Feature request: SSL/TLS support for "/tool fetch" (https)

RouterOS General
1

Hi all,

Are there any plans to support https with /tool fetch?

It turns out that /tool fetch is used to implement many of the dynamic DNS services, and because the password is revealed to the net in clear text, an attacker can take over the dynamic DNS account. I'd like a way to prevent this.

Regards,
Graham

I +1 this.

Big question is, why does the tool/fetch wiki page say HTTPS is supported, when it isn’t?

Or was this feature recently added? When? Nothing in Changelogs??

it will be in v6:

What’s new in 6.0rc12 (2013-Mar-06 12:49):

*) tool fetch - https support with optional certificate verification;

wow. If fetch is done, than enable https in proxy also, i think its more important :slight_smile:
