atajsic/mikrocount repository overview

⁠Mikrocount (atajsic fork)

⁠Introduction

Mikrocount is a tool written in go that pulls data from Mikrotik's accounting service, parses it, and stores it into InfluxDB2.

Note: For compatibility with InfluxDB1, please use the v1 tag; atajsic/mikrocount:v1 and see the v1 README⁠

⁠Getting Started

⁠Mikrotik router

Your Mikrotik router will need to have accounting with web access enabled.

Mikrotik Manual:IP/Accounting⁠

Example:

/ip accounting
set enabled=yes threshold=2000
/ip accounting web-access
set accessible-via-web=yes

Notes:

• threshold: maximum number of IP pairs in the accounting table (maximal value is 8192).
• The accounting feature of Mikrotik doesn't appear to work properly at all for packets that are fasttracked⁠. If you want accurate results from this tool, disable fasttrack.
