Description

This script uploads binary backup (/ system backup save) and complete configuration export (/ export terse) to external server.

Requirements and installation

Just install the script:

$ScriptInstallUpdate upload-backup;

Configuration

The configuration goes to global-config-overlay, these are the parameters:

  • BackupSendBinary: whether to send binary backup

  • BackupSendExport: whether to send configuration export

  • BackupPassword: password to encrypt the backup with

  • BackupUploadUrl: url to upload to

  • BackupUploadUser: username for server authentication

  • BackupUploadPass: password for server authentication

Also notification settings are required for e-mail and telegram.

Issues with SFTP client

The RouterOS SFTP client is picky if it comes to authentication methods. I had to disable all but password authentication on server side. For openssh edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add a directive like this, changed for your needs:

Match User mikrotik
    AuthenticationMethods password

Usage and invocation

Just run the script:

/ system script run upload-backup;

Creating a scheduler may be an option:

/ system scheduler add interval=1w name=upload-backup on-event="/ system script run upload-backup;" start-time=09:25:00;
