# Mikrotik Terminal Command Line and Keyboard Command - Mikrotik Script RouterOS

    Command line or Terminal in ROS Mikrotik will actually be easier to understand if we are Linux users, because basically Mikrotik is Linux Base which is compiled for special purpose Router networks.

    In monitoring the network, usually reliable administrators use the terminal more than the Winbox GUI or Webfig , perhaps in terms of security and speed.

    LOGIN PARAMETERS FOR TELNET and SSH
    login_name :: = user_name ['+' parameters]
    parameters :: = parameter [parameters]
    parameter :: = [number] 'a' .. 'z' number :: = '0' .. ' 9 '[number]

    "w" = Set terminal width
    "h" = Set terminal height
    "c" = disable/enable console colours
    "t" = Do auto detection of terminal capabilities
    "e" = Enables "dumb" terminal mode
    Example login:
    admin + c80w

    This means logged in with user "admin", "text is colorless" and 80w is the width of the window in the terminal.
