RouterOS Scripts
================
[](https://github.com/eworm-de/routeros-scripts/stargazers)
[](https://github.com/eworm-de/routeros-scripts/network)
[](https://github.com/eworm-de/routeros-scripts/watchers)
[RouterOS](https://mikrotik.com/software) is the operating system developed
by [MikroTik](https://mikrotik.com/aboutus) for networking tasks. This
repository holds a number of [scripts](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Scripting)
to manage RouterOS devices or extend their functionality.
*Use at your own risk*, pay attention to
[license and warranty](#license-and-warranty)!
Requirements
------------
Latest version of the scripts require recent RouterOS to function properly.
Make sure to install latest updates before you begin.
Specific scripts may require even newer RouterOS version.
Initial setup
-------------
### Get me ready!
If you know how things work just copy and paste the
[initial commands](INITIAL-COMMANDS.md). Remember to edit and rerun
`global-config-overlay`!
First time users should take the long way below.
### Live presentation
Want to see it in action? I've had a presentation [Repository based
RouterOS script distribution](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9neG3oAhcY)
including demonstation recorded live at [MUM Europe
2019](https://mum.mikrotik.com/2019/EU/) in Vienna.
> ⚠️ **Warning**: Some details changed. So see the presentation, then follow
> the steps below for up-to-date commands.
### The long way in detail
The update script does server certificate verification, so first step is to
download the certificates. If you intend to download the scripts from a
different location (for example from github.com) install the corresponding
certificate chain.
/ tool fetch "https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts/plain/certs/R3.pem" dst-path="letsencrypt-R3.pem";
Note that the commands above do *not* verify server certificate, so if you
want to be safe download with your workstations's browser and transfer the
files to your MikroTik device.
* [ISRG Root X1](https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrgrootx1.pem)
* Let's Encrypt [R3](https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-r3.pem)
Then we import the certificates.
/ certificate import file-name=letsencrypt-R3.pem passphrase="";
For basic verification we rename the certificates and print their count. Make
sure the certificate count is **two**.
/ certificate set name="R3" [ find where fingerprint="67add1166b020ae61b8f5fc96813c04c2aa589960796865572a3c7e737613dfd" ];
/ certificate set name="ISRG-Root-X1" [ find where fingerprint="96bcec06264976f37460779acf28c5a7cfe8a3c0aae11a8ffcee05c0bddf08c6" ];
/ certificate print count-only where fingerprint="67add1166b020ae61b8f5fc96813c04c2aa589960796865572a3c7e737613dfd" or fingerprint="96bcec06264976f37460779acf28c5a7cfe8a3c0aae11a8ffcee05c0bddf08c6";
Always make sure there are no certificates installed you do not know or want!
All following commands will verify the server certificate. For validity the
certificate's lifetime is checked with local time, so make sure the device's
date and time is set correctly!
Now let's download the main scripts and add them in configuration on the fly.
:foreach Script in={ "global-config"; "global-config-overlay"; "global-functions" } do={ / system script add name=$Script source=([ / tool fetch check-certificate=yes-without-crl ("https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts/plain/" . $Script . "\?h=routeros-v6") output=user as-value]->"data"); };
The configuration needs to be tweaked for your needs. Edit
`global-config-overlay`, copy configuration from
[`global-config`](global-config) (the one without `-overlay`).
Save changes and exit with `Ctrl-o`.
/ system script edit global-config-overlay source;
And finally load configuration and functions and add the scheduler.
/ system script { run global-config; run global-functions; };
/ system scheduler add name="global-scripts" start-time=startup on-event="/ system script { run global-config; run global-functions; }";
The last step is optional: Add this scheduler **only** if you want the scripts
to be updated automatically!
/ system scheduler add name="ScriptInstallUpdate" start-time=startup interval=1d on-event=":global ScriptInstallUpdate; \$ScriptInstallUpdate;";
### Changes for RouterOS v6
Let's consider RouterOS v6 being legacy. If you want to stay with RouterOS
v6 for some time add these lines to your `global-config-overlay`, if missing:
# Use branch routeros-v6 with RouterOS v6:
:global ScriptUpdatesUrlSuffix "\?h=routeros-v6";
Then reload the configuration.
### Changes for RouterOS v7
RouterOS v7 is the future, and default branch `main` expects it. Just drop
`$ScriptUpdatesUrlSuffix` from your `global-config-overlay` to use that.
Then reload the configuration and continue below to update scripts.
Updating scripts
----------------
To update existing scripts just run function `$ScriptInstallUpdate`. If
everything is up-to-date it will not produce any output.
$ScriptInstallUpdate;
Adding a script
---------------
To add a script from the repository run function `$ScriptInstallUpdate` with
a comma separated list of script names.
$ScriptInstallUpdate check-certificates,check-routeros-update;
Scheduler and events
--------------------
Most scripts are designed to run regularly from
[scheduler](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:System/Scheduler). We just
added `check-routeros-update`, so let's run it every hour to make sure not to
miss an update.
/ system scheduler add name="check-routeros-update" interval=1h on-event="/ system script run check-routeros-update;";
Some events can run a script. If you want your DHCP hostnames to be available
in DNS use `dhcp-to-dns` with the events from dhcp server. For a regular
cleanup add a scheduler entry.
$ScriptInstallUpdate dhcp-to-dns,lease-script;
/ ip dhcp-server set lease-script=lease-script [ find ];
/ system scheduler add name="dhcp-to-dns" interval=5m on-event="/ system script run dhcp-to-dns;";
There's much more to explore... Have fun!

Installing custom scripts & modules
-----------------------------------
My scripts cover a lot of use cases, but you may have your own ones. You can
still use my scripts to manage and deploy yours, by specifying `base-url`
(and `url-suffix`) for each script.
This will fetch and install a script `hello-world.rsc` from the given url:
$ScriptInstallUpdate hello-world.rsc "base-url=https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts/plain/README.d/"
(Yes, the example url still belongs to the repository for easy
handling - but the url can be what ever you use.)
For a script to be considered valid it has to begin with a *magic token*.
Have a look at [any script](README.d/hello-world.rsc) and copy the first line
without modification.
Starting a script's name with `mod/` makes it a module and it is run
automatically by `global-functions`.
