Email Script When Interface Status Change (Running or Not Running)

[changeip]

Just let the router do it internally - instead of a script…

/system logging
add action=emailalert disabled=no prefix=“” topics=info,interface

Then change your email alert settings:

/system logging action
remove [find name=“emailalert”]
add email-to=noc@youremaildomain.com name=emailalert target=email

I do not understand dear friend.

The built in syslog functions will put into the log when an interface goes up and down. YOu just need to add a syslog event to email that to you. We use it all the time - every time an interface goes up and down it will email our NOC. No script needed. Try it. Paste in those commands with a valid working email relay and you should get emails.

I just pasted the commands and it doesn’t create any rules, my email is enkas012016@gmai.com

Solution is simple and Easy rather then Scripting…

Thank You So much for the Idea

Sure but my script has a different purpose.
I use recursive routing and whenever the gateway changes on my ISP, the gatewayIPs, in my IP routes do not get updated.
This script addresses that.

:if ($bound=1) do={
:local iface $interface
:local gw [ /ip dhcp-client get [ find interface=$“iface” ] gateway ]
/ip route set [ find comment=“PrimaryRecursive” gateway!=$gw ] gateway=$gw
/ip route set [ find comment=“SecondaryRecursive” gateway!=$gw ] gateway=$gw
/tool e-mail send to=“myaddress@email.com” subject=([/system identity
get name]) body=" This is your new gateway IP: $newIgw";
}

My TOOLS EMAIL Setting.
/tool e-mail
set address=ISP_email_server_IP from=myaddress@email.com port=465 start-tls=
tls-only user=myaddress@email.com

When my DHCP clients update… A script in the DHCP client updates my recursive gateways.

So it happens at every DHCP lease.

I tried this and nothing happened. I went into system logging and tried to do it manually but there is no email option.

Do you need to be on a certain routeros for this to work?

Great idea! thanks.

/system logging action
add email-start-tls=yes email-to=myemail@gmail.com name=sendinterface target=email

/system logging
add action=sendinterface topics=interface

BR.

That works, thank you!

Is there any way to add more info to the email like the router name and a message?

[rextended]

No, you must use scripts / netwatch

[tabate47]

Thanks Rex.

What is the best way to send an email upon failover? I’m using recursive routes but I don’t have any scripting set up. I was trying to avoid scripts if possible, but it seems like for this I will need it.

I just want to email when the main isp goes down, and then again when it comes back up.

[rextended]

First of all, check other topics about dual wan failover, then simply netwatch 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 and send proper mail accordingly…

This does work, but for the love of god i can’t make mikrotik send any information about the board thus i don’t know what is it good for. There is a field “from” : Name or email address that will be shown as receiver.
But it doesnt work i tried to put device name there or an IP but i wont recieve an email, it does show in a log that has been sent but never deleivered. You have to change it to exactly same name as “user” is then it works. Then i wont recognize from which device it was sent, am i missing something? using ROS 6.48 on this particular board.
