This container is designed to run on alternate platforms (eg. ARM/ARM64) and to facilitate a simple netinstall experience
Name | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
NETINSTALL_ADDR | 192.168.88.1 | Client IP Address for Netinstall to assign |
NETINSTALL_RESET | <null> |
Add -r to Netinstall arguments (https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/Netinstall#Netinstall-InstructionsforLinux) |
NETINSTALL_ARCH | mipsbe | CPU Architecture to use when selecting npk (Optional) |
LOAD_VERSION | <null> |
RouterOS version to use when selecting npk (Optional) |
NETINSTALL_NPK | routeros-${NETINSTALL_ARCH}-${LOAD_VERSION}.npk" |
NPK for Netinstall to use |
Note: The -k
and -s
netinstall arguments are not implemented yet
With the implementation of containers in ROSv7, we can now enjoy a netinstall experience from another Mikrotik
Testing has been completed with a RB4011 (v7.6b8) running the container to flash a RB2011
The below steps will create a container linking to ether5
, and set netinstall to load the routeros-mipsbe-6.48.6.npk
NPK file
- Enable containers and install package (refer wiki)
- Create folder
images
underdisk1
- Upload npk files to images folder
- Create veth interface
/interface veth add address=192.168.88.6/24 gateway=192.168.88.1 name=veth1
- Create bridge
/interface bridge add name=dockers
- Add veth and physical port to bridge
/interface bridge port add bridge=dockers interface=veth1 /interface bridge port add bridge=dockers interface=ether5
- Create mount to contain npk files
/container mounts add dst=/app/images name=images src=/disk1/images
- Create enviroment set, and specify npk file to use
/container envs add key=NETINSTALL_NPK name=NETINSTALL value=routeros-mipsbe-6.48.6.npk
- Create container
/container add remote-image=semaja2/mikrotik-netinstall:latest envlist=NETINSTALL interface=veth1 logging=yes mounts=images workdir=/app
TODO
Due to limitations with Docker, the container can only work via the --network=host
network parameter, as such this is only useful on Linux as this driver is not available for Windows/MacOS
The host networking driver only works on Linux hosts, and is not supported on Docker Desktop for Mac, Docker Desktop for Windows, or Docker EE for Windows Server.
