Hi Scott,

So the bandwidth fields on the freeradius screenshot within the features section of the website don't actualy work on the captive portal then ?

What I'm actualy after is the capability to have a user log in via the captive portal and have there bandwidth set to a specific level, could you please tell me if pfsense supports this ?

The other thing I'm looking for is the ability to add, amend or delete a user without logging into pfsense manualy, by perhaps creating a script that runs on an external PC and connects to pfsense to run shell commands that would perform this task, I have to be honest I don't know how to do it but if I can get confirmation that it's possible to add, amend and delete users via ssh then I'll learn how to do it and implement it myself - I just don't want to waste my time if it's not going to be possible afterall.

Thanks for all your help.

Cheers, James...

Thanks for the quick reply Scott,

In the features section of the pfsense website it says that a freeradius
is available within pfsense and when looking at the screenshot of this
there are fields for entering a users upload and download bandwidth
limits and so would I be correct in assuming that if I used pfsense's
built in freeradius server the captive portal would be able to
authenticate registered users and limit there bandwidth individualy ?

No.

If this is the case then I would not need a seperate radius server :-)

The only issue then would be how to setup a process whereby I could
create a script on another system that would connect to the pfsense
machine, via ssh perhaps, and automaticaly add, amend, or delete users
from the pfsense radius server as needed so that I would not need to
manualy log into pfsense.

It would be possible for someone to create a ipfw package that does
this but there is no support for this currently.

Scott
