Hello guys,
i have a question regarding a script,
if i run the script by terminal it works fine, even with “/system script run …”
but if i let the script run by netwatch, it doesn’t
this is the script i have created:
:log warning message="Start failover check - check ping"
:global ping
:set $ping [/ping 192.168.100.1 count=10]
/do {
:log warning message="If ping = 0 run down script"
:if ($ping = 0) do={
:log warning message="Put FO to 0"
:global FO 0
:log warning message="sending SMS"
/tool sms send phone-number=NUMBER message="Sint-Rembert: Standaard gateway is DOWN, LTE is FAILOVER" port=lte1
:log warning message="Finished part - down script"
} else={:log warning message="ping is NOT 0 - up or unstable"}
:log warning message="If ping = 10 and FO = 0 run up script"
:if ($ping = 10 & $FO = 0) do={
:log warning message="Put FO to 1"
:global FO 1
:log warning message="sending SMS"
/tool sms send phone-number=NUMBER message="Sint-Rembert: Standaard gateway is UP, LTE is standby" port=lte1
:log warning message="Finished part - up script"
} else={:log warning message="ping is NOT 10 - Down or unstable"}
:log warning message="Remove conections"
/ip firewall connection remove [find]
:log warning message="Finished failover script"
}
what does it do:
this is a scrip in a wap LTE kit, t
the script checks if the main router is active or not,
- if the main switches to failover and uses the Mobile data of the wap LTE kit the wap sends a sms to a provided number. to tell me its switched over.
- if after a switch or “down” the main switches back or goes "up"to the main gateway of the ISP the LTE sends a sms to tell it switched back to the main ISP
- because there are some switches in between that we don’t manage, it hapens that we have some timeouts on ping, so there is also a system the kills out these false positive UP’s, since every up sends us an SMS after a ping loss
everything works fine exept if i add the false positive check it doesn’t work at all. it doesnt create globals and it doesn’t check them even if i add them manualy,
if i do it by terminal it all works fine for some reason.
my network setup looks as follows
