I want to control some network relay that accepts commands from PuTTY in raw mode.
Is it possible to do this with Mikrotik router? As far I know Mikrotik routers have ssh and telnet client server and client, but what if I want to send raw data?

It might have netcat or `nc` that can be used to send raw data. – Tero Kilkanen Jan 07 '22 at 07:55

@TeroKilkanen It does not have netcat and it looks like it cannot be installed (https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=43689). Linux virtual machine can be installed (and netcat "inside"), but my device probably has not enough memory (64MB and it uses about 40MB all the time). – Kamil Jan 07 '22 at 11:46

You can try cross-compiling netcat with statically linked libraries and copy the binary over to the router and use it. That takes some effort though. – Tero Kilkanen Jan 07 '22 at 12:20
