SSTP proxy authentication

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

I suggest to add the option for simple proxy authentication in the SSTP protocol.

It’s very common to use the SSTP protocol for VPN when only an HTTP proxy is available. But in this scenario, the authentication of the proxy is also very common. So, we really need to have support for HTTP AUTH.

Please, can you consider to add this?
Thank you!

Hi,

No one needs this? :frowning:

Hi managers!

You agree to add this functionality? I really need it in my roadwarriors routers.

Thank you!

Hi,

We really need this function!
It’s hard to implement it?

I don’t think it’s hard to implement, but it’s one of those features that most people don’t need on regular basis (although it would be nice to have it “just in case”). So demand is probably low and it doesn’t seem as priority for MikroTik. And for users who randomly need it, when they see that it’s not supported, only few will bother asking MikroTik for it, because they need it now and can’t wait for who knows how long before it’s added.

If you need it often, try asking MikroTik directly (not here, this is officially only user forum) and convince them that it’s useful.

I don’t understand why! SSTP is a protocol for typical roadwarrior or sporadic use. So, using it with a proxy is the most common scenario with the SSTP protocol (if not, you should use other VPN protocols over UDP or GRE). But, in all corporate proxies the authentication is enforced. Then, the proxy support, already implemented by Mikrotik, is completly useless if you can’t authenticate with the proxy.

I’m a customer, but I don’t have direct relation with MikroTik (as I purchase to a dealer in my country). Please, can you point how to request this funtion? I feel this forum is for this… or I’m wrong?

Thank you!

Hi,

No one responds? I need this functionality!
No response from the mikrotik support e-mail… and I need put SSTP with Proxy Authentication in a lot (hundred) of hAP routers in roadwarrior.
NO SOLUTION? :frowning:
