CMD Scripting examples

This section contains some useful scripts and shows all available scripting features. Script examples used in this

section were tested with the latest 3.x version.

Create a file

In v3.x it is not possible to create file directly, however there is a workaround

/file print file=myFile

/file set myFile.txt contents=""

Check if IP on interface have changed

Sometimes provider gives dynamic IP addresses. This script will compare if dynamic IP address is changed.

:global currentIP;

:local newIP [/ip address get [find interface="ether1"] address];

:if ($newIP != $currentIP) do={

:put "ip address $currentIP changed to $newIP";

:set currentIP $newIP;

}
