I was going to say are you using the queue's to shape NBN connections. I once considered a CCR as a pppoe gateway for an NBN access. But could not get it to shape quickly enough to keep bellow NBN's policing. Mind you haven't tried since 6.8 i think. Matt On 12/11/2014 6:22 pm, Paul Julian wrote:
We have some around running about 1.2GBit/s throughput across a couple of ports, like 800M transit, a couple of hundred meg peering through a few providers, BGP, etc and they are stable, then we have a couple running as LNS's running anywhere from 50 PPPOE users to about 950, all with queues.
The routers seem to be stable, however queues are still a problem, they just don't seem to control the traffic as well as they are supposed to, unfortunately even after the latest improvements MT have made I still think there are issues.
I agree with Matt, you do need to think a bit before you change something, there are bugs, and they do break sometimes, but keeping them as simple as you can and leaving them alone when they are working OK is the best recipe for reliability.
We are running most on 6.21 at the moment, one thing I enjoyed was replacing an old RB1100AH with a CCR 16 core and the CPU went from averaging 85% to 4%, pretty amazing, and that's a super busy router doing lots of OSPF, BGP, vlans, etc.
We also use a lot of routers as PPPOE LNS's in the basements of buildings, they happily run day in day out managing queues and OSPF etc for a dozen or more users typically, very reliable at this.
Off topic a bit, but I wanted to ask is anybody using Mikrotik for NBN LNS termination in a DHCP modem and if so how are you handling multiple AVC's for each customer and DHCP to them ? I was thinking that just bridging them was the best option but a wary of doing that, would appreciate any comments on the design required if anybody is willing to share, and once you get there any good suggestions on IP accounting packages which can dump the IP accounting info from the router into MySQL ?

Cool, I would like to push these puppies a but more.
Problem is my BIG traffic is big single tcp stream, think vmware backups..
I think I found this list from AUSNOG
Are people using partitioning ? I have 4 setup 1 current 2 last working 3 copy of last working :) 4 original working
I haven't had to fall back on this yet, but I wonder all those people with reboot issues would it be solved with having partitions
Also I not there is an upgrade to the rom as well and 6.21.1 doesn't work well with .18 the new one it .19 I think

I agree with Matt,
Additional multi-core support that comes with each release makes each version just a little bit better.
Many issues we've been following for quite some time have gone from hot topic to quietly abandoned since about 6.18+
I can't be sure that they are all 'fixed', but no news is often good news for those kinds of topics.
Perhaps others can offer some more detail on those - in particular: "how are queues working out since recent version updates were intended to address some of them?"
Cheers, Mike.

Hi
I have a few CCR1036-8G-2S+'s
I am running 6.19 and am quite happy with it.
The mikrotik boys are quite good at putting out lots of new versions.
1) What do most other people do with patching, I am not looking forward to patching every month
2) Is anyone else running 6.20 or 6.21 (6.21.1)
I also have a few VM's
Things I am interested in OSPF, BGP, firewall. No wireless for me.
