Detect Internet is a tool that categorizes monitored interfaces into the following states - Internet, WAN, LAN, unknown, and no-link.
This submenu displays status of all monitored interfaces defined by the detect-interface-list parameter:
interface/detect-internet/state/print |
All layer 2 interfaces initially have this state.
Any L3 tunnel and LTE interfaces will initially have this state. Layer 2 interfaces can obtain this state if:
WAN interface can fall back to LAN state only when link status changes. LAN interfaces get locked to LAN after 1h and then change only when link status changes. |
Note that Detect Internet can install DHCP clients, default routes, DNS servers and affect other facilities. |
WAN interfaces that can reach cloud.mikrotik.com using UDP protocol port 30000 can obtain this state. Reachability is checked every minute. If a cloud is not reached for 3 minutes, the state falls back to WAN.
