This update focuses mainly on stability and bug fixes after some mixed experiences with v7.20.
If you’ve been waiting for a safer release to upgrade — this might be the one to test.

⚙️ Main improvements include:

• Fixed STP issues that caused some bridge ports to be blocked unexpectedly
• EVPN gains basic logging and better MAC mobility handling
• DHCPv6 and SNMP get major stability fixes
• Winbox adds new menus, improved Ethernet stats, and support for higher-speed interfaces (200 Gbps / 400 Gbps)
• System fixes related to .auto.rsc file execution, package fetching, and AppLocker compatibility

💬 Community feedback so far:
As usual, the MikroTik forum is active with real-world reports from users upgrading across different setups:

• ✅ Several users say the update went smoothly on various CCR and RB series devices.
• ⚙️ One user noted improved EVPN and SNMP behavior, with no more random reboots.
• ⚠️ Others still report PPPoE servers on VLANs not functioning properly — many rolled back to v7.19.6.
• 🧩 A few users on bonded interfaces mention an MTU mismatch warning (MTU > L2MTU) after reboot.
• 🕹️ Some Winbox users confirm the new menus work great, while others still see SSH sessions hanging after login on specific models (like CRS328-24P-4S+RM).

Overall, the sentiment is cautiously optimistic — many say v7.20.2 is more stable than 7.20.0, but not entirely flawless.

💡 Upgrade advice:
Before updating:
1️⃣ Backup and export your config files.
2️⃣ Ensure your device won’t lose power mid-upgrade.
3️⃣ Test first if you rely heavily on PPPoE, VLANs, or bonding.
