Reading the access data from PPP
It is not possible to read the PPP password via the graphical user interface.
However, it is possible via the CLI.
- You can access the CLI either via SSH or via the web interface using the menu item
- Use the command interface get to display all interface settings
- Look for the line with the type PPPoE or PPTP
- The options ppp_user and ppp_password show the DSL setup data (user and password)
Example:
[…] wan0 |PPPOE |DYNADDR| |external,firewall-external,external_v6,firewall-external_v6,vpn-ipsec,firewall-vpn-ipsec,vpn-ppp|ppp_user=my_ppp_user@isp,ppp_password=my_ppp_password,pppoe_parent=eth0,ppp_lcp=1,mtu=1492|mtu=1492 |UP […]
In this example, "my_ppp_user@isp" is the user for login and "my_ppp_password" is the associated password.
