how to create .npk file

Fri Jul 18, 2014 6:12 am

Hi all,

Recently I am going to install my customized packages in my routerboard. I know that the extension is .npk.
So how can I make customized npk package?

Thanks.
Anton.

NPK is a closed format that only MikroTik themselves uses. It's not intended for 3rd parties to create RouterOS add-ons.

Whatever it is you want to do, you'll need to either implement it on a separate device by connecting to RouterOS via the API (if it's non-network thing related; e.g. a management or testing application of some sort), or ask and wait for MikroTik to implement it (if it's networking related; e.g. support for an otherwise not supported VPN protocol or whatever).

Don't get too excited about it. It is totally outdated, and doesn't support any current packages.

All recent packages are signed with EC-KCDSA signature, and there's no way to create a valid npk file unless you know a secret key.
