Keith, There is a text document in the Docs directory under the source directory where you un-tarred the source code called "aaa.txt". It will answer some of your questions. As for the others:
> 1. How do I limit the traffic for a user? You dont, at least not with radius - unless there is a specific attribute your network access server understands to set the bandwidth for a user - then you could return that attribute for the user to set the bandwidth allowed... > 2. How do I shape the traffic for a user once they have gone over their limit? You don't, at least not with radius. Radius is an authorization and authentication server - not a bandwidth packet shaper - the only thing you could do would be to write scripts to control a packet shaper upstream of the NAS or AP and trigger the scripts to perform this - Don't take offense but it sounds like this would be more than you can handle at this point. No insult intended!!! It is WAY outside the scope of a radius server! > 3. How to I limit the time slots for a user? This is possible with freeradius - check out the rlm_sqlcounter file in the docs directory and also do a search in the list archive for the same thing (rlm_sqlcounter).... This will require installing an sql server to implement and your access device will need to "understand" timelimits but it is possible to do. > 4. How do I control the amount of time a user has been on? See the answer above...
