Hello,
I rewritten the Mikrotik router script so it relies less on interactions with RouterOS and processes mainly lists in memory. So the speed significantly increased, an update check without changes on my RB110AHx2 taking 4 seconds. A full table and tunnel setup takes less than 1 min. On a single core ARM, an update check takes less than 10 seconds.
The introduced delay will increase the runtime. Still on the RB1100 it takes only 12 seconds for a check, and some 30 sec on the ARM, while the processor load is quite small (15-20% on the RB1100).
Download links (rsc script): http://www.yo2loj.ro/hamprojects/ampr-gw-2.0.rsc http://yo2tm.ampr.org/hamprojects/ampr-gw-2.0.rsc
Only main script as text file: http://www.yo2loj.ro/hamprojects/ampr-gw-2.0.txt http://yo2tm.ampr.org/hamprojects/ampr-gw-2.0.txt
Have fun, Marius, YO2LOJ
Dear Marius May you be kind enough to write some explain for "stupids" like me what exactly needed to do in order to operate this script on routers like i have (small home router) where to put the scripts what command to run ? and if you can add some words about it in the wiki in the paragraph of the Mikrotik routers gateway setup it would be great Thanks Forward Ronen - 4Z4ZQ http://www.ronen.org

Log in to your router. Paste this:
/tool fetch url=http://www.yo2loj.ro/hamprojects/ampr-gw-2.0.rsc /import ampr-gw-2.0.rsc
I would advise you to read every line of that script and understand it before running it on your router. This copy/paste game will not teach you much.

I put some instructions on how to get RIP reception and general setup into this text file:

Hello Marius,
the version 2.0 is a HUGE step, you should have named it v10.0 H-I-H-I. It takes 37 seconds on my RB2011UAS (mipsbe) with a delay of 20ms.
There is really now advantage any more to run a script on a separate linux machine. The PYTHON script I used before, used almost the same amount of time. Although it used the encap file downloaded via the Portal API so it was up2date to the minute. AFAIK the RIP announcements still have upto 1 hour of delay (if you're unlucky).
Could you move the "Setup parameters" into a separate script (like a config script) which is loaded by ampr_gw script? That way we don't have to edit the script manually everytime you release a new version. :-)

Yes, that would be the next step.

About access to the portal data...
It would be nice if the portal data could be available for download as a rsc file in the portal. This would allow to replace the RIP loading with a ':fetch <url>' and an import.
Just a thought.

More generally, it would be good if it were available in multiple formats to simplify reloading via common platforms. But the big issue with that is you still need to filter out your own gateway routes.

I would say that it could be done without problems. e.g if the provided routes would be using a high distance metric, local ones would take precedence...

On a second thought, a simple plain text file that could be fetched via API holding e.g. <subnet>:<gw>;[<subnet>:<gw>;]... would do the trick.
