That’s insane.
I also wonder, if the architecture is switched, funneling VLANs from every AP back to a central mother-of-all-routers, why did they use CCRs rather than switches? All the switching and VLAN stuff can be done in hardware, and the CPU would just be doing control plane stuff.

The problem is that only a single interface allows me to log into them. I'm not super familiar with these CCRs, and I've been pulling teeth trying to figure out how to open it up so I can manage it from any interface. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or give me instruction on how to accomplish that?

If I was the fired ex-admin, all you would need is to find one of the computers I used Winbox on. Even if it's not possible to decrypt the stored passwords, you could Winbox into every Mikrotik and change the password. I guess real men use SSH and the CLI. Oh, and don't store the credentials in their SSH client.

That will find the passwords in the backup file. If these backups contain the "old" OR the "new" password, when you default/restore the backup, the password will be whatever is in that file. -- Butch Evans Training and Support for WISPs 702-537-0979 <tel:702-537-0979> http://store.wispgear.net/ http://www.butchevans.com/ -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team. -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
