Documentation updates - May 21, 2026

Summary of documentation changes made on May 21, 2026.

Bridging & Switching​

  • Bridging & Switching: Restored the illustrations across the whole Bridge topic — diagrams on the switch chip features, VLAN, QoS, CRS1xx/2xx examples, layer 2 misconfiguration, spanning tree, and wireless VLAN trunk pages now render again.
  • Switch chip features: Fixed the feature comparison table footnotes, which previously did not render. The notes on bandwidth limiting in RouterOS v7, Shared VLAN Learning on the 2048-entry host table, and limited Switch menu VLAN support now appear below the table. Several inline "Caution"/"Important" paragraphs were converted into proper admonition blocks.
  • Quality of Service: Fixed the broken footnote markers in the switch chip QoS table covering max-fill statistics, current-value reporting, and unavailable statistics on 98CX8410.
  • Marvell Prestera switch chip features: Corrected several malformed admonition blocks so the L3 hardware offloading note, the egress-rate/storm-rate hardware limitation on 10Gbps ports, and the switch ACL modification warning display correctly. Also reworded the inter-VLAN routing and DHCP server notes.

Containers​

  • Containers: Expanded the stop-signal description to explain that different Linux signals allow graceful shutdown, immediate termination, or application-specific actions, and tidied the memory-max entry.

Documentation updates - May 20, 2026

Summary of documentation changes made on May 20, 2026.

Getting Started​

  • RouterOS licensing: Restructured the licensing documentation. The x86 licensing content was merged into a single x86 licensing page instead of a separate sub-page, and the accompanying screenshots were reorganized.

Containers​

  • Containers: Documented passing the serial terminal through to a container with devices=serial0:"", including a note that the RouterOS serial console under /system/console must be freed first.

Wireless​

  • Nv2: Reorganized the protocol overview into continuous prose by removing redundant sub-headings, and tidied the synchronization and configuration example sections.
  • Spectral scan: Corrected the formatting of the range option list and downgraded the unsupported-chipset callout from a danger to a warning admonition.
