							|  |  |  | Description | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | ----------- | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The primary use of this script is to notify about RouterOS updates. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Run from a terminal you can start the update process or schedule it. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Centrally managing update process of several devices is possibly by | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | specifying versions safe to be updated on a web server. |

							|  |  |  | automatically is supported. |

							|  |  |  |     $ScriptInstallUpdate check-routeros-update; | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | And add a scheduler for automatic update notification: | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |     / system scheduler add interval=1d name=check-routeros-update on-event="/ system script run check-routeros-update;" start-time=startup; | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |

							|  |  |  | Configuration | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | ------------- | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Configuration is required only if you want to control update process with | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | safe versions from a web server. The configuration goes to | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | `global-config-overlay`, this is the parameter: |
