Monitoring MikroTik RouterOS is easy with PRTG

General News

Summary

Back in 1997, MikroTik developed a RouterOS software system that provides extensive stability, controls, and flexibility for all kinds of data interfaces and routing. Five years later, MikroTik created their own hardware called RouterBoard which today in combination with RouterOS supports all the necessary features for an ISP - routing, firewall, bandwidth management, wireless access point, backhaul link, hotspot gateway, VPN server, and more. For demonstration purposea, Ill use a multi-port MikroTik RB3011 router running on an ARM architecture CPU (1.4 GHz x 2), 1 GB RAM, and 128 MB disk space. By using SNMP Custom String sensor and OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.7.7.0, you will get notified by PRTG in case there is a new RouterOS available for your MikroTik. If you go back to the part about bandwidth monitoring, you will notice that Network Interface Statistics are being measured by the SNMP Custom Table sensor and OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.14.1.1.
