Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The primary use of this script is to notify about RouterOS updates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Run from a terminal you can start the update process or schedule it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Centrally managing update process of several devices is possibly by
|
2022-05-06 06:20:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
specifying versions safe to be updated on a web server. Versions seen
|
|
|
|
|
|
in neighbor discovery can be specified to be safe as well.

|
Also installing patch updates (where just last digit is increased)
|
|
|

|
|
automatically is supported.

|
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Be notified when run from scheduler or run it manually:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2022-05-11 07:58:53 +00:00
|
|
|
|
/system/script/run check-routeros-update;

|
|
|
|

If an update is found you can install it right away.

|
Installing script [packages-update](packages-update.md) gives extra options.
