These are the services very important to understand because it's very important to enable and disable the services based on your requirement .
Application Programmable Interface (API) allows users to create custom software solutions to communicate with RouterOS to gather information, adjust configuration and manage router. API closely follows syntax from command line interface (CLI). It can be used to create translated or custom configuration tools to aid ease of use running and managing routers with RouterOS.
To use API RouterOS version 3.x or newer is required.
By default API uses port #8728 and service is disabled. More on service management see in corresponding manual section. Corresponding service name is api.
Lets you are using the Mikrotik NAS with any others vendor RADIUS, in that case it very important to enable the API services .because there is very important to have a communication between NAS and Radsius .
Note:Make sure that "Don't disable the winbox services ,if you will disable it then you will not able to access the router through the interface "And also you can disable the WWW for preventing the web access of Mikrotik .
