Run Script after Re-Boot

RouterOS Scripting
1

Is it possible to run a script once after reboot ??

2

Once as in really only once and then never again, not even subsequent reboots ?
Don’t think so without other scripting to change things.

But it is possible to have a script run after each reboot.
Use scheduler and set start-time=startup

Yes,

1st case, only one time after reboot, everytime the machine reboot:

/system scheduler
add name=everytimeonreboot  start-time=startup interval=0s \
    on-event=":delay 20s;\r\n/system script run <SCRIPTNAME>"

2nd case, only one time after reboot, but just for next reboot only:

/system scheduler
add name=onlyonetimeonreboot  start-time=startup interval=0s \
    on-event=":delay 20s;\r\n/system script run <SCRIPTNAME>\r\n/system scheduler disable onlyonetimeonreboot"

for execute again on boot, simply enable again the scheduler

As I said, additional scripting to disable things.
Nicely done !

3rd case, only one time after reboot, but just for next reboot only, self-destruction scheduler:

/system scheduler
add name=selfdestructionscheduler start-time=startup interval=0s \
    on-event=":delay 20s;\r\n/system script run <SCRIPTNAME>\r\n/system scheduler remove [find where name=selfdestructionscheduler]"

for execute again on boot, you must add again the scheduler.
