Persistent mount for SMB file system

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Manual mount with
mount -t cifs //192.168.10.10/video /mnt/video -o username=router,password=******,vers=3.0
works fine, but my attempts to make the mount persistent fail so far. I tried:

/etc/config/fstab

config 'mount'
    option target '/mnt/video'
    option device '//192.168.10.10/video'
    option fstype 'cifs'
    option options 'username=router,password=******,vers=3.0'
    option enabled '1'
    option enabled_fsck '0'
    option enabled_mount '1'
    option auto '1'

/etc/fstab

//192.168.10.10/video /mnt/video cifs username=router,password=******,vers=3.0

But neither of them work.

Logs don't seem remarkable, the only mention of fstab at startup was:

Thu Jun 26 00:03:45 2025 user.notice ucitrack: Setting up non-init /etc/config/fstab reload handler: /sbin/block mount

block info does not pick up the fstab entry:

root@Router:~# block info
/dev/loop0: UUID="191fface-1dd2-11b2-8fe6-9483c4ab8d23" LABEL="rootfs_data" VERSION="1.16" MOUNT="/overlay" TYPE="f2fs"
/dev/mmcblk0p7: UUID="0a8ece7f-130f14e3-cf09c394-37c0fbdb" VERSION="4.0" MOUNT="/rom" TYPE="squashfs"

What am I missing?

I found that other users experienced the same problem [1], [2]. I have not found anyone who would make fstab work after reboot. Also, one users says:

As far as I know there is no procedure or script in OpenWRT, which processes the /etc/fstab file at boot time. You have to do this on your own.

Users mostly talking about /etc/fstab though this guid suggests using /etc/config/fstab:

Neither is working with cifs though.

So is fstab in OpenWrt limited to block devices?
