Command prompt in webgui

[GreenMatter]

If I'm not mistaken in pfSense there's command prompt available in webgui. I can't find any plugin for it; is it available in OPNsense?

[bartjsmit]

There isn't - you'll need to use SSH or the console.

If you're wondering where an OPNsense command is, type it in the search box in the top right of the browser page.

Console emulation in web GUI is considered a security incident waiting to happen for lack of validation and PHP still claiming root rights to run.

Use SSH and you'll be fine.

Got it. I asked because it would be handy to use it when doing speedtest with speedtest-cli...

[jahyde]

Actually - this is the only reason (speedtest) I ever use that feature.... would it be possible to integrate some plugin to run /usr/local/bin/speedtest
