I'm wanting to make sure we have the latest NIC drivers installed on our VM, how would I go about checking that?
 
Do you have a NIC as PCI inside the VM?
Please post the VM config qm config <VMID> as well.

I believe I do not have the NIC as a PCI, but rather as a virtual Network Device.

Here is the VM config:
Code:
root@r59:~# qm config 100
boot: order=scsi0;ide2;net0
cores: 22
cpu: host
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 30080
name: CHR-R59
net0: virtio=1E:23:C9:CA:F3:CD,bridge=vmbr0,firewall=1
net1: virtio=3E:37:7E:4D:0E:A7,bridge=vmbr4,firewall=1,queues=8
net2: virtio=7A:2B:3E:F4:ED:F1,bridge=vmbr5,firewall=1,queues=8
numa: 1
ostype: l26
scsi0: local-lvm:vm-100-disk-0,size=32932M
scsihw: virtio-scsi-pci
smbios1: uuid=621aa64f-d640-4335-9a92-66ab9f80c550
sockets: 2
unused0: local-lvm:vm-100-disk-1
vmgenid: 0a9d51b8-726b-4621-b591-793f032faa9b
 
ostype: l26
So you run LInux inside?

Drivers are maintained by the Linux distribution you installed, you can check virtio_net version with:

> modinfo virtio_net

It's RouterOS, which is Linux-based. I don't think there is a way to check/update the driver from within RouterOS.

Why not? Ask RouterOS support.
