RouterOS Scripting
1

guys.. need some in help here
can u please teach me to make a script “if” “do” “then” for monitoring packet loss on ping for 10 times, when packet loss reach for 90% then the script will “do” disable interface and “then” enable another interface.

L2 ring redundancy protocol support?

Hi.

Try this script.

:local ipPing ("8.8.8.8")
:local pingip
:set pingip [/ping $ipPing count=10]
:if ($pingip = 1) do={
	:log info ("90% lost")
    /interface ethernet disable ether1
} else={
    /interface ethernet enable ether1
}

Why you don’t use netwatch?

You can use netwatch too.
But @iwankaro1 is asking for 90% lost. Netwatch is binary ping (works or not wokrs) you can’t fine setup % of lost.

Thank you sir, exactly what i was looking for. Netwatch is just not good enough

7

Is it possible to run the script forever without using schedules?

8

btw if packet loss is between 91 and 100% wont work as intended
:if ($pingip = 1) should be :if ($pingip <= 1)

I know it’s an old post but i would love to read what are your experiences using netwatch VS script + schedule VS script only (if possible)

Best regards.

Not only are you quoating post above, but you do it 3 times!!!

You can see this thread: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/does-quouting-quotes-of-quotes-in-consecutive-post-make-any-sense/144357/1

Edited my post.
Original phpBB skin prosilver (that I use) it red :slight_smile:

You mean like this?

Why on earth would you have a quote button if it is not to quote the comment that you want to thank / improve, i give you 1/3 of my quote as unnecesary.. is that enough to you to behave like an asshole?

I actually have lots of things to thank u for… thanks for this incredible off topic, thanks for beeing always vigilant in case anyone new to the forum decides to go crazy again and quote 3 times!!! someone else comment (god saves us) and my favourite, thanks for sharing the thread, i was happy to read comments like this one:

´´Well, forum etiquette is not something you are born with. And in this particular case it’s nothing to pay attention to compared to the BLOB’ed reply. It’s something you need to consider, especially regarding how to treat new forum users. Being nice spreads good vibes for everyone, Cheers!´´

Or like this one:

´´Please stop harassing forum users about this question. It is more annoying than quotes. Thanks.´´ (If you don´t remember whom post this you better go check again)

It´s getting late i have to go. Please, it doesn´t take that much of your time to double check your comments in google translator or any other software, don´t disrespect language and readers like that.
Best regards (trully),
a noobie.

When you reply to the post above you, quote is not needed, since its a continuation of the conversation.
But you can like this quote part of it if its to reply to specific part of the post.

You did not just Quote the post above you, but you did it 3 times to the same post. And even quoted your own post.
Since there was not comment inn between you should have edited your own post instead.

forum etiquette is not something you are born with

This past is true. But how did some learn to click this button " (quote buttotn) to reply, when there is a Post Reply button?

There is also another thing that happens when you quote with name in Quoting. The person who get Quoted get an email that someone quoted your post. This is ok when you have just on post here and there, but when you have many post and read the forum every day, this will just fill opp the innbox.

Hopefully you (and other) learn some by takning feedback :slight_smile:
Use Quoting when its needed, and pick only the part of a post that needs to be Quoted.

I need help with a script similar to this one, I use 700 Mbps and I would like the script to ping 8.8.8.8 and when the internet goes down to 250 Mbps send the router to restart. Thanks for the help.

16

Can someone help me

17

You should check the speed-test results. If the speed goes down to 250, then run the restart command: /system/reboot

Hi

i am using network with ROS7 and seen in the manual that is can hadle % of ping loss as an parameter but i am using thr basic icmp only but i think
netwatch is your best option and less coding and can even see realtime charaterstics it seems but again i have not used it but can be set according to neds
according to the manuals or wiki for netwatch, seems like a neat tool.

good luck and spemd time with netwatch and i think you will like it.
