The `mikrotik` platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to a [Mikrotik Routerboard](http://routerboard.com) based router.
|
|
|
|
You need to enable the RouterOS API to use this platform.
|
|
|
|
Terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/ip service
|
|
set api disabled=no port=8728
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Web Frontend:
|
|
|
|
Go to **IP** -> **Services** -> **API** and enable it.
|
|
|
|
Make sure that port 8728 or the port you choose is accessible from your network.
|
|
|
|
To use a Mikrotik router in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
device_tracker:
|
|
- platform: mikrotik
|
|
host: IP_ADDRESS
|
|
username: ADMIN_USERNAME
|
|
password: ADMIN_PASSWORD
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|

|
|
{% endconfiguration %}
|
|
|
|
To use api_ssl service further configuration is required at RouterOS side. You have to upload or generate a certificate for api\-ssl service. Here is an example for a self signed certificate:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/certificate add common-name="Self signed demo certificate for API" days-valid=3650 name="Self signed demo certificate for API" key-usage=digital-signature,key-encipherment,tls-server,key-cert-sign,crl-sign
|
|
/certificate sign "Self signed demo certificate for API"
|
|
/ip service set api-ssl certificate="Self signed demo certificate for API"
|
|
/ip service enable api-ssl
|
|
```
|
|
If everything is working you can disable the pure api service:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/ip service disable api
|
|
```
|
|
