enable/disable route script

Tue Dec 11, 2007 11:25 am

hi m8s

Im new to scripting so give a break 8)
i need to make script that enables/disables route

Script: ip route {print}{disable 0}
It should disable route0 but it doesn’t. When I do it from command line it disables it, but as soon as I enter it into script source window it fails me. What do I do wrong ?

For example
Script: ip route add dst-address=x.x.x.x/x gateway=x.x.x.x
Works fine for me both command line and script source window.

using 2.9.46

in any case support have sent me the solution if any1 else needs 8)

It is not possible to use number of rule in scripts.
Because print is required before, it is not possible to run print in script.

So to make your script working, add comment to script like comment=gateway1, Then use the following script,

'ip route disable [find comment=gateway1]'

Hi,

Can you send me the script to my id kvkrisshna@yahoo.com

My actual necessity is
I have two ISPs connected to my mikrotik router both connected on ethernet Please find the diagram attached and due to the network design the failover does not happen for which i need a script which will disable the primary gateway (Point to Point IP of first ISP on ISP End) and should enable the secondary default route.

Help from anyone is appreciated.

Regards,
K.V.Krisshna
