[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
Description
-----------
This script has been replace. Please migrate to
[Forward log messages via notification](log-forward.md).
RouterOS supports sending log messages via e-mail or to a syslog server.
However this does not work early after boot if network connectivity is not
yet established. For example log messages about reboot without proper
shutdown may be missed:
> router rebooted without proper shutdown, probably power outage
The script collects log messages with severity `error` and sends a
notification.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install this script and [global-wait](global-wait.md):
$ScriptInstallUpdate early-errors,global-wait;
... and add a scheduler:
/ system scheduler add name=early-erros on-event="/ system script { run global-wait; run early-errors; }" start-time=startup;
Configuration
-------------
The notifications just require notification settings for e-mail and telegram.

Forward log messages via notification
=====================================
[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
Description
-----------
RouterOS supports sending log messages via e-mail or to a syslog server.
This has some limitation, however:
* does not work early after boot if network connectivity is not
yet established
* lots of messages generate a flood of mails
* Telegram is not supported
The script is intended to be run periodically. It collects log messages
and forwards them via notification.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the script:
$ScriptInstallUpdate log-forward;
... and add a scheduler:
/ system scheduler add interval=1m name=log-forward on-event="/ system script run log-forward;" start-time=startup;
Configuration
-------------
The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, there is just one parameters:
* `LogForwardFilter`: define topics *not* to be forwarded
Also notification settings are required for e-mail and telegram.
