Is it possible to get the MT OS to: Have a user start a external

Ok...here's a quickie..only barely tested. You should probably use
more variables where I have constants. You need to create a
firewall rule in the input chain on a port that is NOT used for
anything else:
/ip firewall filter add chain=input protocol=tcp dst-port=8473 \
action=passthrough comment="PINGWOL"
Be sure the above rule is not going to be dropped (put it at or near
the top of the chain).
Then use a script similar to the following(some lines wrapped in my
email program):
:local packet [/ip firewall filter get [find comment="PINGWOL"]
packets]
:if ( $"packet" > 0) do={
/ip firewall filter reset-counters [/ip firewall filter find
comment="PINGWOL"]
/ping 10.10.10.10 count=5
:log error "Pinging the WOL device"
} else={
:log error "No packets, yet"
}
