[AusNOG] Mikrotik Routerboard access

[Joseph Goldman]

Hi Tim,

  #1 sounds like an interesting idea....

  #2, OpenWRT/busybox from my understanding has only been ported to 
certain MIPS-BE based RB's not PPC. I researched it quite heavily 
earlier today :(

  #3, passwords are accross the board on all management interfaces from 
my understanding of ROS, i've tried admin / blank on ssh, winbox and 
telnet. Haven't attempted rs232 yet, not a bad idea to do so if maybe 
the session was left logged in or something, time to contact guys on the 
ground!

Thanks,
Joe
