Traffic Monitor Help

Is there anyway to get the traffic monitor to trigger a script on a different Mikrotik box when traffic excedes a given 5 minute average level?

This isn’t a very elegant solution but how about:

  1. Set an IP address (X.X.X.X) on an interface that is accesible from the remote MT
  2. When the trafic counter threashold is reached disable X.X.X.X.
  3. Setup netwatch on the remote MT to monitor X.X.X.X.
  4. Trigger script when netwatch can no longer ping X.X.X.X

'Hope that helps.

When the trafic counter threashold is reached disable X.X.X.X

I will say one thing. That is clever!

Thanks.

I think you can already do that with queues. Perhaps Dmitry can answer how to do this.

Well, we will have to see :slight_smile:

I have not tried it, so if you do, please let us know if it works.
