API

The API page introduces RouterOS's Application Programming Interface for secure communication with routers, detailing syntax rules, sentence structure, encoding methods, and supported commands like login and cancel for configuration management.

CMR

CMR is the centralized monitoring platform for fleets of RouterOS devices. It allows for the fleet-wide updates, monitoring and alert management.

CMR-Client

The CMR-client is the device-side component that connects to a CMR server and is managed centrally from it.

Management Tools

Management tools documentation provides access to RouterOS administration interfaces and utilities including WinBox, WebFig, SSH, RoMON, Dude, Quick Set, FlashFig, branding options, and mobile apps for device management and customization.

MikroTik mobile app

The MikroTik mobile app provides both basic and advanced configuration options for MikroTik routers on Android and iOS, offering a user-friendly setup interface with QR code download links and quick configuration steps.

Python3 Example

This page provides a Python3 example client for interacting with RouterOS via its API, demonstrating sentence exchange, plain-text and legacy challenge-response login, and socket communication over the API and API-SSL services.

REST API

RouterOS REST API: enable HTTPS access with a least-privilege user, read and change the configuration with GET, PUT, PATCH and DELETE, run any console command with POST, work within the 60-second limit and per-user sessions, and build scripts, integrations and dashboards on it.

RoMON

RoMON (Router Management Overlay Network) builds an independent MAC-layer overlay between routers for management: peer discovery, MAC ping, RoMON SSH, message authentication with secrets, and per-port participation with cost.

Scripting

RouterOS scripting enables automation through user-defined scripts triggered by events like system scheduling or traffic monitoring. Scripts use a command-line syntax with optional prefixes, named parameters, and physical line formatting, supporting both single-line and multi-line execution.

WinBox

WinBox v4 is a native cross-platform GUI utility for administering MikroTik RouterOS on Windows, Linux, and macOS. It replaces the legacy Wine-based WinBox v3 with a native application, providing secure connections through AES128-CBC-SHA encryption and ECSRP authentication.

WinBox v3 (Legacy)

WinBox v3 is a GUI utility for administering MikroTik RouterOS with Linux/macOS support via Wine. This legacy page covers the Wine-based WinBox v3 — use WinBox v4 for a native cross-platform experience.
