Mikrotik RouterOS Statistics (Update 02/10/2009)
http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=25349

One year after my last post in this forum I come back with lots of graphs that have to do with Mikrotik RouterOs. Many of them are based on older templates of mine. A lot of new work has been based on Marlow's work with Wireless Registration Tables and Queues.

Cacti Version: cacti-0.8.7c
RouterOs Version: 2.9.x & 3.0.x

Graph Support For:
System
HDD
CPU
Memory
Uptime

General
Active PPP Connections
Number of Routes
Number of Active Wireless Connections (Linux Only)
Number of Current ARP Entries (Linux Only)

Wireless Registration Tables (per Wireless Client)

A. Unzip somewhere the attachment (mikrotik-20090210.zip)
B. Copy:
1. zipdir/scripts/mikrotik_wireless_interfaces.php -> cacti-web-dir/scripts/mikrotik_wireless_interfaces.php
2. zipdir/scripts/mikrotik_ppp_connections.php -> cacti-web-dir/scripts/mikrotik_ppp_connections.php

6. zipdir/resources/snmp_queries/mikrotik_wireless_client.xml -> cacti-web-dir/resources/snmp_queries/mikrotik_wireless_client.xml
C. Import zipdir/templates/cacti_host_template_mikrotik.xml -> http://cacti.url.path/templates_import.php
D. Now just Add a New Device and select "Mikrotik" on Host Template

Notes:
The Mikrotik Host Template contains all of its dependencies, like Interface Statistics
All new templates have nothing to do with older. Are totally incompatible.

Changelog:
* fixes on old templates of mine
* template variable names corrected to follow cacti naming style
* added support for Marlow's work on wireless registration tables
* added more graphs for wireless registration tables
* added support for Arci's work on Queue Trees
* added more graphs for Queue Trees
* added graphs for Simple Queue
* added graphs for Routes & Active PPP Connections

Templates are based on:

where are that ?
I have seen no option like that until now!

What kind of hardware/software do you have ?

Is it possible to provide me read access to your mikrotik router that has 96 & 108 mbps data rate ?

Hi
I have installed package on my cacti but it doesn't want to cooperate

When i have added a host, Cacti displayed:

Nothing but SNMP Interface Statistics. Of course on MT there are some Queues (simple and tree) and some wireless clients so anything should be displayyed in Cacti.

When i tryed to create a Data Sources for the same host:

Any ideas what's wrong?

The problem was one missing file from template. Now queues and wireless client are OK, but registration table still not. When i run the querry manually it returns nothing, but snmpwalk -c cacti -v 1 1.2.3.4 .1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.1.2.1 returned correct data:

eekamouse · Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:10 pm

hi,

thanks a lot for this great job, i was using your old version templates and i switched to these new ones because of the registration table and ppp active templates. It seems to work properly but i was expecting something else with the registration table, a template which could graph the number of stations connected to the AP ( or could be sorted by wlan interfaces) . Is there any way to do that? I don't see any oid which could give the number of stations registered.

regards

Solution is simple. PHP was built without SNMP support. That’s why "/usr/share/cacti/site/scripts/mikrotik_wireless_interfaces.php" didn’t work.

Hi, this thread is alive ?

Even after i install the extensions for SNMP to PHP, i cant gather information from registration table.

But, what i'm really looking for, is to show in graphs the number of registered clients.

Anyone know anything about this?

Yes, it will run just fine! Let me know if you notice any problems.

REDTDI · Fri Jan 16, 2009 9:35 pm

Hi Mojiro:

Your Cacti scripts are simply awesome. Thanks so much for providing them to this forum. They couldn't be easier to use and I'm now monitoring over 700 items on my Cacti server. Do you know what I would have to do to show the "Simple Queue - Traffic" graph as bits/s instead of bytes/s? Is there somewhere in the scripts or Cacti that I could go to change this with a simple calculation change?

Also have you used THold on your Cacti server? Does it work well?

Thanks,
Ken

mojiro · Sat Jan 17, 2009 3:58 pm

I already have Queues in Bits and is named: Mikrotik - Queue - Simple Traffic (bits/sec, Total Bandwidth).

mojiro · Tue Feb 10, 2009 3:35 am

Bump!

