    RT-AC86U cfg_server - what is it?

    Ah thanks Colin. Do you reckon 'killall cfg_server' or 'killall -9 cfg_server' will work now then? Or which one would I use? Thanks.

    How and where to shutdown unnecessary services and ports

    Anyway to permanently stop my PC receiving the 7788 UDP packets then if we can't kill the process doing it?

    RT-AC86U cfg_server - what is it?

    Was there ever a command that stopped this issue with the CFG server broadcasting to UDP 7788 ? I see andrei mentions issues even after "`killall -9 cfg_server": "and the log entries show repeated spikes, one even crossing 1100 cfg_server processes!"

    I've stopped IGMP, LLDP, but there is a final multicast medium by the router, via a UDP packet, any idea how to stop that?

    Thank you Dave that's cool. I'll look through it.

    I've stopped IGMP, LLDP, but there is a final multicast medium by the router, via a UDP packet, any idea how to stop that?

    The IP address seems to mean something when I read what this guy said (it's why I brought it up): And that's why I put it there, it has some technical clue to it. The source port is 35556 and the destination port is 7788 for these UDP packets. Rather than trying to make me look a tit, give...

    I've stopped IGMP, LLDP, but there is a final multicast medium by the router, via a UDP packet, any idea how to stop that?

    I've gone on a sterilisation of unnecessary things and that is multicast, as I don't ever plan to use it, it also looks nice on my Wireshark logs seeing all the IGMP, LLDP (and spanning tree protocol) spam gone. My computer looks almost deserted on the network sides with no web browser up (I've...

    How do I use GNUton's fork for my DSL-AX82U please.

    Ok thank you.

    How do I use GNUton's fork for my DSL-AX82U please.

    "My builds are intended to support all features present in the original Merlin firmware." Is the GitHub code for it overlooked by Merlin also, as I see the Github belongs to GNUton? Is the download in the picture composed only of the open source code presented in the open source code for it in...

    How do I use GNUton's fork for my DSL-AX82U please.

    Thank you. Even though it is open source, is this safe? I worry with all the sophistication out there and social engineering. Thanks. Clicking it, opens up a download, how is anyone sure the open source code for it, is in that download link?

    How do I use GNUton's fork for my DSL-AX82U please.

    Hello, I'm stuck, my router is the DSL-AX82U, which only GNUton has a build for. Do I just download the file underlined red and upload it to my router with that file? Thanks.

    How do I automate these two commands with merlin software please?

    Awesome, thanks Dave, I'll give it a go.

    How do I automate these two commands with merlin software please?

    Ok thank you. In that file, how is the command of say, killall mcpd written out? Thanks.

    How to disable router IGMP snooping multicast on AXE16000

    Did you ever find a SSH command you can use with the stock firmware to stop the snooping for good? Is there a script you can use with merlin software? I'm going to set-up merlin software tomorrow, as I found no way to stop LLDP multicast permanently either. I don't mind 2 scripts running on...

    How to disable router IGMP snooping multicast on AXE16000

    Is there anyway companies can data mine this multicast traffic? It seems very convenient to a data marketer. Knowing all devices on the network... when these devices turn on/off... what these devices are... It seems like golden information. For me I want it gone, because there's no telling how...

    How do I turn off LLDP on my Asus router please?

    Ok I tried it, it does work. Except on router restart, which I kind of expected, thinking the stop command is maybe of the same behaviour from something like window's services. Thanks anyway. Shame, as I have the router off every night.

    How do I turn off LLDP on my Asus router please?

    Thanks for trying to help me. I appreciate that. I will try tommorow and get back to you on whether that worked or not. Thanks.

    How do I turn off LLDP on my Asus router please?

    Thank you guys. Me testing it is a risk i'm willling to make. I'm aware of chatgpt errors. I always cross examine it, that's why i also put it here, in hope someone here confirms it or not before i test it. It is correct on some things. I don't mind taking risks. But i will google some things...

    How do I turn off LLDP on my Asus router please?

    I've made lots of tweaks. And they've added up to become obvious. An F1 car has many negligible improvements. There's no telling how something ricochets in the workings of a system via oversights by engineers. If a feature is truly not needed in full then that's one less resource drain and/or...

    How do I turn off LLDP on my Asus router please?

    Ok thank you. Shame. It seems odd to have it hardwired to broadcast for an optional purpose. Reading briefly on it, i see no need for AImesh for myself and maybe for many others. By not user-configurable, do you mean also beyond the stock firmware UI, i.e. merlin software, openSSH etc.? Thanks.
