Changelog 6.18 – MikroTik Changelog Tracker

Component	Change
api	use the same syntax for property values as is used in 'print detail' output, with the exception of numbers, that are not shown with suffixes (K/M/G/T or bitrate) and are not contracted or separated into digit groups, and "yes"/"no" values that continue to be reported as "true"/"false".
console	print command does not try to reuse item numbers assigned by previous invocations of 'print' when doing 'print where' or 'print follow', items are numbered consecutively starting from '0'.
console	fix compact export of some partially modified configuration values;
console	show internal numbers in the form returned by 'find' (like *9A0F) instead of "(unknown)" when configuration refers to deleted items. This change also applies to API.
console	values of type 'nil' were returning 'nil' as result of most operations. Now it compares less than all values except 'nil' and 'nothing', and compares inequal to all values except 'nil'. This was changed to make 'print where' and 'find where' more useful. An example. Previously the following command /ip route print where routing-mark!=nosuch Would not print routes that had no value for 'routing-mark' set, because (nil != "nosuch") was equal to nil. Now it evaluates to 'true', and this command will also print all routes that have no 'routing-mark' value set.
console	when exporting to file, use name ending in '.in_progress', and rename when export finishes;
console export	put qutes around item names that start with a digit;
general	bridge setups sometimes could crash on CCR devices;
general	fixed port flapping in 1G mode on sfp-sfpplus1 on CRS226;
general	fixed SXT ac model losing it's interface if changing regulatory settings in "routerboard" menu
ipsec	fix addition of default policy template;
l2tp	fixed problem on CCR where server responded with wrong source address;
safe mode	do not allow user with less permissions to disrupt active safe mode;
sntp client	added support for dns lookup of ntp servers;
sstp	report TLS encryption as well;
