NPK or gzip support?

Hoping that one of the MikroTik guys can comment on this... My blacklist is getting very large. I'm hoping to be able to send the script (about 200,000 "add" lines) in a compressed format. Is it possible to compress it on the server side and send it as an NPK, then import from that? Thanks

Re: Blacklist Filter update script

No, I'm sorry. As I said, the processes is automated. It receives and processes nearly 100,000 IP's each day. If an IP makes it on the list, then it has been directly or indirectly responsible for malware. The whole thing was designed to keep my personal clients safe. If it's not working for you, th...

Re: Blacklist Filter update script

That means that the ip/ subnet is or has been serving malware for at least 12 hours. The list is automated and will remove the address once it has been clean for 24 hours.

I will not manually remove addresses.

Re: Unable to see imported scripts in script repository

Scripts aren't 'imported' as you think they are. running /import scriptName imports the commands into the configuration, not into a script.
It will be much simpler for you if you simply copy/paste the script into a new script window in WinBox.

Re: Basic firewall

The default config has default block rules. I'm assuming you started from a blank config.

Simply add a default drop for the forward and input chain, and make each the last rule in the chain.
You should be able to find many examples both in the forum and wiki.
