Background

This is Prometheus exporter for Mikrotik routers and switches.

Usage

Supply MIKROTIK_USER, MIKROTIK_PASSWORD and comma separated TARGETS as environment variables via .env file. Optionally configure PROMETHEUS_BEARER_TOKEN for securing the metrics endpoint.

Why not SNMP

SNMP for whatever reason is horribly slow on Mikrotik, see here for discussion. It takes 2+ minutes to scrape over SNMP vs few seconds over management API. Also PoE status codes are not fully documented for SNMP, see forum post here.
