Development
From WanWiki
There is a development server on the WAN, that provides a bit of a development “area” for people that interested, like for example development of the wifimap.
Available are:
- web
- mysql (incl. phpMyAdmin access)
- cvs (incl. auto deployment to web)
- daily backup of cvs and sql
- local ssh access on waldorf
So if you need any of those for your own project, you can contact me and I’ll supply you with an account to use this development platform.
If you’re wondering who or what waldorf is: It’s the Cobalt RAQ server, that is one of the public hosts for the Wan.
Current active projects:
Cacti Templates
The cacti templates repository contains a selection of templates specific to monitoring of wireless platforms like Mikrotik. All templates are minimum Cacti Version 0.8.6i.
Access via CVS:
/usr/bin/cvs -d :pserver:%USER%@thewan.net:/var/lib/cvs co cacti
There is an overall host template xml/cacti_host_template_mikrotik_routeros.xml, that has uses the templates available here.
A snapshot of the repository has been uploaded to http://coyote.ie.tuxbox.nu/~marlow/cacti/.

Mikrotik RouterOS Signal using SNMP
Source: Templates by mojiro from Athens Wireless Metropolitan Network, script and modifications for use via SNMP and multiple clients by Marlow
This template supports ap-bridge mode, client mode and multiple clients. Queries are done via SNMP, so no configuration needed on the router beyond SNMP.
When adding a link, the remote host has to be associated. Interfaces, that have no connection, will not be listed.
Installation
- Copy script_server/mikrotik_wireless_interfaces.xml to <cactidir>/resource/script_server/ on the Cacti server.
- Copy scripts/mikrotik_wireless_interfaces.php to <cactidir>/site/scripts/ on the Cacti server.
- Import xml/cacti_data_query_mikrotik_get_wireless_interfaces_mac_based.xml.
- Import xml/cacti_data_template_mikrotik_wireless_signal_strength_mac_based.xml.
- Import xml/cacti_graph_template_mikrotik_signal_strength_mac_based.xml.
