Hi, > I had some else tell me that this was the only way I could do this.
Great. So instead of taking the advice, you didn't want to believe it (or back it up with some reading) and instead bothered _more_ people with the same question. Thanks. > General question what are the typical type of models used overseas with > ADSL. What do you expect as an answer? "Overseas" has a completely different meaning depending on where your reader sits. I'm in Germany, so "overseas" is for example the US. If you ask me" what are the typical type of models used in the US with ADSL" then this question is indeed so very general that my answer can only be "lots of". I would even be so bold to say: given the size of the US, probably every single ADSL NAS product that is manufactured anywhere in the world can be found in the US. Now does that help you? No? Then please ask specific questions, preferably some that deal with FreeRADIUS, because that's what this list is about. > As a workaround, do you think I could have session time set to 1hr whereby > the customer will need to log in then during the logging in process, check > their usage which will indicate if they are usage is over and then change > some attribute which controls the speed on the NAS. Sure. If your NAS supports the "Session-Timeout" attribute, send it along with the Access-Accept and set it to 1 hour. Then, when a re-login occurs which is over quota, send the throttling attribute (however that is called in your NAS, check the documentation) with the appropriate value. But I doubt you want that. Kicking your customer out of the network every hour for no good reason is not very nice. > I don't know freeradius enough but where could I do invoke this in > Freeradius. Sending attributes with responses is a very basic thing to do. Read the documentation, and look into the "users" file for examples. > I also have these attributes specific to the vendor, could you advise me > how I can incorporate this into Freeradius. Write a dictionary file for them and add it to FreeRADIUS' dictionaries. And please send them to the list in that case as well so that they can be incorporated into the next release.
