Mikrotik reboot alert with false detection checks 2

Support
Updated

 

Scenario:

We have a routerboard which have 2 wan pppoe-outX dialers. Gmail account is configured to send alerts. On the same LAN we have KANNEL sms gateway server which acts as a central sms gateway for sending receiving sms.

Disclaimer:
The script is designed for some specific network, it may not fit general public requirements, but still its a good idea to collect various scripting ideas for learning purposes and it may help in other tasks as well.

Requirements:

  • If the Router is rebooted , it should send us Email and SMS with the new WAN ip addresses.
  • It should check for both WAN connections status before acquiring IP addresses, if it won’t check for interface status and the dialer aren’t connected, the script will terminate, therefore this check must be added
  • It should check for UPTIME , if the UPTIME is less than X Minutes, then it should consider the RB is actually rebooted, this check was required to prevent false detection of reboot. In some ROS, it was a bug that the RB doesn’t gets rebooted but reload the OS and the scripts consider that the RB got rebooted while it actually dont. so this check need to be added.
  • Make sure you have already configured the /tools/emails section in RB to make email alerts work.

the SCRIPT !

use the following script, modify it as required. schedule it to run on system reboot only,
