Client

The examples on this page use the PEAR2_Net_RouterOS package. You can install it with the PEAR(2) installer, or just download and extract the files from the "src" directory wherever you wish.

If you use the PEAR(2) installer, all dependencies will be installed automatically from the pear2.php.net channel. They are also included in the archive, so if you just extract the archive, there's nothing extra you need to get.

NOTE: The client requires PHP 5.3.0 or later.

NOTE: The package should, in theory, work for large replies and commands, but has not been tested with such. Please report any such experiences (positive or negative ones) at the forums.

Examples

All examples assume that the files from the "src" folder are somehow directly accessible to your PHP file (either via editing your include_path, or by simply extracting the contents of the "src" folder where your own PHP file is). Also, the router is assumed to be accessible with a local IP to the device PHP runs from. The client itself could work without these restrictions - they are specified here for clarity.

An HTML form to make RouterOS ping someone

This example is particularly useful when you want to ping someone from inside the network while browsing the page from outside the network.

<?php
namespace PEAR2\Net\RouterOS;
require_once 'PEAR2/Net/RouterOS/Autoload.php';

if (isset($_GET['act'])) {//This is merely to ensure the form was submitted.

    //Adjust RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new Client('192.168.0.1', 'admin', 'password');

    //This is just one approach that allows you to create a multy purpose form,
    //with ping being just one action.
    if ($_GET['act'] === 'Ping' && isset($_GET['address'])) {
        //Ping can run for unlimited time, but for PHP,
        //we need to actually stop it at some point.
        $pingRequest = new Request('/ping count=3');
        $results = $client->sendSync($pingRequest->setArgument('address', $_GET['address']));
    }
}

Changing hotspot user passwords

The script assumes you have already made a hotspot and do NOT make this file accessible in a walled garden, i.e. users must be logged in to access it.

<?php
namespace PEAR2\Net\RouterOS;
require_once 'PEAR2/Net/RouterOS/Autoload.php';

$errors = array();

try {
    //Adjust RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new Client('192.168.0.1', 'admin', 'password');
    $activeUserEntry = $client->sendSync(new Request(
        '/ip hotspot active print', null, Query::where('address', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])
    ));
} catch(\Exception $e) {
    $errors[] = $e->toString();
}

if (isset($_POST['password']) && isset($_POST['password2'])) {
    if ($_POST['password'] !== $_POST['password2']) {
        $errors[] = 'Passwords do not match.';
    } else {
        //Here's the fun part - actually changing the password
        $setRequest = new Request('/ip hotspot users set');
        $client($setRequest
            ->setArgument('password', $_POST['password'])
            ->setArgument('numbers', $client(new Request(
                '/ip hotspot users print .proplist=.id', null,
                Query::where('name', $activeUserEntry->getArgument('name'))
            ))->getArgument('.id'))
        );
    }
}

MAC finder

Tired of asking your customers to tell you their MAC address (and go over the same "click here and..." instructions over and over again)? Well, using the following script, you can now... switch the insructions to "go to this web page... by clicking here and...":

<?php
namespace PEAR2\Net\RouterOS;
require_once 'PEAR2/Net/RouterOS/Autoload.php';

?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
        <title>Your MAC address</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>
            <?php
try {
    //Adjust RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new Client('192.168.0.1', 'admin', 'password');
    $mac = $client->sendSync(new Request(
        '/ip arp print .proplist=mac-address', null, Query::where('address', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])
    ))->getArgument('mac-address');
    if (null !== $mac) {
        echo 'Your MAC address is: ', $mac;
    } else {
        echo 'Your IP (', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],
        ") is not part of our network, and because of that, we can't determine your MAC address.";
    }
} catch(\Exception $e) {
    echo "We're sorry, but we can't determine your MAC address right now.";
}
?>
        </h1>
    </body>
