I was thinking about a script that looks at your dummynet data and apply the business rule (e.g. cut off the service after 5GB). This will then change the RADIUS profile.
Byte counters are easy to do in the radio (it may be already there). The
tricky part is what business rules to design into the unit. As different
people would have different requirements.
That's one nitpick I have with the current firmware. It only provides packet counters on the wireless interface. There are byte counters on the ethernet interface, but they count all the traffic on the ethernet side and not only the traffic being forwarded (say, if the customer has 3 computers connected with a hub to the CPE, the ethernet byte/ packet counters will increase both for traffic going through the CPE and traffic going between the 3 computers).
Not a big problem, since traffic counters can be fetched from the PPPoE server or from MAC/IP traffic counters at the router.
