Description
Wireless internet service provider software is one of the most expensive software that is also in high demand. However, most network engineers are not software developers and they shy away from programming. In the current world, there is always a need to automate things. In this course, you will learn how to build the application to automatically manage your hotspot users so that they have to register and a username and password will automatically be generated for them to be able to login into the hotspot. This course will give a glimpse of how the wireless internet service provider works and this can enable you to develop your own software if you would like to automatically manage your hotspot users using the Mikrotik API. Mikrotik API made it simple for developers to be able to work with the router os for automation.
The information about Mikrotik OS and API is very scarce on the internet and this makes it hard for the beginners working with or who would like to work with MikroTik API.
What we will cover in this course
The physical configuration of the Mikrotik router
Installation of Winbox software from Mikrotik to be able to configure our router
The basic configuration of our router to access the internet
Installation of a new Laravel application
Installation of packages required for interacting with router OS API interface and then we will go-ahead to build our application
Who this course is for:
Laravel/PHP Developers who would like to know how to interact with Mikrotik OS API
Laravel/PHP developers who would like to know how to develop a Wireless Internet Service Provider software to automatically manage users
