librouteros problem

RouterOS Scripting
1

i am testing librouteros in a linux server, using collectd to graph a mikrotik server
The problem i have is i success graph CPU, Memory and DF, but Interfaces is not working, collectd makes emptys graphs, after checking with the script "ros" i get this :

./ros -u warn1ng 10.0.0.58 interface

Dunno why i am getting 0 stats, on all the interfaces (like 500 interfaces if i count the pppoe ones)

What i am Running is:

Collectd version 5.1.0

Librouteros version 1.1.2

Mikrotik Routerboard server version 5.19 x86

Sorry my bad english.

Perhaps between 2010 and now, RouterOS changed something in the interfaces, while the “ros” executable is doing more than a simple print, and is thus not coping with the new changes…

Try to use low(er) level commands, e.g.

./ros -u warn1ng 10.0.0.58 /interface/print

Works incorrectly with CCR + ROS 6.x
In collectd, SFP interfaces are not graphed at all.
DfComplex and Memory have strange values (3.5T free, 360G used)
All other graphs are empty.

Collectd correctly displays “eth*” interface names on graphs, but all graphs still empty:

ros -u collectd 10.70.59.1 /interface/print
