  • Configure PPP dialout connection
/interface ppp-client
add port=serial0 user=ashish password=ashish123 phone=172233 add-default-route=yes

[admin@mikrotik] interface ppp-client> print
Flags: X - disabled, R - running
 0 X  name="ppp-out1" max-mtu=1500 max-mru=1500 port=serial0 user="ashish"
         password="ashish123" profile=default phone="172233" dial-command="ATDT"
         modem-init="" null-modem=no dial-on-demand=no add-default-route=yes
         use-peer-dns=no allow=pap,chap,mschap1,mschap2
  • By default, It is Disabled, You need to enable it
[admin@mikrotik] interface ppp-client> enable 0
