routeros-mac-telnet
MAC-Telnet protocol (MikroTik Layer-2 terminal/exec over UDP 20561) wire format, session handshake, and MD5 + MTWEI (EC-SRP) authentication. Use when: implementing or debugging a MAC-Telnet client/server, reaching a RouterOS device by MAC address without IP, parsing MAC-Telnet packets, understanding the WinBox-style L2 terminal, deciding between classic MD5 and modern MTWEI auth, or when the user mentions MAC-Telnet, mactelnet, mactelnetd, port 20561, or MTWEI/EC-SRP RouterOS login.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 76 stars are split between them (about 8 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 59/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit d14375d52878, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
