Since RouterOS v6.14 MikroTik offers multiple services for your RouterBOARD devices that are connected to the Internet. These services are meant to ease the inconveniences when configuring, setting up, controlling, maintaining or monitoring your device. More detailed list of available services that IP/Cloud can provide can be found below. | |||

{{ Note | Since RouterOS v6.43 your device will use '''cloud2.mikrotik.com''' to communicate with the MikroTik's Cloud server. Older versions will use '''cloud.mikrotik.com''' to communicate with the MikroTik's Cloud server. }} | |||
{{ | {{ Warning | Be aware that if router has multiple public IP addresses and/or multiple internet gateways, the exact IP used for the communicating with the MikroTik's Cloud server may not be as expected! }} | ||
{{ | {{ Note | IP/Cloud requires a working paid license on Cloud Hosted Router (CHR). }} | ||
== DDNS == | |||
DDNS or Dynamic DNS is a service that updates the IPv4 address for A records and the IPv6 address for AAAA records periodically. Such a service is very useful when your ISP has provided a dynamic IP address that changes periodically, but you always need an address that you can use to connect to your device remotely. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's DDNS service: | |||
* Checks for outgoing IP address change: every 60 seconds | |||
* Waits for the MikroTik's Cloud server's response: 15 seconds | |||
* DDNS record TTL: 60 seconds | |||
* Sends encrypted packets to '''cloud.mikrotik.com''' or '''cloud2.mikrotik.com''' using UDP/15252 port | |||
Since RouterOS v6.43 if your device is able to reach '''cloud2.mikrotik.com''' using IPv6, then a DNS '''AAAA''' record is going to be created for your public IPv6 address. If your device is only able to reach cloud2.mikrotik.com using IPv4, then only a DNS '''A''' record is going to be created for your public IPv4 address. | |||
To enable the DDNS service: | |||
<pre> | <pre> | ||
[admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud set ddns-enabled=yes | [admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud set ddns-enabled=yes | ||
[admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud print | [admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud print | ||

public-address-ipv6: 2a02:610:7501:1000::2 | |||
dns-name: 529c0491d41c.sn.mynetname.net | |||
status: updated | |||
</pre> | </pre> | ||
{{ Note | When the service is enable, a DNS name will be stored on the MikroTik's Cloud server permanently and this DNS name will resolve to the last IP that your IP has sent to the MikroTik's Cloud server. }} | |||
To disable the DDNS service: | |||
<pre> | <pre> | ||
/ip cloud set ddns-enabled=no | |||
</pre> | </pre> | ||
{{ Note | As soon as you disable the service, your device sends a command to the MikroTik's Cloud server to remove the stored DNS name. }} | |||
To manually trigger a DNS update: | |||
<pre> | <pre> | ||
[admin@MikroTik] > | [admin@MikroTik] > /ip cloud force-update | ||
</pre> | </pre> | ||
==Properties | {{Note | To actually connect to the device using the DNS name provided by cloud server, user must configure router's firewall to permit such access from the WAN port. (Default MikroTik configuration does not permit access to services such as WebFig, WinBox etc. from WAN port)}} | ||
== Update time == | |||
Correct time on a device is important, it cause issues with the system's logs, break HTTPS connectivity to the device, tunnel connectivity and other issues. To have your system's clock updated, you can use [[ Manual:System/Time#NTP_client_and_server | NTP]] or [[ Manual:System/Time#SNTP_client | SNTP]], though it requires you to specify an IP address for the NTP Server. In most cases NTP/SNTP is not required in order to simply have a correct time set on the device, for simplicity you can use the IP Cloud's update time service. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's update time service: | |||
* Approximate time (accuracy of several seconds, depends on UDP packet latency) | |||
* Updates time after a reboot and during every DDNS update (when router's WAN IP address changes or after the force-update command is used) | |||
* Sends encrypted packets to '''cloud.mikrotik.com''' or '''cloud2.mikrotik.com''' using UDP/15252 port | |||
* Detects time-zone depending on the router's public IP address and our commercial database | |||
To enable the time update service: | |||
<pre> | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /ip cloud set update-time=yes | |||
</pre> | |||
To enable automatic time zone detection: | |||
<pre> | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system clock set time-zone-autodetect=yes | |||
</pre> | |||
{{ Note | If <code>/ip cloud update-time</code> is set to <code>auto</code>, then device's clock will be updated with MikroTik's Cloud server time (if no [[ Manual:System/Time#NTP_client_and_server | NTP]] or [[ Manual:System/Time#SNTP_client | SNTP]] client is enabled). }} | |||
== Backup == | |||
Since RouterOS v6.44 it is possible to store your device's [[ Manual:Configuration_Management#System_Backup | backup]] on MikroTik's Cloud server. The backup service allows you to upload an encrypted backup file, download it and apply the backup file to your device as long as your device is able to reach MikroTik's Cloud server. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's backup service: | |||
* 1 free backup slot for each device | |||
* Allowed backup size: 15MB | |||
