Что нового в RouterOS v6.0rc8 (4 февраля 2013г. 13:25):

• ppp, pppoe, pptp, l2tp, sstp - only 2 change mss mangle rules are created for all ppp interfaces;
• wireless - fixed AES encryption speed issues (upgrade suggested);
• dhcpv6 server - handle info requests;
• webfig - compressed all html resource files, speeds up opening of webfig page;
• console - reduced width of address column in `/user print`;
• simple queues requires target arg to be specified when adding;
• do not count packets for unknown protocols as rx_dropped;
• snmp - provide POE info;
• improved cpu usage reporting on CCR boards;
• improved interface reading performance;
• changed CLI interface order - first are ethernets, second wireless, third everything else. Within group interfaces are ordered by name;
• interfaces are deleted much faster, could be bottleneck on systems with many ppp sessions;
• pptp, l2tp, 6to4 tunnel encapsulation/decapsulation now resets packet marks to
  have consistent behavior across tunnels;
• fix simple queue interface matching when doing encapsulation in some tunnel,
  could result in double accounted packets;
• ip/ipv6 firewall has all-ether, all-wireless, all-vlan, all-ppp interface matchers;
• queue limits could be inaccurate for large limits (100M or more).

CAVEAT:

•  bgp peer tcp-md5-key is not supported on CCR (to be fixed in next release).
