Router Upgrade with OneView™

To follow this step-by-step how-to guide, you must be running OneView™ version 4.4.0-163 (or newer) and be using a supported router.

1. Download the firmware for the MikroTik router.
   
   Optigo OneView™ has been extensively tested with the MikroTik RB4011 router running firmware 6.45.8. The firmware file for the RB4011 can be downloaded in the MikroTik Downloads Archive in the "Release 6.45.8" collapsed menu, under the filename routeros-arm-6.45.8.npk.
   
   Note it is -arm-, not -arm64-. The RB4011 will not recognize files with the incorrect CPU architecture.
   
   Alternatively you may download the latest firmware offered by MikroTik by visiting the MikroTik Downloads page.
   
   
   
   
   
2. Login to OneView™ with an administrator account.
   
   
   
3. Navigate to the MikroTik router management GUI by adding the following path to the URL: /#!/customized/routergui
   Example URL: http://10.2.21.31/#!/customized/routergui
   
   
   
   
   
4. Click "Open GUI". You will be provided with the proxy URL and router credentials.
   (Note: The credentials shown on the page will expire after 10 minutes. If at any time you lose access, simply follow steps 2 to 7 to begin a new session. Credentials will change each time)
   
   
   
   
   
5. Click on the proxy URL hyperlink. For instance, http://10.2.21.31:8081.
   
   
   
6. Enter the username and password provided to you on OneView™. Then click "Login".
