My Devices and Logs

This page covers the two status screens: My Devices, where several devices appear in one list, and Logs, the first place to look when investigating a problem.

1. My Devices

How do I open it? MikroTik Management → STATUS → My Devices.

MikroTik Management – My Devices

A summary of every MikroTik registered to you. The columns:

Device: The device number. The one you are working on is marked "you are on this device".
Address: The device's IP address.
Status: Three values — online (connected and running), unreachable (connection details exist but the device cannot be reached), not connected (no connection details entered yet).
RouterOS: The software version on the device (e.g. 7.23.3 (stable)).
Uptime: How long the device has been running.
CPU: Current processor usage.

What does "not connected" mean? No connection details have been entered for that device yet. You can set the connection up from the device's own page.

2. Logs

How do I open it? MikroTik Management → STATUS → Logs.

Shows the device's own event records. This is the first place to look when investigating a problem: the Recent events list gives what the device did, in time order.

If the device cannot be reached, the "Cannot reach the device" warning appears instead of the list.
