Re: how to know if routeros/usermanager is running or not
Checking RouterOS itself is as simple as making a connection attempt.
To check if User Manager is accepting connections, once you make a connection with the API, you can do

Code: Select all
$isRadiusRunning = 'true' === $util->setMenu('/radius incoming')->get(null, 'accept');
if ($isRadiusRunning) {
//RADIUS server (i.e. User Manager) is working
} else {
//RADIUS server (i.e. User Manager) is not working

Re: how to know if routeros/usermanager is running or not
one more question...
I got this code somewhere around the forum while searching for testing connectivity...
it worked and showed the connection error time out... but the problem was the timeout was 1 minute long...
how can i reduce it to 10 seconds?

{
$client = new RouterOS\Client( "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "username", "password");
}
catch (RouterOS\DataFlowException $e)
{//In this try block's case, invalid credentials is the only possibility
echo $e->getMessage();
}
catch (RouterOS\SocketException $e)
{
//In this try block's case, connection failure is one of two possibilities,
//the other being that you're connecting to a different kind of service (e.g. if you have an HTTP server at that port)
$previous = $e->getPrevious();
if ($previous instanceof \Exception)
{
echo = "{$previous->getSocketErrorNumber()}: {$previous->getSocketErrorMessage()}" . "\n";
}
else
{
echo = $e->getMessage();
}

Re: how to know if routeros/usermanager is running or not
It's the 5th constructor argument, in seconds. F.e.
will set the timeout to 10 seconds.
Alternatively, you can set the php.ini directive default_socket_timeout. In the absence of a timeout in the constructor, the value of that directive is what's honored.
Code: Select all
new RouterOS\Client( "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "username", "password", null, false, 10);Alternatively, you can set the php.ini directive default_socket_timeout. In the absence of a timeout in the constructor, the value of that directive is what's honored.

I forgot to ask... is this the same as radtest from this guide https://wiki.freeradius.org/guide/Radtest ?Checking RouterOS itself is as simple as making a connection attempt.
To check if User Manager is accepting connections, once you make a connection with the API, you can doCode: Select all$isRadiusRunning = 'true' === $util->setMenu('/radius incoming')->get(null, 'accept'); if ($isRadiusRunning) { //RADIUS server (i.e. User Manager) is working } else { //RADIUS server (i.e. User Manager) is not working }

Re: how to know if routeros/usermanager is running or not
No. The code above tests if the RADIUS server is running and accepting connections. The test you're linking to instead tests how the server would respond to a particular query.
If you want to test how the RADIUS server would respond to a query, you need to use a RADIUS client, like this PECL package for example or this library.
