The Dude provides the functions of a log server, but in an extremely limited form, there are no search and analysis tools, and the server itself is actually only a centralized collection point for logs, with all the features inherent in Mikrotik. The logs collected by The Dude are also stored in RAM and are limited to 10,000 entries when the router is rebooted with The Dude, they are lost. Also, there are no settings that allow you to change this behavior, even if you use CHR and are not constrained in resources, both in memory and in disk space.īut despite the very, very limited opportunities, you should not neglect the log server in The Dude, with a competent approach it can bring quite tangible benefits, and in general a situation when there is at least some kind of log server is always better than a situation when there is no log server.The console is used for accessing the MikroTik Router's configuration and management features using text terminals, either remotely using a serial port, telnet, SSH, console screen within WinBox, or directly using monitor and keyboard. The course covers all topics from the official MTCNA program. The author is the official trainer of MikroTik. The material is suitable both for those who have been working with MikroTik equipment for a long time, and for those who have not yet held it in their hands. It includes 162 video lessons, 45 laboratory works, self-test questions and a synopsis.įirst of all, let’s touch on the features of logging on Mikrotik devices. In order to save flash memory resources, the log is written to RAM and is limited to the last 1000 entries. When the device is turned off or rebooted, the logs are lost. In general, if you use the logs correctly and send only really important events there, then 1000 lines is quite enough, and in the case of diagnostics, you can always enable detailed logs for the necessary services. ![]() You can master MikroTik using the online course “MikroTik equipment configuration”. Collecting and studying logs is an important part of the system administrator’s work, helping to understand any, even the most difficult and confusing situation. Likewise, if you ask for help, the first thing you will be asked to provide logs. When there are few devices and services in your network, then each of them can collect logs independently, but as the number of devices increases, you want to have a single point of information collection. And it may well be the server The Dude, which, although it does not reach the full-fledged server for collecting logs, can still be useful.
