I've been wondering about monitoring for incoming attacked (DDOS, port scanning, etc.).
Does RouterOS have capabilities to alert an admin when under attack?
Thanks!
I only recently learned of about port knocking and it is really cool!You might want to have a look at these YouTube videos:

As do I, thanks in great part to your help.The port knocking is useful in terms of getting a better understanding of how the router config works and what can be done.
I use wireguard for remotely connecting to the router.
Exactly that. Wireguard will recover (and usually Winbox too).I did notice, however, that if I keep Winbox open just sitting there every now and then it will disconnect and reconnect. I wonder if the IP connectivity between sites drops for a moment and that's what's causing it, or something else.
