Yes, here are the replies that I finally received from technical support. I have not tested using the pins as inputs yet. The M33 has 2 usable GPIOs (pin3 and pin5), which can be softly pulled both up and down - no external pull-up / down resistors are required. > I simply need to know how to wire t...

m33g - added support for "/system gpio" menu (CLI only);

Could we please, please, please have the documentation for the RBM33G Header and instructions on how to trigger the gpio pins as inputs? (Pull up, pull down, resistor?, etc...)

Did I say PLEASE?

It took over a week to get this reply. I was tempted to try to either "pull up" or "pull down" the pins but I chickened out in fear that I could cook the inputs. I was thinking about trying a 47K resistor inline from pin to ground and then vcc. Hello, Thank you for contacting Mik...

Assume I have a 100Mbs wan and a 1000Mbs lan. Queues would be for the purpose of prioritizing traffic. In this scenario does it make sense to have a "down-stream" queue? If the router, the lan interfaces and lan devices can process and receive data 10 times faster than the wan interface ca...

Thanks to xvo, I installed version 6.48beta48. I can confirm that I am able change DIRECTION on "pin3" to output, change "OUTPUT" from 0 to 1 and read a voltage change on pin 3. I'm not going to attempt to drive the INPUT until I hear back from Mikrotik support. I suspect that a ...

*) m33g - added support for "/system gpio" menu (CLI only);

That's very promising news. Thanks for that. I just emailed support asking for documentation of the IDC header pins on the RBM33G and for the documentation for the /system gpio menu.

For the situation a RB33G is likely to be used in I think the temperature and voltage monitoring is very desirable . I would say it's a necessity. If you aren't using all the ethernet ports you can loop back the TX and RX pairs and check for ethernet link status for your contact closure monitoring....

I am also using RBM33G boards for a project. I am very disappointed that there is no voltage monitoring via /system health, that there are no additional GPIO pins, and that the RTS/CTS/DTR and DSR pins are inactive on the serial ports. Additionally, there is no realistic way to write/read to the ser...

Yes it does when working with variables. String arrays and key, value arrays are another story. Ultimately I was able to solve the problem. Here's how: # Previously defined/assigned string array :global FOinterfaces # Previously defined/assigned key, value array :global FOpingHosts #Convert the stri...

Is it possible to generate a script from a script with variable substitution, something like this: :global myVar1 "ABC" :global myVar2 "DEF" /system script add dont-require-permissions=no name=myScript owner=admin policy=\ ftp,reboot,read,write,policy,test,password,sniff,sensitiv...

You can enable logging for any rule (log=yes, Log checkbox on Action tab in WinBox).

OMG, Awesome!!!!!
Thanks!

Sindy, thanks for your reply.

Yes, one can easily see the count of packets with that command and also in Winbox.

I'm looking for a way to "torch" - see what src and dest IP address, port and protocols are being matched to the rule.

I frequently would like to see packets that are applied to specific firewall rule, mostly a "Deny" rule. Is there any way to accomplish this?

Thanks for that. I believe its the established state that allows this. From the MikroTik wiki: ESTABLISHED - The ESTABLISHED state has seen traffic in both directions and will then continuously match those packets. ESTABLISHED connections are fairly easy to understand. The only requirement to get in...

Let's say I have two networks: Computer LAN, 10.10.1.1/24 on ether1 and Camera LAN, 10.10.2.1/24 on ether2 I want to create a firewall rule that only allows traffic from 10.10.2.0/24 (ether2) to 10.10.1.0/24 (ether1) after a connection from ether1 has been initiated to ether2 Another way to say it i...

I hope that you find this information useful. Extremely! Thanks for sharing! Quite a feat given that there is no IDE to correct syntax, debug, step, watch, breakpont, inspect, etc..... You did it old school! One thing that I'm still trying to figure out is how the variables which are setup in memor...

I am trying to make some changes to the scripts. How are you building the RouterSCRIPTS_Installer.rsc file from the source files in the src directory?

I have two EC25-AF (Verizon, AT&T) in a RBM33G. My intention is to use both LTE interfaces plus an ethernet based Internet connection in a failover setup. I don't believe this is going to be possible given the following challenges: 1) The LTE interfaces setup a Dynamic DHCP client entry. The Que...

Would it possible to modify these scripts for use when the WAN IP addresses and gateway addresses are assigned via DHCP?

RMB33G running v7.1beta2 only shows serial0. USB port shows usb2

RBM33G running v6.46.6 shows serial0, serial1 and USB port usb3

Is this a bug?

I power my Routerboards from a battery backed power supply that has dry relay contacts for AC and low battery. I was planning on using the serial port lines DTR/DSR and RTS/CTS to monitor those inputs until I realized that those lines don't exits on the serial port. I'm wondering if either of these ...

I would like to configure two tunnels for a site-to-site VPN with fail-over. Each site has two ISPs. There are two ways I could approach this: 1) Two separate IPIP or GRE tunnels, each with IPSEC, and both members of a bridge. 2) Two separate IPIP or GRE tunnels, no IPSEC, both members of a bridge, ...