* Sends encrypted packets to '''cloud2.mikrotik.com''' using UDP/15252 and TCP/15252 port | |||
To create a new backup and upload it the MikroTik's Cloud server: | |||
<pre> | |||
/system backup cloud upload-file action=create-and-upload password=test123!!! | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud print | |||
0 name="cloud-20180921-162649" size=13.2KiB ros-version="6.44beta9" date=sep/21/2018 16:26:49 status="ok" secret-download-key="AbCdEfGhIjKlM1234567890" | |||
</pre> | |||
{{ Note | The <code>create-and-upload</code> action command will create a new system's backup file,encrypt the backup file with AES using the provided password and upload it. For <code>upload</code> action command the <var>password</var> property has no effect since the <code>upload</code> action command uploads only already created system's backup files. }} | |||
To download the uploaded backup file and save it to device's memory: | |||
<pre> | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud download-file action=download number=0 | |||
### OR | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud download-file action=download secret-download-key=AbCdEfGhIjKlM1234567890 | |||
</pre> | |||
{{ Warning | The <var>secret-download-key</var> is a unique identifier that can be used to download your encrypted backup to your other devices. Since you can download your encrypted backup from any location and any device by using the <var>secret-download-key</var>, then you should try to keep this identifier a secret. The downloaded backup is still encrypted using AES, nevertheless make sure you are using a strong password! }} | |||
To remove the uploaded backup: | |||
<pre> | |||
/system backup cloud remove-file number=0 | |||
</pre> | |||
To upload an existing backup file (created previously): | |||
<pre> | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup save encryption=aes-sha256 name=old_backup password=test123!!! | |||
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud upload-file action=upload src-file=old_backup.backup | |||

</pre> | |||
{{ Note | Make sure that the backup was encrypted using AES, otherwise the IP/Cloud will reject the backup upload. Since there is only 1 free backup slot per device, then you need to remove the existing backup before uploading a new one. }} | |||
{{ Warning | When importing a backup all MAC addresses are set to the MAC addresses that the device was using. This is useful when you are replacing a device that has failed, but this might not be desired when applying the same backup on multiple devices since it will set the same MAC addresses on multiple devices, which can cause connectivity issues. You can always use the <code>reset-mac-address</code> command on each interface to set the original MAC address back. }} | |||

Applies to RouterOS: v6.14 +
Summary
Since RouterOS v6.14 MikroTik offers multiple services for your RouterBOARD devices that are connected to the Internet. These services are meant to ease the inconveniences when configuring, setting up, controlling, maintaining or monitoring your device. More detailed list of available services that IP/Cloud can provide can be found below.
Note: Since RouterOS v6.27 "ip cloud enabled" is renamed to "ip cloud ddns-enabled" this may require some changes in your scripts if you are using this feature in a script.
Services
Note: Since RouterOS v6.43 your device will use cloud2.mikrotik.com to communicate with the MikroTik's Cloud server. Older versions will use cloud.mikrotik.com to communicate with the MikroTik's Cloud server.
Warning: Be aware that if router has multiple public IP addresses and/or multiple internet gateways, the exact IP used for the communicating with the MikroTik's Cloud server may not be as expected!
Note: IP/Cloud requires a working paid license on Cloud Hosted Router (CHR).
DDNS
DDNS or Dynamic DNS is a service that updates the IPv4 address for A records and the IPv6 address for AAAA records periodically. Such a service is very useful when your ISP has provided a dynamic IP address that changes periodically, but you always need an address that you can use to connect to your device remotely. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's DDNS service:
- Checks for outgoing IP address change: every 60 seconds
- Waits for the MikroTik's Cloud server's response: 15 seconds
- DDNS record TTL: 60 seconds
- Sends encrypted packets to cloud.mikrotik.com or cloud2.mikrotik.com using UDP/15252 port
Since RouterOS v6.43 if your device is able to reach cloud2.mikrotik.com using IPv6, then a DNS AAAA record is going to be created for your public IPv6 address. If your device is only able to reach cloud2.mikrotik.com using IPv4, then only a DNS A record is going to be created for your public IPv4 address.
To enable the DDNS service:
[admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud set ddns-enabled=yes [admin@MikroTik] /ip cloud print ddns-enabled: yes ddns-update-interval: none update-time: yes public-address: 159.148.147.196 public-address-ipv6: 2a02:610:7501:1000::2 dns-name: 529c0491d41c.sn.mynetname.net status: updated
Note: When the service is enable, a DNS name will be stored on the MikroTik's Cloud server permanently and this DNS name will resolve to the last IP that your IP has sent to the MikroTik's Cloud server.
To disable the DDNS service:
/ip cloud set ddns-enabled=no
Note: As soon as you disable the service, your device sends a command to the MikroTik's Cloud server to remove the stored DNS name.
