Monitoring port flapping or OSPF
Hi all, just wondering if anybody can recommend any tools for monitoring port flaps or OSPF status changes on Mikrotik devices ? We use a host of monitoring products but the SNMP support within RouterOS is limited/non- existent for these items, and other monitoring tools seem to be unable to pickup some slight issues. Thanks Paul
Have you considered syslog, with the syslog server sending alarms on particular content? Assuming your link to the syslog server remains up, of course... The AusNOG conference this year had several sessions on monitoring.

Hi Paul, I'd suggest syslog too. I monitor exactly the same things and over some of our longer radio links for instance I get the occasional notification of a port going down and up again (Mimosa radios...) and the associated OSPF messages. Of course the NBN links are always perfect and we never see any logs regarding them. ;-) Andrew On 30 November 2017 at 10:59, Philip Loenneker < Philip.Loenneker@tasmanet.com.au> wrote:
