What is ROSInfo FOR LINUX?

ROSInfo

ROSInfo is a neat little tool that helps you keep an eye on signal levels, traffic, and network latency for x86 machines, RouterBoards, and other devices running Mikrotik RouterOS. If you're managing a network with lots of Mikrotik routers, this tool is going to be super helpful!

Compatibility with Mikrotik RouterOS

This project was built specifically for Mikrotik RouterOS 2.9. It's been tested on a big network, so you know it works well if you have multiple Mikrotik routers.

Supported Versions

You can use ROSInfo with any version of Mikrotik RouterOS 2.9, so you're covered no matter what!

Requirements to Get Started

Requirements:

• Apache


• PHP5 (make sure it supports SNMP)


• RRDTool 1.2


• php-rrdtool (this one isn't mandatory)


• SNMP utilities


• Cron or another scheduling daemon

Installation Steps

To get ROSInfo up and running:

1. Unpack the tarball into a directory that Apache can access.


2. You need to make sure the ./rrd directory and its subdirectories can be written to by Apache. Use chown and chmod.


3. Edit the file ./include/config.inc to fit your needs.


4. Add a cron job to run the fetchexec.php file every 5 minutes.

Cron Job Example

You can add this line in your /etc/crontab file:

*\/5 * * * * www-data /usr/bin/php /path/to/rosinfo/fetchexec.php > /dev/null 2>&1

Add New Routers Easily

If you want to add new routers, just go into include/config.inc and tweak the variable $systems. Remember that the link "Add a new router" on your web pages only gives instructions for your network admins.

A Few Notes on Usage

Please don't run the fetchexec.php file manually unless you're logged in as a user that Apache runs under. You might use something like su www-data , then start fetchexec.php from there.

Troubleshooting Tips!

If you're looking for debug info from the fetchexec process, just uncomment the line $debug=1; in config.inc. This will save output in several log files.
