	[http://www.shrubbery.net/rancid/ RANCID] is a system that lets you fetch router configs into CVS. It supports many devices by default but not [http://mikrotik.com MikroTik] which is sort of a new kid on the block. [http://www.bootc.net/ Someone] was nice enough to [http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2009-April/003817.html create] a [http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/engine?do=post_attachment;postatt_id=23;list=rancid patch] for MikroTik. This patch doesn't cleanly apply so here's all you need to get it going in a non-patch method. These docs were made on a FreeBSD system, paths may be different in your case.

* Get [http://falz.net/static/rancid/mtlogin mtlogin] and [http://falz.net/static/rancid/mtrancid mtrancid] from http://falz.net/static/rancid/ and place them in '''/usr/local/libexec/rancid/'''. '''chmod 555''' them.

* Edit '''/usr/local/libexec/rancid/rancid-fe''' and add this line to the '''%vendortable''' hash:
'mikrotik' => 'mtrancid',

Then just add a device as type '''mikrotik''' to your '''router.db''' file. like so and things should work as expected:

router.foo.net:'''mikrotik''':up

== Issues ==
* Mikrotik generates a random mac-address for openvpn server when the config is displayed. To fix this bug, force its mac-address:
/interface ovpn-server server set mac-address=00:00:00:00:00:01

== Changelog ==
* 2012-08-15 - updated "mtrancid" line 226 to fix up line splitting code. - Kristian Hoffmann
* 2011-03-09 - updated '''mtrancid''' adding '''without-paging''' per [http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=253106#p253106 timoid's suggestion]
