Backups, alerts & API

RouterOS Backups, Alerts & the Self-Hosted API

The operational backbone under everything else: configs that are actually backed up, alerts that don't disappear, and a backend you own outright.

RouterOS backups

Scheduled backups run across every sector AP and router, with per-device status and size, plaintext .rsc inspection, and an automatic critical alert if a backup fails. Run a fleet backup on demand, or open the full table for detail on any single device.

Alerts that don't get lost

A live alert feed with acknowledge and ping-device actions inline, severity filters, an audible alarm toggle, and ack-all for after a maintenance window — built so a real outage doesn't get buried in flapping noise.

Self-hosted Python API

A downloadable FastAPI + asyncio backend — schema, poller, API and backup scripts — that runs on your own VM. Your network data never touches a third-party cloud; the frontend you're looking at talks to infrastructure you control end-to-end.
