I'm looking to do the same thing, wondering how you accomplished this.

Thanks

butteryak

Thanks for your response. But I think it may have confused me more ;-) To be clear there is not a WLAN interface on the router. The wireless is being handled by an external AP. Basically what i have is this: http://www.chrisgilles.com/img/network.jpg And this is what I'm hoping to accomplish: http:/...

butteryak

hello, Attempting to jump into the world of VLANs and a bit confused on how to start. A quick explanation of what I have existing and where I wanna go, and perhaps someone can point me in the right direction. I have RouterOS installed on a two-port ALIX PC. ether1 = WAN ether2 = LAN. My LAN network ...

butteryak

Been trying to see if the settings have any effect, still uncertain, any input on this would be appreciated:-)

butteryak

Im curious if the priority settings in the user-manager function on their own, or do I need to create Queues within routeros that these settings reference.

thanks much
Chris

It's consistent across clients/os. And only for specific websites. For example, surfing to hotmail brings up the login window every time. Facebook results in "Safari can't open page" or "secure connection failed" in Firefox or "website not available" in chrome. It may h...

butteryak

I see this quiet a bit with routeros, when using the Hotspot. I've been able to work around this for years, by simply telling people to clear their browser cache, but as I"m setting up another client, it's really not an option. Perhaps I have been missing something simple all these years. Basic...

butteryak

Near as I can tell, it's because I'm not using a RouterBoard? I have this installed on an ALIX board, are these statistics not supported? Is there any other way to get them?

butteryak

I can't seem to figure this out, it should be simple but I'm getting empty data values. empty email :local counter [/interface ethernet get ether1 rx-byte] :local traffic ($counter + [/interface ethernet get ether1 tx-byte]) /tool e-mail send to=chris@example.com from=chris@example.com subject="...

butteryak

Yes, but that does not really give me the information or access to what is needed. That only tells me what sessions are happening or have happened. This does not really give me access to the transfer-limit that I used to be able to apply to each specific user, within their profile, and then change t...

butteryak

I don't see any submenu under sessions in the usermanager. When I click on sessions, it shows me a list of user sessions that have taken place. I'm unclear if your answer is referring to the API. It's all a bit confusing with the changes in the usermanager from 4 to 6. Looks like things have changed...

butteryak

Hi, I've got a client that I've not been to in a number of years. I did an update from 4 to the latest 6.22. they have a PHP page which accesses the API so that they can change transfer-limits on users without having to log into Usermanager. After the upgrade it is no longer working. I'm guessing th...

butteryak

Doesnt look like any of those are affecting the connection. Disabling the firewall has no effect. Checked with ISP, nothing is blocked(I previously had a cisco router with VPN, had no problems connecting). Also shouldn't I be able to connect to my VPN on the WAN port from my LAN? any other thoughts?

butteryak

So i can connect to the PPTP server from my LAN, to my LAN address 192.168.1.1, but I cannot seem to connect from the outside world to my WAN address. Disabled firewall doesnt seem to make a difference. I followed directions in mikrotik documentation closely. This is basically for being able to conn...

butteryak

great...
that makes perfect sense.....
thanks much!!

butteryak

Yup, UPnP, forgot about that. thanks much!

butteryak

I have a device that needs to have IPSEC pass-through enabled, and I have no idea how to do it. thanks for any advice!!

butteryak

A little uncertain how to forward ports to a device that gets it's address via DHCP. I suppose I could bind it to an IP with a mac address. but I dont want to do that (I have my reasons) So any way I have a device that gets an address in the 192.168.1.0/24 range. my WAN address is static 64.x.x.x an...

butteryak

I'm curious if you were trying to do the same thing I am trying to do. I want my routeros login page to also log into my intranet site at the same time...hopfully using the same form and submit button, so that they get authorized the hotspot and the intranet site at the same time. I'm wondering if y...

butteryak

Is this still alive? I'd love to get my hands on this and see if I can make it work for my organization...

