How control several Mikrotik`s not one by one

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

How Could I change some thing in several Mikrotiks ( for example add a new rule in filter in all my Mikrotik`s ) not one by one

Could I do a script in one mikrotik that change some or rules in another mikrotik, if it is possible How?


Thanks
It is because I have more than 40 Mikrotiks on my network and when I made some change I have to change one by one
Sorry for my question

files *.auto.rsc which were uploaded via FTP are executed automatically, so just make a simple batch file to upload your script to all your ROSes

We had the same problem so we wrote the following software http://www.routertools.com.au

I think this software is too much expensive…

m4rko,

Depends how you look at it. What used to take us 2 days to complete now takes 2 minutes.

I understand that, but I tested trial and if Your programmer is pro I think he finished this for 2 hours…
It’s not that much powerful for 99$…

7

that’s australian dollars, by the way :wink: It’s more like 80USD

Testing alone takes more than 2 hours…then there is support for the product / improvements etc.

Anyways…you don’t have to use it - I just thought some people out there would get considerable benefit from using the product. Eg Transfering script files to all of your routers in just minutes while not having to write any scripts and seeing in table format the results of the transfers. Or checking all firewall rules to ensure you have the same security on every router.

Hey davidw

The software doesn’t seem to work on dude backups above a certain size.
Ours comes out at 620~Mb and crashes the app when I try to use it.

10

Ok that’s interesting…do you have a specific error message ?

11

An error occured loading the Dude XML file:

Exception of type ‘System.OutOfMemoryException’ was thrown.

System has 6gb of ram, currently using 3.6gb so that shouldn’t be a problem.

12

Ok let me try and reproduce the problem

Hi!

Alternatively… Is there any easy way to export just some settings and import them into a different routerboard? For example a given ruleset, the IP addresses, etc.

Thanks!

my free version says “An error occured loading the Dude XML file, column TypeID does not belong to table device”
and the xml file is only 8mb

/export can be used at any level. Do the segments you’re interested in, combine them into a file, /import that on another device.

16

Can I ask you how many devices you have in your Dude database ?

17

That was a bug in an earlier version…which version do you have now ? Try downloading the latest version 1.04.

If the problem still persists then let me know and I will investigate.

18

its 1.04

19

680~ devices
140~ RouterOS devices

Ok have changed the import process of the dude file - Version 1.05 is now available for download.
Also fixed issue when typeid column is not available in your dude file.
