Implement Rate limiting from Radius per User

Open RHDHV-simon-sutcliffe opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently the packetfence solution has the ability to be able to limit the amount of bandwidth via accounting. However we would like to implement speedlimts where possible without the current need for the inline method but relying on the radius setting sent to the NAS.

Describe the solution you'd like Per user Type \ group be able to apply a speed limit

This could be done using the various attributes that can be sent to the NAS equipment for example

  • Cisco * Cisco-Avpair rate-limit
  • Mikrotik * Mikrotik-Rate-Limit
  • Ubiquiti * WISPr-Bandwidth-Max-Down

You can use RADIUS filters to return any set of attributes you want based on simple or complex conditions.

Since its currently possible to do it, I'll mark this as low since it would be improving the experience around this in a built-in way instead of using the RADIUS filters

Thanks we will look at that feature to get us going.
