State of 3G/4G fallback on MikroTik?
by Karl Auer 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

We need to quote to a client for two routers capable of running a VPN between two sites - easy, that's a MikroTik. But they want a fallback to 3G/4G so that the site that falls back keeps Internet access AND so that the VPN keeps running. What's the state of MikroTik 3G/4G fallback? Last I looked it seemed very roll-your-own, and supported only a few very specific dongles... Ideally it would work like the (vastly more expensive) Merakis and just fail everything over to the secondary link if the primary fails, where "fail" would be either a ping test or interface down. That said, I'm OK with a solution that needs more work, as long as once done it is set-and-forget. Any pointers?

Axiom Cyber Shield

Hi all, After seeing their presentation at the Melbourne MUM, we've been having a look at Axiom Cyber Shield. Is anyone on here using it and happy to provide some feedback, on-list or off-list? It certainly sounds like a good product, but I only seem to be able to find sales pitch information, not unbiased reviews.

RPKI Validation
by Christopher Hawker 17 Sep '20

17 Sep '20

Hey Everyone, I’m looking to implement RPKI route validation into a new network, on which I’ll be using the CCR1009-8G-1S-1S+ and CRS354-48P-4S+2Q+RM (excellent hardware BTW, and a long time coming for the switch)... What I’m wanting to find out, is how is it possible? I’m currently using v6.47.3. I did try 7.1beta2 and BGP is completely broken in Winbox. On a side note, I’m surprised it made it to beta with such a critical component being broken, however that’s a discussion for a different thread. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Christopher Hawker
