Could you get PF to put the registered gaming devices into their own vlan, 
which goes directly to the internet rather than through the NetEnforcer? I’m 
fairly sure that would be pretty easy to configure using the Roles within 
Packetfence, as long as the wireless controller had an interface within the 
gaming subnet, and you have AAA override selected for the main SSID (Cisco 
based speak, I’m not sure what the equivalent would be for other vendors).

Cheers,

Subject: [PacketFence-users] gaming device situation

Ok, So this is what I currently do:
Student gets a game that is constantly flagged by our Allot NetEnforcer as 
filesharing.  So, I put the consoles into their own subnet, I then set that 
subnet as bypass - apply no rules in the Netenforcer for that subnet so I dont 
have to keep dealing with it.  Actually, I like the solution just fine, but it 
requires the user to call and manual configuration on my part.
I am wondering, is there anyway on packetfence for the user to be able to 
register their console in packetfence via the gaming-device registration 
portal, Then, once registered only those gaming consoles can join an SSID like 
'Campus-Gaming' which uses my gaming bypass subnet?
so, i want the users to be able to self register their consoles, and then be 
able to join the open Campus-Gaming SSID, all the while keeping all other 
devices off that SSID - just registered game consoles.
I hope that makes sense. Any ideas?
