Shawn's point (and JIRA) is that the UI doesn't pass the "router" parameter correctly, so it is being ignored.
Simply put: You cannot create collections with the admin UI using implicit routing because of this bug. Don't use it. Either use the "solr/bin create_collection" command or put the parameters directly on the url with parameters from here: https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/collections-api.html something like: ..../solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&router.name=implicit&shards=shard1,shard2,shard3&replicationFactor=..... You can check whether the collection is created correctly by going to the admin UI>>cloud>>tree>>collections>>your_collection You should see the data about your collection, including what router was actually used.
