Bandwidth Test - Other Users

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I’ve looked, but I’m don’t seem to be searching correctly. I would like to give my customer access to the Bandwidth Test Server on the RouterBoard 1100, but I do not want to give my customer the username and password to access the router itself (only to allow them to conduct a bandwidth test with btest.exe). I have looked under System->Users, however I am not clear on how to create an account that permits them only to execute a bandwidth test using their Windows notebook with the btest.exe application.

Suggestions anyone? Much appreciated!

Looks like you can just add them to the ‘test’ group.

/user add name=customer1 group=test password=changeme

Since you’re not permitting local, telnet, or SSH logins it should just limit them to performing bandwidth test none of the other tools listed under the ‘test’ group.

You’re right - seems I need to select ‘test’ and ‘winbox’ to allow the app to work (btest.exe) - thanks again
