Qué vigila DumbMonit

Routers and switches running RouterOS 7: whether RouterOS and the RouterBOOT firmware have fallen behind, CPU, memory and storage, temperatures, fans and power supplies, and the state, traffic, errors and link losses of every interface. DumbMonit reads the REST API that RouterOS 7 serves under /rest, with a user in a group that can only read. It sends GET requests and nothing else.

Uso habitual. Router or switch: versions and firmware behind, CPU, memory, sensors, interface errors
