[Feature Request]Import overwrite settings

Can this option be implemented?

I mean, when you import a config file, add an argument that let you import everything regardless of what’s already on the router.

To overcome problems with importing config we created
/export compact.
Why is this not useful?

Because I want to import the file on another router on a daily basis to “update” it but i can’t if some of the parameters are already created.

I have a workaround here: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/import-export-problem/60207/1

But clearly the best solution would be to implemente this.

Cheers.

Export is direct print of commands where we have only “add” and “set” commands. It would require to redesign console to make such request.

Best option is to modify script before import.

Ok, so it can’t be done.

Anyway, what i’ve done seems to be working ok. Modifying script before import is not an option because this must be automatic on a daily basis as I said before.

Thanks for replying.

@mrz;
could import file=“file.rsc” modified in a such way
that it shows line numbers which failed to import?
Because currently it is nearly impossible to find the line which makes import throw an error.

If you paste line by line on the terminal you will eventually see the error, but that’s not optimal of course.
