advice before (because I'm illiterate and didn't read your full post, apologies) Technically, if you're able to connect to this thing via an IP address, and you're just connecting via a single switch, something in the chain knows this thing's MAC address.. If your antenna is connected to the switch you can log into your procurve, you should be able to check the arp table on the switch (show arp or something similar) and check the MAC address of the antenna in winbox vs. whatever the arp table on the switch thinks the MAC address is. At the end of the day, if both your endpoints are connected to the switch without a router or something similar in between, they're communicating with ethernet frames (and hence MAC addresses) regardless. Do you have all your configs saved? I think at this point the nuke and pave advice would be pretty much the way I'd go as well.

thebigcow posted:How much switch stuff do you have configured? Not a huge amount; I have a 951g in the fairly typical "home router/ap" config. From memory there's four gige ports in a switch group and mtu is set as high as I can on the lan (~4kb).

I am sure it doesn’t communicate software wise using layer 2. If you’re in the same layer 2 domain you can try and change your workstations address so it is in the bogus subnet with the device. But that also presumed that there will be no jacked up ACLs or other configured or broken items that will block connectivity:

But that also presumed that there will be no jacked up ACLs or other configured or broken items that will block connectivity: I thought everything crossing the switch was encapsulated in frames? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If you don't want to check your arp table on the switch, you could always check it against what you've got on your OS you've got winbox on, run an arp -a and check the IP against the MAC address, it'll look something like this: 192.168.0.1 d4-ca-6d-08-10-fd dynamic 192.168.0.10 00-0c-29-88-38-9f dynamic 192.168.0.229 54-60-09-f3-1f-12 dynamic 192.168.0.247 48-d6-d5-70-ef-5c dynamic 192.168.0.253 00-18-dd-32-1c-80 dynamic 192.168.0.255 ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff static Might help you narrow stuff down anyway, since you can connect via IP and not via MAC address.

zennik posted:have you tried just connecting to that MAC using winbox? It might not show up in neighbors but still be connectable. Yes many times. I'm going to connect a computer directly to the AP to see if that works via MAC and Winbox. It does show up in Winbox but I am unable to connect. Based on the weird IP address, it kinda looks like a bit or 2 flipped in the config.

redeyes posted:Huh, thanks I need to check this. This is why when I get stock firmware I plug into ether2 and connect via Winbox/MAC. Then I tell the router to do a full system wipe with no backup config: /system reset-configuration skip-backup=yes no-defaults=yes caps-mode=no keep-users=no Then you can login via Winbox/MAC on any port, including ether1. Basically you wanna wipe a Mikrotik to a clean slate before working on it-- if you do an /export it should show almost nothing after a full wipe.

So my saga of the odd IP address on a point 2 point antenna is solved. On my network I have a couple HAP Lites in bridge/AP mode for wifi access points. One of the things blew a gasket (I have no idea what really happened), and turned its DHCP server on with corrupt data. I was checking network packets and saw rough DHCP stuff flying around. Aaaand onto my next problem.. It's loving weird, my network has been chugging along with no problems until a recent power blip and then nothing but bugs. Anyhow NOW my RB951G-2HnD is rebooting itself every hour'ish with these kind of messages: system error critical - router was rebooted without a proper shutdown kernel failure in previous boot I'm just not sure how to try and fix this. [edit] figured out how to revert to 6.40.8 (bugfix) and... nope still crashing. Going to have to nuke the setup and try again I guess. [final edit] cpu was overclocked somehow, set back to 600mhz, done redeyes fucked around with this message at 03:01 on May 21, 2018 |

Weird frequent reboots are usually (in my experience) power supply or flash chips going bad. Although bad flash usually also manifests as configs disappearing.

This VPNFilter thing reminded me that somebody was trying to tell me that they didn't need to worry about their firewall vendor closing shop and nobody else taking over support and updates for the product, because if a port wasn't open then the device couldn't be exploited. He also claims to be flown around by one of the world's largest telecoms companies to give keynote talks about firewalls, though no evidence of that exists in anywhere that Google can index.

We are highly certain that this malware was installed on these devices through a vulnerability in MikroTik RouterOS software, which was already patched by MikroTik in March 2017. Simply upgrading RouterOS software deletes the malware, any other 3rd party files and closes the vulnerability. Let us know if you need more details.

Thanks Ants posted:I feel sorry for people mashing “update” in RouterOS and just expecting everything to carry on working. meh... sometimes you're the ip, sometimes you're the tables. I feel bad for the people who just inherited a mess of poorly implemented mikrotik as edge devices in some shoddy small business network architecture who have absolutely no idea what they're doing and have a boss who caught wind of the article, take it upon himself to winbox into all of said devices and mash update buttons without notifying anyone beneath him(or her.) Also MikroTik did cover this like 3 months ago, so I feel like that's enough lead time to have sorted things out, no?

I asked this somewhere else but no response yet-- So the hEX and hEX S have an overall max power PoE of 5W/11W respectively, but the hAP AC has 17W. The cAP AC and wAP AC are listed as 13W/12W- does this mean those APs won't work on the hEX units?

Are those cAP and wAP AC power consumption figures including powering a device on their PoE out ports?

It has always lived behind my firewall [edit] Well that is loving nice, its got an unknown default password now, after a reset. I did the 6.43r23 firmware.
