Enable and Disable Ethernet ports

RouterOS Scripting
1

Hi, i’m newbie with API’s Mikrotik right now, and I need some help :S

I need know how to enable and disable ethernet ports with api and php..

I was testing with these codes, but i cant fix them..Im so bad :frowning:

if ($API->connect($ipRouteros , $username , $pass, $api_puerto)) {
	{	
	$API->write('/interface/ethernet',false);
	$API->write('=disable=ether4',true);
	}
}




if ($API->connect($ipRouteros , $username , $pass, $api_puerto)) 
	{
	$API->write("interface/ethernet",false);
	$API->write("=SET=");
	$API->write("ether4",false);
	$API->write("=disabled=yes",true);
	
   }

Thanks :slight_smile:

P.D: I trying create 2 php, one of them to active an specific ethernet port, and another php to desactive it.
It’s my first project with mikrotik API :S

Think about how you do it from terminal.

If you do “/interface ethernet ?”, you’ll see “disable” is a command. If you then do “/interface ethernet disable ?”, you’ll see it accepts “numbers” as an argument, which is the interface(s) to disable.

Therefore:

$API->write('/interface/ethernet/disable',false);
$API->write('=numbers=ether4',true);

P.S. I’d really like to know what made you pick that particular PHP client.

Thanks, but i still having problems. It’s my full code:

<?php require_once('routeros_api.class.php'); 
?>

<?php
	

	 $ipRouteros="192.168.2.1"; // tu RouterOS.
     $Username="adminapi"; // usuario API
     $pass="adminapi"; // contraseña del usuario API
     $api_puerto=8728; // Puerto API por defecto
	
$API = new routeros_api();
$API->debug = false;
if ($API->connect($ipRouteros , $username , $pass, $api_puerto)) 
	{
	$API->write('/interface/ethernet/disable',false);
	$API->write('=numbers=ether4',true);
   }    

$API->disconnect();
?>

My problem is solved. I post the final script.

<?php require_once('api_mt_include2.php'); ?>
