        <h1>MAC-Telnet for Linux</h1>

<p>Console tools for connecting to, and serving, devices using MikroTik RouterOS MAC-Telnet protocol.</p>

<h2>Installation</h2>

<p>Then download source tarball, extract, compile and install:</p>

<pre><code>wget http://github.com/haakonnessjoen/MAC-Telnet/tarball/master
tar zxvf haakonness*.tar.gz
cd haakonness*/
make all install
</code></pre>

<p>Now you're ready.</p>

<p>TIP: You can use the well known "expect" tool to automate/script dialogues via mactelnet!</p>

<h2>Usage</h2>

<pre><code># mactelnet -h
Usage: mactelnet &lt;MAC|identity&gt; [-h] [-n] [-t &lt;timeout&gt;] [-u &lt;user&gt;] [-p &lt;password&gt;] [-U &lt;user&gt;] | -l

Parameters:
  MAC            MAC-Address of the RouterOS/mactelnetd device. Use mndp to
                 discover it.
  identity       The identity/name of your destination device. Uses
                 MNDP protocol to find it.
  -l             List/Search for routers nearby. (using MNDP)
  -n             Do not use broadcast packets. Less insecure but requires
                 root privileges.
  -t &lt;timeout&gt;   Amount of seconds to wait for a response on each interface.
  -u &lt;user&gt;      Specify username on command line.
  -p &lt;password&gt;  Specify password on command line.
  -U &lt;user&gt;      Drop privileges to this user. Used in conjunction with -n
                 for security.
  -q             Quiet mode.
  -h             This help.
</code></pre>

<h2>MAC-Ping usage</h2>

<pre><code># macping -h
Usage: macping &lt;MAC&gt; [-h] [-c &lt;count&gt;] [-s &lt;packet size&gt;]

Parameters:
  MAC       MAC-Address of the RouterOS/mactelnetd device.
  -s        Specify size of ping packet.
  -c        Number of packets to send. (0 = for ever)
  -h        This help.
</code></pre>

<p>Example:</p>

<pre><code># macping 0:c:42:43:58:a5
0:c:42:43:58:a5 56 byte, ping time 1.17 ms
0:c:42:43:58:a5 56 byte, ping time 1.07 ms
0:c:42:43:58:a5 56 byte, ping time 1.20 ms
0:c:42:43:58:a5 56 byte, ping time 0.65 ms
0:c:42:43:58:a5 56 byte, ping time 1.19 ms

5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.65/1.06/1.20 ms
</code></pre>

<p>Or for use in bash-scripting:</p>

<pre><code># macping 0:c:42:43:58:a5 -c 2 &gt;/dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 || ( echo "No answer for 2 pings" | mail -s "router down" my.email@address.com )
