/ip firewall address-list add address=$remote-address list="ppp-active" timeout=1d comment=$user
Here’s a practical piece covering MikroTik PPP profile scripting, including common use cases, script examples, and explanation. MikroTik RouterOS allows you to attach scripts to PPP profiles (for PPTP, L2TP, PPPoE, SSTP, etc.). These scripts run when a PPP session starts ( on-up ) or terminates ( on-down ), enabling dynamic control over user sessions, bandwidth management, routing, and logging. 1.
