The MikroTik device page

Every MikroTik has its own page at /dashboard/devices/mikrotik/<id>. Open it from Devices → All Devices or Devices → Mikrotiks by clicking the router’s row. This is where you check a router’s health, set up services on it, fix configuration problems and reach its logs and history.

The buttons along the top depend on your role and on whether the router is online.

Button What it does
Enable SSH / Disable SSH Turns the router’s SSH service on or off.
+ Hotspot / + Hotspot Server Builds a WiFi hotspot, or a hotspot server only, on the router. See Hotspot.
+ PPPoE Creates a PPPoE server on an interface. See PPPoE.
TV Connect Switches all hotspot server profiles to MAC and MAC-cookie login and disables HTTPS, so smart TVs and similar devices can stay logged in.
Public RADIUS Makes the router use the public RADIUS server instead of the default one. A temporary workaround only (see below).
Script The onboarding script. See Add a MikroTik router.
Delete Removes the device.
Remote Access Generates a time-limited remote access link to the router.
Remote Logging Makes the router send its logs to ISPMan.
View Logs Opens the router’s log stream.
Telemetry Opens the telemetry charts. Only shown when telemetry is enabled.
More Configuration Backups, Device Jobs, Change View, Setup Device, Download Hotspot/PPPoE/Static Customers (Excel), Hotspot Server Script, PPPoE Server Script, Reboot, Re-Onboard and Start Manual Onboarding.

The Configuration Audit card checks the router against what ISPMan needs: RADIUS, the LAN-detect rules (including hotspot walled-garden bypasses) and, based on the services used in the last 7 days, the PPPoE firewall rules, the hotspot server count and the addresses customers must reach before they sign in.

  • Click Run Config Check to re-scan now.
  • Each issue shows the problem and a Fix summary. Click Apply Fix to let ISPMan correct it, Dismiss to close it (it comes back on the next check if the problem is still there), or Ignore to stop raising that check on this router. Ignored checks are listed on the card with an Unmute button.
  • On All Devices, the Config Audit column shows open issues per router. Audit checks one router and Audit All MikroTiks queues a check for every MikroTik. Results appear as each finishes.

Device Info shows the board name, architecture, CPU and load, memory, storage, uptime and RouterOS version, read live from the router. Below it, the page loads tables straight from the router, such as interfaces, bridges and bridge ports, DHCP servers, IP pools, WiFi, hotspots and their profiles, hotspot users, active hotspot users, hosts and cookies, and active PPPoE sessions.

Use More → Change View to pick which tables you see. Your choice is saved for your login.

Owners, admins, operators and devices admins see the router’s IP Address, the Full-access and Read-only usernames and passwords (masked, click to copy) and the Winbox controls. See Remote access.

Reset Admin Password sets a new password for the router’s own admin user. ISPMan makes the change but doesn’t keep the password, so write it down: the old one stops working.

Device isolation and payment reference login

Section titled “Device isolation and payment reference login”
  • Isolate Device: when on, customers on this router see only the hotspot packages assigned to it and use the payment settings assigned to it. Use Assigned Hotspot Packages to choose the packages. If none are assigned, customers see no packages.
  • Payment Reference Login: lets customers on this router sign in with a payment reference, in Sharing mode (several customers may use one reference) or Migration mode (the old subscriptions linked to that reference are ended and a new one is created here).

Click Edit Device next to Device Info to open /dashboard/devices/mikrotik/<id>/edit. Here you can change:

Field Notes
Name, Location of Router Display details.
Winbox Port (on device) Change this if the router’s Winbox runs on a port other than 8291.
Branch Assign the router to a branch.
Hotspot Payment Provider, PPPoE Payment Provider Which payment setup customers on this router use.
Enable Telemetry Starts SNMP polling and traffic-flow collection for this router. Saves as soon as you toggle it.

The same page has the router’s Speed override: one upload/download speed for every session on this router, with an optional start and end time and a choice of services.

With telemetry on, Telemetry charts the router’s CPU, memory, uptime, temperature, sessions, SNMP round-trip, interface throughput and utilisation, and more. Choose a range of 1h, 6h, 24h, 7d or 30d, or click Go live to stream fresh samples every 5 seconds for a short burst.

  • “No telemetry collected for this device yet.” means SNMP polling hasn’t reached it. The router needs an SNMP agent enabled and must be reachable over the management tunnel.
  • Where the traffic went needs traffic-flow export on the router. Click Enable flow export to switch it on (managers only).
  • Active alerts appear at the top. Members subscribed to alerts are notified through their alert settings.
  • View Logs shows the router’s own log lines as they arrive, with a date range and a search box. Remote Logging must be on.
  • More → Device Jobs lists the background tasks run against this router (for example hotspot and server setup steps), with state, attempts and errors. Owners, admins, operators and devices admins can Re-run a finished or failed job.

More → Reboot restarts the router now. Under Device Management Actions you’ll also find Schedule Reboot and Schedule Script.
