Forward log messages via notification
=====================================
[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
Description
-----------
RouterOS supports sending log messages via e-mail or to a syslog server.
This has some limitation, however:
* does not work early after boot if network connectivity is not
yet established
* lots of messages generate a flood of mails
* Telegram is not supported
The script is intended to be run periodically. It collects log messages
and forwards them via notification.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the script:
$ScriptInstallUpdate log-forward;
... and add a scheduler:
/ system scheduler add interval=1m name=log-forward on-event="/ system script run log-forward;" start-time=startup;
Configuration
-------------
The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, these are the parameters:
* `LogForwardFilter`: define topics *not* to be forwarded
* `LogForwardFilterMessage`: define message text *not* to be forwarded
Also notification settings are required for e-mail and telegram.
