REST interface to routeros?

RouterOS Scripting
1

I am building a Linux app that needs to talk to my RB450G router. I simple want to add an IP onto a list.

I’m looking for the simplest way to have my happ talk to the RB to accomplish this. Does the routerboard offer a REST API which would permit this?

Other simple ways?

There’s the API protocol, with lots of clients for different languages (seen at the bottom of the page), some simpler, some not so much.

It’s not a REST API though - it’s a dedicated TCP protocol.
