As requested Following is a quick and dirty way to export Mikrotik Local PPP (pppoe) users to USER MANAGER with same profile assigned as LOCAL profile section . I used the word dirty because there is no officially supported method that we can use by single CLI command or one window GUI.
Consider the following scenario:
Mikrotik is configured with PPPoE Server , and have two profiles with the name of 512k and 1mb and 6 users in ppp section …
As showed in the image below …
Our task is to migrate all local ppp users to USERMAN with minimum overhead management of manual workout.
First Open User Manager, and configure /add the NAS , so that Mikrotik can communicate with the UserMAN and wise-verse.
Now add same profiles in User Manager as present in the local Mikrotik PPP Section.
[This task can be done via CLI too, example is in the end]
As showed in the image below …
.
Now as far as my dumb mind goes, I couldn’t found a way to assign profile to user using /tool userman menu, so to overcome this issue, I first created two users with same profile name and id.
Example if profile name is 512k, then create a user with name”512k” , it will be used as a master copy for cloning
As showed in the image below …
.
Userman section is done , moving to Mikrotik Section…
Goto System > Scripts and add new script, use the following code…
# PPP Export to USERMAN SCRIPT START :log error "Make sure you have usermanager configured properly and created same profile names with same user name (master users for cloning) in USERMAN / Jz" # Applying Loop for ppp secret section to fetch all user details /ppp secret :foreach i in=[find] do={ :local username [get $i username] :local pass [get $i password] :local profile [get $i profile] :local comment [get $i comment] #Printing User names and other details for record purpose ... :log warning "Fetching USER details from /ppp secret section , Found $name $pass $profile $comment for EXPORT" #Creating Users in User Manager with ID / Password / Profile and Comments ... /tool user-manager user add name=$name password=$pass customer=admin copy-from=$profile comment=$comment } :log error "DONE. Script END. Now logout from USERMAN and RE login and check users section" # Script End.
the result would be something like …

Now log-out from the User-manager, and re login , and check USERS Section again
the result would be something like …

This is just an example, you can do much more by adding various functions or variables/constrains to the script
Example for CLI base profile addition.
/tool user-manager profile add name=512k name-for-users="512k Package" override-shared-users=off owner=admin \ price=500 starts-at=logon validity=4w2d add name=1mb name-for-users=1mb override-shared-users=off owner=admin price=500 \ starts-at=logon validity=4w2d /tool user-manager profile limitation add address-list="" download-limit=0B group-name="" ip-pool="" name=512k \ rate-limit-min-rx=524288B rate-limit-min-tx=524288B rate-limit-rx=524288B \ rate-limit-tx=524288B transfer-limit=0B upload-limit=0B uptime-limit=0s add address-list="" download-limit=0B group-name="" ip-pool="" name=1mb \ rate-limit-min-rx=1048576B rate-limit-min-tx=1048576B rate-limit-rx=1048576B \ rate-limit-tx=1048576B transfer-limit=0B upload-limit=0B uptime-limit=0s /tool user-manager profile profile-limitation add from-time=0s limitation=512k profile=512k till-time=23h59m59s weekdays=\ sunday,monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturday add from-time=0s limitation=1mb profile=1mb till-time=23h59m59s weekdays=\ sunday,monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturday
