I was thinking the same thing on the CRS' Andrew...at least feature wise. I'm fine with a low power CPU as long as it has basic features like DHCP snooping and dynamic ARP inspection. Honestly these are basic industry standard features for switches. Perhaps something like openTRILL in place of STP. I see the new SFP+ models as pretty good options for the server environment where those features aren't required. I'm sure they will make great media converters, though :) Greg On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 8:00 PM, <public-request@talk.mikrotik.com.au>wrote:

Hi Folks,
I've been doing some work using API for various remote/centralised configuration push applications, and I've come across a surprising problem.
Surprising only because I never realised that I didn't know how to do it until I decided to try! :-D
Think winbox - we can enter a value against some firewall filter attribute, say 'src-port' for example, and then if we decide we don't want it any more, we can click that little 'up arrow' to null the value for that variable. We can see the difference when using ip firewall filter print:
With dst-port specified
1 ;;; test1
chain=input action=accept protocol=tcp src-address=1.2.3.0/24
dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 dst-port=25
After 'nulling' that dst-port value
1 ;;; test1
chain=input action=accept protocol=tcp src-address=1.2.3.0/24
dst-address=0.0.0.0/0
My question is how to do that in shell? I'm baffled! :-}

Duh, there it is!
/ip firewall filter unset 1 dst-port
I spoke too soon.
(or is it 'asked to soon' ;-)
Cheers!

Yes! The low CPU spec is a bit of a surprise to me too :-o
My guess is that they figured that as a switch, most of the forwarding is done by the switch chips and so powerful cpu is not important. Looking at typical load on other CRS switches in production at the moment, the routing capabilities are not used a great deal - just with one routed port as an internet gateway perhaps. In campus or enterprise switch application, cpu is probably doing little more than management tasks, so 400mhz is perfectly adequate ;-)
We have a few units already on order - hope to receive them by end of next week! :)
Cheers!
Mike.

Hi,
first non announcement post!
Has anyone seen the new CRS226-24G-2SplusIN http://routerboard.com/CRS226-24G-2SplusIN -- thoughts?
I'm working on a larger scale project that's was leaning towards a full Mikrotik environment but wasn't possible because of the missing SFP+ ports on the current CRS series. From initial view, this new CRS seems to be lacking in grunt although the newer CPU. Nor a rackmount case?
I have a two of the first CRS125s and they seem to be serving me well, although the software is still lacking a little..
I wonder how long till our local friends Duxtel will have stock :)
Andrew
