When you run ./mndp.py, you'll get to see records like the following:

{'hw': u'RB750Gr2',
 'id': u'MikroTik',
 'iface': u'ether2',
 'ip': u'172.18.15.11',
 'mac': 'e4:8d:8c:ad:12:8a',
 'platform': u'MikroTik',
 'softid': u'IJ47-CMK9',
 'up': u'12999',
 'version': u'6.33.5 (stable)'}

Each of the names hw, id, iface, ip, mac, platform, softid, up and version can be used to filter the output. When present, a filter string for such a name will be compared to the corresponding value in the record. The filter string will be interpreted as a regular expression, see https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html for more information.

Filter names that are not specified always match the corresponding string value. So in the example above, specifying only the filter string RB.* (so any string starting with the letters 'RB') for the name hw will match the record.

Important remarks:

1. Care must be taken when using an asterisk * on the command line, since this may be expanded to a filename by the shell in use (e.g. 'bash') before the actual parameter is passed to the program. When in doubt, surround the string on the command line with single or double quotes.

2. The matching algorithm only looks at the string as present in the record above, and for the MAC address only lowercase letters will be used in such a record. This means that when specifying a filter for a MAC address, lowercase letters need to be used. In the example, specifying e4.* for the mac property will match, but E4.* won't. This also applies to full MAC addresses: specifying E4:8D:8C:AD:12:8A will not match!

Set environment variable PYMT_VERBOSE for more debugging output. This can be done for all following commands using

export PYMT_VERBOSE=1

It can also be set just for the command to be executed by specifying it on the same line, for example

PYMT_VERBOSE=1 ./batch_resetanduploadconfig.py -single conf.txt
