14 DAY TRIAL // MikroTik has rolled out a new firmware package targeted at pretty much all of its products, namely version 6.38 RC 51, which resolves CAP upgrade when separate wireless packages are used (issue introduced in 6.37), and includes several other changes.
Specifically speaking, this release fixes the console’s multi-argument value unset, the hotspot nat rule port settings, and the action frame handling for WDS nodes, as well as adds IPSec service to the console, improves IKEv1/IKEv2 support, and moves empty IPv6 pool error message to the error topic.
In addition to that, compatible devices will be able to make generated policies always unique, show active flags when the policy has active SA, report bonding speed, as well as auto-negotiate as much SAs as needed (no more).
Moreover, this build also adds hardware STP functionality for CRS devices and small Atheros switch chips, fixes DNS server assignment to the client in certain situations, and adds several other changes, as highlighted in the Release Notes below.
When it comes to supported architectures, MikroTik has provided its users with separate update packages suitable for Tile, x86, MIPS-BE, SMIPS, ARM, PPC, and MMIPS variants. As for installation, it would be a good idea to check your device’s user manual to make sure you use the correct update method.
With this in mind, download MikroTik RouterOS Firmware 6.38 RC 51, apply it on your device, and come back as often as possible to stay “updated one minute ago.”
