Hi!
Could you give me some command to write lost internet connection to log?
I was trying it over script, the script pinged the host for 5 times(the host was unreachable), but it did not write to log.
How to put something to script to write to log?

You generally use the following:

:log info "message goes here"

I find it can only put something in your log once. eg: "Starting Script".

What I do to have log entries, is to call up another script (which is basically the script doing the actual work), and in it's first line put:

:log info "this event is now happening"

Hope this helps

Change the Host to the gateway or any other IP on the internet.

/ tool netwatch add host=a.b.c.d timeout=1s interval=1m up-script=":log info \"Internet Up\"" down-script=":log info \"Internet Down\"" comment="" disabled=no

Off course, NETWATCH is by far a better way to go...

ok, thanks it works using netwatch(it writes message to log). Is it possible to write log to some txt file on hard disk(in routerboard) to be stored there, after rebooting?

I read routeros manual system logging, but hard to understand that(little examples of using).

info, script set to log to harddrive in /system logging

ok, and where I find that txt file with the informations from log file saved to disk, I was looking in files(mikrotik) and there is no log txt file.

It's written to the regular system log. But entries which are written to "disk" will survive a reboot.
So a "/log print" will show those entries, too...

Best regards,

when you use /log print you can set what to print (memory, disk)

OK Thank you very much, everythings fine now
