Hello fellow #network engineers !
If you use Mikrotik devices in your network, as well as Prometheus to monitor them (or you would like to), you might be interested in what we just open-sourced at @enix :
https://github.com/enix/routeros-rest-exporter
It's an exporter for routerOS that queries its REST API. Yes, another one, but the gotcha is that you can easily add new metrics without touching the code.
I'm here if you have questions !
@enix @networkguy #neteng check it out if you use Mikrotik
@networkguy @enix I've also worked with my own REST API exporter.
One thing I noticed is that one should first query the CPU utilization and after that do the other query. E.g. my trusty old Mikrotik CPU loads were quite high after doing interface query skewing the results.