I have updated the template. Check the first post.

mknnoc · Wed Feb 11, 2009 8:57 am

That is real great job. thanks for that!!

Anyway, i have some question regarding Queue Tree. On winbox, i see my traffic is hitting 20M while Cacti report about 2m only.

please see below:

total-download-cacti.png

total-download.png

what is wrong here?

By the way, can we monitor each queue tree leaf by Traffic? if monitor by packet, it would be difficult for monitoring.

Muqatil · Wed Feb 11, 2009 10:51 am

are you monitoring byte per second instead of bit per second?

mknnoc · Wed Feb 11, 2009 12:15 pm

i got it. thanks

Chupaka · Wed Feb 11, 2009 12:22 pm

are you monitoring byte per second instead of bit per second?

yesss: on the left of first picture: 'Bytes per second'

20 Mbps ~ 2,4 MiBps

mojiro · Thu Feb 12, 2009 12:47 am

By the way, can we monitor each queue tree leaf by Traffic? if monitor by packet, it would be difficult for monitoring.

ehm... what do you mean? If you monitor the top level of a tree, then you get all the traffic.

I cannot understand.

mknnoc · Thu Feb 12, 2009 3:45 am

mojiro, i mean can we monitor on queue child of the queue tree both by packet and traffic(Byte)?

mojiro · Thu Feb 12, 2009 7:56 am

mojiro, i mean can we monitor on queue child of the queue tree both by packet and traffic(Byte)?

Yes, it is possible. Since they would be in the same graph, both units should have similar numeric size, which is difficult.

What I mean? Every packet carries 1500 bytes, so you will have a graph with 1000p-p for packets and another one with 1500000p-p for bytes.

If they will be shown merged, you could not able to see the packet graph.

A solution, the packet graph may be multiplied by 1000 or 1500 in order to reach the byte (or bit) graph, but the vertical grid values could not be real for packets.

In the next version (I will be able to release it, in a month), I will add it and additionally I will add traffic/packet graphs with the in/out sizes being aggregated, since most of the wireless links are half-duplex. I have in mind to use alpha blending on graphs, in order to show the real size and the aggregated at the same time.

mknnoc · Thu Feb 12, 2009 8:50 am

Great!! Thanks

I'm getting these errors when I attempt to use these scripts (they import with no errors)

Data Query [Mikrotik - Queue - Simple]  	 Reload Associated Query
Error in data query.

Notice: Undefined variable: column_counter in /usr/share/cacti/site/graphs_new.php on line 887

it does this for "wireless client", "Wireless regestration table", "interface statistics" and "simple queue"

And it doesn't seem to graph anything for "wireless connections" (perhaps because it's dependent on other data.....) ?

Any help?

any idea how to fix this

fewi · Tue Nov 17, 2009 12:06 am

That's due to each PHP process having a memory limit of 16MB by default, and your instance requiring more memory than that. This can be changed via the php.ini.

Since that's entirely outside of RouterOS please use Google for answers - "php memory limit" as a query should get you there.

xezen · Tue Nov 17, 2009 12:32 am

but i have edited that thats why i came hers as this is router os with cacti

thats what i need
in mp php.ini file
max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
;max_input_nesting_level = 64 ; Maximum input variable nesting level
memory_limit = 50M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB)

fewi · Tue Nov 17, 2009 12:34 am

Did you restart the web server process? Depending on your setup PHP stays resident and doesn't re-evaluate the configuration file.

And this is a PHP issue. RouterOS doesn't run PHP.

xezen · Tue Nov 17, 2009 12:37 am

yes all services restarted
restarted the ubuntu server just to make 100% sore and thats right but still get error it changes in size everytime

maybe 'memory_limit' is set somewhere in virtual host definition?..

the problem is that cacti just see "bytes-out" . but "bytes-in" allways is nan .
i tried them with snmpwalk and there was no problem on both "bytes-in" and "bytes-out"

Hello,

Can You add support for Health - Voltage and Temperature?

active-fan: .1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.3.9.0
voltage: .1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.3.8.0

did you find a template or some other way to create temperature graphs for mikrotik in cacti?

