The first trick works for WinBox 3.7 on Mac [download], the second doesn’t.

Mikrotik and SFP versus SFTP+ is always confusing especially as the text on their equipment and their documentation doesn’t show well which situations work.
Equipment text is further on, this is their text searchable documentation:
| Brand | Model | Distance | Rate | Connector/Cable type | Wavelength | Tested with | Works / Doesn’t |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MikroTik | S+DA0003 | 3M | 10G | Twinax Copper | — | All MikroTik products with SFP/SFP+ interfaces | Natively supported |
As usually, a long search in the forums reveals the background information:
[WayBack] SFP in SFP+ slot – MikroTik RouterOS: 10Gb SFP+ sockets are usually backward compatible with SFP, but this is not guaranteed.
There are two tricks involved to get an SFP connection between these devices working:

Maybe for my LoT (LAN of Things): having multiple (even many) local LANs some each with their section of LoT equipment nicely separated and partially being able to talk to some of the other LANs or part of the outside world.
Some links that might help me getting this set up:

Just over a year after this got posted, I wonder what the current state of affairs is. Did it get a lot worse or just a little (as when writing this in November 2016 my guess is that it won’t get any better soon):
To repeat +Thomas Mueller ‘s words:
Internet of default passwords …
Sounds bad until you realize that it’s even worse. There are millions of devices out there that can be or have already been compromised and can get their owners into deep shit, without their owners even doing anything wrong. And keeping your virus scanner up to date won’t help at all (it doesn’t really protect your PC either, but that’s a different story).Just watch the first 10 minutes of the video, but be warned, it might ruin your day.
Via +Joe C. Hecht:
I found this to be a superior product – If you are into security, this episode was worth a listen. I hear they are into talking about home servers too. I like that.

Similar to IP ranges for private networks that are safe for testing
there are also locally administered MAC address ranges safe for testing
Thanks to [WayBack] Sam and [WayBack] Peter for answering.

Start Time special value `startup`
There is a special startup value for “Start Time” you can enter which makes it runs once 3 seconds after reboot.
If by then your router isn’t fully “up” yet (i.e. waiting for PPPoE or DHCP network settings), then inside the script you can perform a delay global command as shown in the code fragment from the below forum post.
Don’t you love how people still tend to both repeat themselves and abbreviate stuff even though they have code completion at their disposal?:
{:delay 10};
/log print file=([/system identity get name] . "Log-" . [:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6]); \
/tool e-mail send to="xxx@xxx.com" subject=([/system identity get name] . " Log " . \
[/system clock get date]) file=([/system identity get name] . "Log-" . [:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".txt"); :delay 10; \
/file rem [/file find name=([/system identity get name] . "Log-" . [:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".txt")]; \
:log info ("System Log emailed at " . [/sys cl get time] . " " . [/sys cl get date])
