List of menus with sensitive parameters
Sensitive parameters — passwords, keys and secrets — are left out of export and print output unless you use the show-sensitive flag. WinBox hides them when the "Hide password" option is enabled. The one exception is user passwords: they are stored hashed and are never exported, not even with show-sensitive.
The table lists the menus where sensitive parameters can be configured, the parameter names, and links to the menu documentation.
