So why doesn't the label do the same thing when I select "routeros" instead of "snmp"? If it was I/O bound, I should be seeing it consistently across everything which I am not.

You are likely seeing those labels because it's so slow with the I/O.

Hi guys,

I'm playing around with The Dude on an RB1000 (using dude v4beta1) and I've got 
a question on setting up labels.

I've found that when using SNMP on my mikrotik devices, when the label 
refreshes, it displays all the variables for a few seconds before displaying 
the values. For example, when it refreshes, the label says:

Rate: [Interface.Speed]
Rx: [Interface.InBitRate]
Tx: [Interface.OutBitRate]
Status: [Interface.OperStatus]

Then after a few seconds, it will display:

Rate: 100 Mbps
Rx: 50 bps
Tx: 51 bps
Status: up

Since I don't like this behavior, I decided to try switching the link type from SNMP to 
RouterOS and use the native variables. This works much better, however I can't seem to 
find an equivalent for [Interface.OperStatus]. If I try to poll the OID, I always get 
"up(1)" regardless if the link is actually connected or not.

Is there a variable that RouterOS would understand to simply tell me "up" or 
"down" for the Interface status?