Please check this topic for updating Mikrotik's Templates for Cacti.

Hello,

Could you please help me to configure Cacti to get data via SNMP from the router - I need to see the WAN bandwidth utilization? Now I can see the CPU load only and can't create a new graph for traffic.

Hello,

It would be great to centralize all Mikrotik plugins in the Cacti documentation page: http://docs.cacti.net/plugin:mikrotik

Someone have this plugins working in a recent Cacti? If yes, I could help to centralize the plugins.

Kind regards.

RB951G2HnD · Tue Jul 14, 2015 3:25 pm

I had removed Cacti from the server because my Mikrotik device doesn't support SNMP polling for the desired goal. I surfed the www and didn't find the same what I need.

I want to monitor interfaces bandwidth. Anyone has it working?

The default templates of Cacti can measure bandwidth and total traffic out of the box.

Thanks!

But need I install a Mikrotik template? Or with the default template will work?

Best regards.

The basic templates work fine if you are looking for interface statistics, that is standard SNMP information. If you are looking for other SNMP information (like number of hotspot users, or number of wireless clients), you can make your own templates, or use some of the other templates that are available.

RB951G2HnD · Wed Jul 15, 2015 8:10 pm

josu see all my posts above. As I had wrote there is no way to configure interfaces bandwidth collecting via SNMP on MikroTik RB951 at least. If you will find the way you will be a pioneer (let me know how).

Can you do a SNMP walk of the MikroTik in the first place? I don't own a 951, but I believe all MikroTiks support interface statistics, so that information should be available and graphable. If you cannot get SNMP information from the MikroTik, fix that first, then you can work on graphing the necessary information.

Also the Cacti default poller runs every 5 minutes, but can be set to 1 minute. But even then you are only getting the amount of traffic passed since the last poll, not live data. It is just an average amount of traffic passed since last poll.

When you create the Graphs on Cacti, on the graph creation page on the table "Data Query [SNMP - Interface Statistics]" you select the interfaces you want to monitor and then bellow on the right you select on the dropdown named "Select a graph type" > "In/Out Bit with Total Bandwidth".

The graphs that will be created will feature on the bottom of them the in/out/ bandwidth for the selected period of time.

You can see a sample on http://www.cha0s.gr/

Hello

Based on the templates on the first page a managed to do some corrections, edited Uptime template to be cleaner, Memory and Storage template to be exact, and also created the Mikrotik templates for Cacti for Voltage and board temperature. These are useful when you have MikroTik routers connected to a battery or solar source.

Would be nice to have some collaboration to update the templates on the first page because as i see Mojiro will not continue the development

Thanks

It will be great to centralize all templates in one place. github? cacti wiki?

Where could I download your templates?

Best regards.

GuJack20 · Wed Jul 29, 2015 11:20 am

Hello

I'll check cacti wiki and/or github but i need some collaboration since i'm too busy

Here is the mojiro archive, with the updated templates as stated above. It would be nice to have this on first page. Let's hope one of the admins or mojiro does this.

Thanks

Update: I checked the cacti wiki, and i found no way to post a template there. If anyone can, let me know. Also if you think we can post these templates in the MikroTik Wiki, let's do it.

I'm definitely getting a Not Found for the download link for that .zip.zip file.

RB951G2HnD · Mon Aug 03, 2015 9:40 am

There is a mistake in the URL. The correct link is: http://docs.cacti.net/_media/cacti_host ... .0.zip.zip

GuJack20 · Wed Aug 05, 2015 11:26 am

Yeah.

Someone had deleted the file, so i had to fix the link.
Also the .zip.zip extension added is strange

EDinATL · Mon Aug 10, 2015 5:50 am

Not sure if it's my version of cacti, (0.8.8a on a raspberry pi 2 running debian, had to edit the hash entries to get the new script to work on the old version, btw) but I had to fix the uptime graph by going in and changing the graph template items from LAST to AVERAGE.

Bump!

I have updated the template. Check the first post.

Hi, Which file we should replace?

I didn't get the "bump"

Hi All,

Is there anyway to get graph which will show DHCP lease? I mean count if items.

Same result of command /ip dhcp-server lease print count-only
