Devolutions Server + Gateway with Mikrotik Winbox

Hello!

 

We have always been using Devolutions RDM through the years running on a Windows Server which we connected to with remote desktop. Lately we have started looking into Devolutions Server and Gateway in a way to run RDM directly on our local clients, and still be able to access all our customers devices through the server.

 

I have installed and configured Server and Gateway running on a fresh new database, not to interfere with our old RDM workspace database. I have got it working with a few devices, and now I’m trying to add Mikrotik Winbox devices. I have set up a gateway tunnel object with a TCP-listener like 127.0.0.1:18291 -> 10.0.0.1:8291 and added the Winbox object I RDM as host: 127.0.0.1:18291 and got it working.

 

My problem is that we have over 550 Mikrotik devices and using this TCP-listener for each object is very tedious. Is there a simpler way to use only one Gateway tunnel object that all Winbox objects inherits? I started to look at using a dynamic port on the TCP-listener like this 127.0.0.1:0 -> 10.0.0.1:8291, but I notice that Winbox cannot pick up the dynamic port at all and fails to connect.

 

Is there a simpler way to do this?

 

Also a question, is it correct to set host 127.0.0.1:18291 on the Winbox object? It will look strange for the user but it works. If we could get it to work with 10.0.0.1 I guess the dynamic port with Winbox would no longer be an issue.
