Lewis,
 Yea, I know especially the issue with support on the platform now but I am talking to a 3rd party support element that is eager to help us with it. We are using freeside for this project. I mainly want to hit the high tier power users with a package for overage and slow down. This seems to be the problem area with some that just watch tv all day in UHD and kids come home and drag the rest of the pipe down. I dont use ppoe and never have. We are using DHCP-static and vlans for access.
I would imagine that it wouldnt take much to implement.
Thanks
dave

Well....I pity you on your billing platform but I understand it. I would look into using RADIUS. At least when I was doing it, it was well supported. I can't imagine Cambium would remove the functionality when it already worked. You have to make a number of entries into the config to allow the routers and AP's to forward those packets to the RADIUS server without being rejected but that is a one time config. We used FreeRADIUS when we did it. Don't know what you are using but the feature is part of the RADIUS standard so I would think they would all be capable.

    Hmm, ok..
     We are moving everything towards radius soon anyways for a
    complete zero touch setup down to techs using tablets for final
    signature and payment on site.
     I did not think of radius pulling that data but absolutely.
    We still use freeside for our billing CRM.

    Thanks
    Dave

    Well, Are you taking about what to use for billing? There are a
    few that require edge boxes to monitor traffic. You could use
    RADIUS. We used to use that. Takes a bit to get it correct but MT
    supports sending periodic updates with byte counters to track
    usage. Your billing platform would have to support the logic to
    pull it from the DB and do some if over x type logic I would guess.

        Anyone using usage based billing on their networks? If so
        what are you using?
        What is good for an all mikrotik routed network?
