HOTSPOT for Hotel - create logins outside mikrotic

RouterOS General
1

Hi all,

I work at a hotel, we have a RB750GL with hotspot working, we want to implement one thing that I have no idea where to start from.

When the guest does the checkin, we want that our hotel software sends some information to the mikrotik or a file, telnet call, etc… so the mikrotik hotspot will understand that it has a new login and that is valid until the date XXXX

is there some kind of API to communicate with mikrotik ? or some command made by telnet that it will understand ?

would this be possible ? In the hotel side we can do anything in our software once it was mabe by us…

cheers

Thanks man…

After some gooooogle, i think in my case is better to use freeradius in a separate server, so the aoft hotel can talk to the mysql and insert the users on demand.

Cheers

You should have started your own thread but anyway here is a good place to start.
