  • Running MikroTik RouterOS in a virtual machine is easy! See our previous video how to install it, in this video - what is the free license, what is the limitation, and how to obtain a full license. Is your Virtual machine running slow, just 1 mbit? Maybe it's a license issue. Watch till the end and see how to do it properly.

    Please never do subscription licensing for your products! It separates you from everyone

      This is the most underrated comment here. All the industry is pushing subscriptions, you are our favorite because the lack of subscriptions. Please don’t change!

    I've been using Mikrotik for the past 12 years and loving it but only now has it finally dawned on me how useful VM installs of RouterOS can be.
    Thanks Normunds!

    word of caution - never press the "Generate new ID" - you wont be able to register the device with new id in your mikrotik account(even with a paid license) and you would need to do a full CHR reinstall.

    Thanks for the info! Is there a route to license CHR where access to the Mikrotik license server is not possible?
    Or in this case is it best to just use the x86 iso install with 'traditional' licensing?

    • @mikrotik
      @mikrotik  Před rokem +5

      Better would be to connect the VM to insternet, license it, then disconnect it. Then you can move the VM to other place.
      ISO has other drawbacks, like different drivers and less RAM support.

      Of course, but that is not limited by license. WiFi and LTE interfaces are naturally also not supported. But also, not due to license limitation.

    talking about licensing why don't you respect the spirit of the GNU General Public License and share the entire source code of RouterOS which is mostly based on free open-source software such as Linux ?

    • @mikrotik
      @mikrotik  Před rokem +3

      We do! Have you tried asking or looking for it?

    • @boumarc
      @boumarc Před rokem +1

      ​@@mikrotik yes I did try, and after several repeated requests and quite a bit of time all I got were a set of useless patches. If you respected the spirit of the GPL, which is about software freedom, I would be able to download corresponding source code for every RouterOS release, and be able to modify and rebuild usable binaries out of it which would be useful in many cases. For example, I recently encountered a pppoe incompatibility, and asked support for a fix, but they refused. The problem would be trivial to fix if proper source code would be available.
