How to send logs from Mikrotika about vpn client connection time to another syslog server?
Is the question in the logging script itself?

Answer 1

In system -> logging add an action with the remote type and specify the server address.
Then, in the rules, specify the necessary topics (l2tp, ppp, info - for example) with the previously created action.
Although it is better to log everything at once. You never know what will be needed in the future

Answer 2

use radius server for authorization. In it you will immediately see both the connection time and the disconnect time ....

Answer 3

Put on monitoring in zabix

Answer 4

In the L2TP profile, write a script for the OnUp event
: local email "[email protected]"
/tool ​​e-mail send to=$email subject="User $user connected to VPN" body="User $user connected to $[/ppp active get [/ppp active find where name=$user caller-id=$"caller-id" address=$"remote-address"] service] at $[/system clock get time].\r\nIP-address of this user - $"caller-id".\r\nUser's info - apps.db.ripe.net/search/query.html?searchtext=$ "caller-id""
On OnDown event
:local email "[email protected] com"
/tool ​​e-mail send to=$email subject="User $user disconnected from VPN" body="User $user disconnected at $[/system clock get time]."