Thanks!

butteryak

Thanks guys, got it last night, basically did what Janisk said, , i was able to parse the value out and then cast it as a numerical and then add to it with a formula and then set it back into userman. works like a charm..... taduikis, i'm gonna play around with your suggestions as well. It's a bit d...

butteryak

Ok I got this much. I think this is the correct way of doing it. $API->write(/tool/user-manager/user/getall', false); $API->write('=.proplist=transfer-limit', false); $API->write('?name=test); the result being. Array ( [0] => !re [1] => =transfer-limit=900000000 [2] => !done ) I'm a bit uncertain ho...

butteryak

So the question being, how do a query a result from an array. Not sure if my wording is right on that. So,,,, If I want to get a specific parameter from one of my users in the usermanager. specifically,,,, I want to get the "transfer-limit' from user "test" and store that as a variabl...

butteryak

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, perhaps I'm missing somthing simple. but I'm trying to issue a command via a PHP telnet session. I'm connecting via telnet ok, but for some reason the command is not issued. I will admit, I know very little about the subject, but a push in the right direction could...

butteryak

To limit certain users so that they can only log in on certain IP's or mac addresses.

butteryak

got it

/tool user-manager user reset-counters [find group-name="xxxxx"]

butteryak

I suppose my terminology was not correct on that. Actually the "group" referred to in the user manager is actually the "profile". So how do I reset the counters for all users with the same profile?

I really need to figure this out, hope someone can help!!

Thanks
B

butteryak

Ok, so in the usermanager I can create users, and specify groups(profiles) for users. I"m wondering if it's possible to create a script that will reset counters for specific groups?

Any help would be much appreciated.....I reallllly need to be able to do this!

Thanks folks!!!

B

butteryak

I've been poking around for this, but havnt seen anything yet, so excuse me if this is a repeat, and point me in the right direction. But I'm hoping to create a script that will delete exhausted prepaid customers when their time/usage is exhausted. This would save me a great deal of trouble and trai...

butteryak

ha thats funny,
I just figured it out like 30 seconds before your post, I was just looking it up to tell you....

thanks doug.....

butteryak

Yeah I had to dig a bit to find that command, somtimes the routeros documentation leaves a little to be desired, as far as finding things goes. I see the logic here, although I dont know the syntax. I"m getting this error at the "set:" command. "expected variable name " the ...

butteryak

I'm using the User Manager with local Radius. Usermanager is stored on the primary store. I dug a bit more and found this command: /tool user-manager database save name=BUuserman Can i assuming that this will do what I want. then just create a scheduler that will perform this once a day? like this: ...

butteryak

For some odd reason I lost all my past accounting on my router.... erased..... poof....gone......I did do a reboot last week, The loss may coincide with that, but I'm uncertain, can't remember the exact time /day of reboot. I have rebooted today to see if that caused the current accounting to be los...

butteryak

Ok, I understand how to modify the status page html, My question is, I'm wondering if there is a variable for displaying transfer limit and transfer limit remaining. In the usermanager there are options for download/upload/transfer. I have set the transfer limit as I want to limit by total upload/do...

butteryak

Just a quick question. I've installed version 3.3 onto an alix board, I installed 3.3 because I had read somewhere that for some reason, folks had more success putting version 3 onto the alixPC and then upgrading to 4. So for now I only have a demo license, and I want to go ahead and purchase a leve...

butteryak

Unfortunately, I do not have any experience with the user manager.......yet... .I know it operates a bit differently than using the standard hospot user tables. I have yet to see what sort of effect integrating the user manager has on what I have done. I think the user manager utilizes a different d...

butteryak

figured it out. I simply put the "statustable.html" in another folder, renamed it to status.html and it works. Another bug that showed up, is if users time runs out. the bottem part of my status page (statusform.html) does not "refresh" and thus remains the "logoff" but...

butteryak

unless, of course there is a much easier way of doing what I am trying to do

butteryak

Ok, So I've been working on modifying the hotspot code to work for my situation. Basically the issue I was running into, was people closing their browser without logging off, thus the logoff popup dissapears, and if somone jumps in before the idle time is up, the previous user is still logged in. :D...

butteryak

well, I've followed all the install directions and I'm running the dude, as root. still I have no ping from the dude running in wine. I just switched over to linux, and I imported my old config, everything comes up fine. but there is no ping. anyone have any ideas what else I can look at. I'm runnin...
