Skip user authentication for PPPoE Server with noauth option
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST
Actions

Description

Disabling authentication is useful in emergency situations (e.g. RADIUS server is down) or testing purposes.
Clients can connect with any login and username.

Something like set service pppoe-server authentication mode noauth

Adding this to /run/accel-pppd/pppoe.conf is enough:

[auth]
any-login=1