To manually trigger a DNS update:
[admin@MikroTik] > /ip cloud force-update
Note: To actually connect to the device using the DNS name provided by cloud server, user must configure router's firewall to permit such access from the WAN port. (Default MikroTik configuration does not permit access to services such as WebFig, WinBox etc. from WAN port)
Update time
Correct time on a device is important, it cause issues with the system's logs, break HTTPS connectivity to the device, tunnel connectivity and other issues. To have your system's clock updated, you can use NTP or SNTP, though it requires you to specify an IP address for the NTP Server. In most cases NTP/SNTP is not required in order to simply have a correct time set on the device, for simplicity you can use the IP Cloud's update time service. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's update time service:
- Approximate time (accuracy of several seconds, depends on UDP packet latency)
- Updates time after a reboot and during every DDNS update (when router's WAN IP address changes or after the force-update command is used)
- Sends encrypted packets to cloud.mikrotik.com or cloud2.mikrotik.com using UDP/15252 port
- Detects time-zone depending on the router's public IP address and our commercial database
To enable the time update service:
[admin@MikroTik] > /ip cloud set update-time=yes
To enable automatic time zone detection:
[admin@MikroTik] > /system clock set time-zone-autodetect=yes
Note: If /ip cloud update-time
is set to auto
, then device's clock will be updated with MikroTik's Cloud server time (if no NTP or SNTP client is enabled).
Backup
Since RouterOS v6.44 it is possible to store your device's backup on MikroTik's Cloud server. The backup service allows you to upload an encrypted backup file, download it and apply the backup file to your device as long as your device is able to reach MikroTik's Cloud server. Below you can find operation details that are relevant to the IP/Cloud's backup service:
- 1 free backup slot for each device
- Allowed backup size: 15MB
- Sends encrypted packets to cloud2.mikrotik.com using UDP/15252 and TCP/15252 port
To create a new backup and upload it the MikroTik's Cloud server:
/system backup cloud upload-file action=create-and-upload password=test123!!! [admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud print 0 name="cloud-20180921-162649" size=13.2KiB ros-version="6.44beta9" date=sep/21/2018 16:26:49 status="ok" secret-download-key="AbCdEfGhIjKlM1234567890"
Note: The create-and-upload
action command will create a new system's backup file,encrypt the backup file with AES using the provided password and upload it. For upload
action command the password property has no effect since the upload
action command uploads only already created system's backup files.
To download the uploaded backup file and save it to device's memory:
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud download-file action=download number=0 ### OR [admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud download-file action=download secret-download-key=AbCdEfGhIjKlM1234567890
Warning: The secret-download-key is a unique identifier that can be used to download your encrypted backup to your other devices. Since you can download your encrypted backup from any location and any device by using the secret-download-key, then you should try to keep this identifier a secret. The downloaded backup is still encrypted using AES, nevertheless make sure you are using a strong password!
To remove the uploaded backup:
/system backup cloud remove-file number=0
To upload an existing backup file (created previously):
[admin@MikroTik] > /system backup save encryption=aes-sha256 name=old_backup password=test123!!! [admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud upload-file action=upload src-file=old_backup.backup [admin@MikroTik] > /system backup cloud print 0 name="cloud-20180921-164044" size=13.2KiB ros-version="6.44beta9" date=sep/21/2018 16:40:44 status="ok" secret-download-key="AbCdEfGhIjKlM1234567890"
Note: Make sure that the backup was encrypted using AES, otherwise the IP/Cloud will reject the backup upload. Since there is only 1 free backup slot per device, then you need to remove the existing backup before uploading a new one.
Warning: When importing a backup all MAC addresses are set to the MAC addresses that the device was using. This is useful when you are replacing a device that has failed, but this might not be desired when applying the same backup on multiple devices since it will set the same MAC addresses on multiple devices, which can cause connectivity issues. You can always use the reset-mac-address
command on each interface to set the original MAC address back.
Properties
Sub-menu: /ip cloud
Property | Description |
---|---|
ddns-enabled (yes | no; Default: no) | If set to yes , then the device will send an encrypted message to the MikroTik's Cloud server. The server will then decrypt the message and verify that the sender is an authentic MikroTik device. If all is OK, then the MikroTik's Cloud server will create a DDNS record for this device and send a response to the device. Every minute the IP/Cloud service on the router will check if WAN IP address
matches the one sent to MikroTik's Cloud server and will send encrypted update to cloud server if IP address changes. |
ddns-update-interval (time, minimum 60 seconds; Default: none) | If set DDNS will attempt to connect IP Cloud servers at the set interval. If set to none it will continue to internally check IP address update and connect to IP Cloud servers as needed. Useful if IP address used is not on the router itself and thus, cannot be checked as a value internal to the router. |
update-time (yes | no; Default: yes) | If set to yes then router clock will be set to time, provided by cloud server IF there is no NTP or SNTP client enabled. If set to no , then IP/Cloud service will never update the device's clock. If update-time is set to yes , Clock will be updated even when ddns-enabled is set to no . |
public-address (read-only: address) | Shows device's IPv4 address that was sent to cloud server. This field is visible only after at least one IP Cloud request was successfully completed. |
