Best way to manage a large network

RouterOS General
1

Hi all.
I have a network of 16 antennas wich connect approx 200 users.
For the point to point, point to multipoint, client CPE I use mikrotik routerboard (os 2.9 and 3.9).

I need to monitor the users CPE and I would have each 6 hours the actual parameters of each user CPE: signal strength, tx/rx bytes, CCQ, number of pppoe disconnection, the log file.

I know how to do this, scripting a telnet session for each cpe, but I ask if there is a better (more robust) way:

  • have mikrotik a sdk for windows ?
  • schedule a script in the CPE and download a result file ?
  • a software to monitor all users ?

thanks a lot.

did you try The Dude?

As Chupaka says try the Dude.

Also you can use any industry standard SNMP management system to monitor your systems.

A common way to do this is to use the MRTG or Cacti Graphong Tools to query all your devices and then display the graphs as you need.

These can get quite complex and allow you not only a management interface but also a monitoring system that you can allow your customers to log in to to view their own usage statistics.

We use both Dude and Cacti in our networks
