Limiting users Data

RouterOS General
1

Hi Guys,

We are looking at how we can inforce ‘data-caps’. Currently we use PPP with Free-Radius for authentication and accounting. We use MT PPPoE Server on various routers to authorise clients via our radius database. We use queues on our edge router to determine / prioritize / limit customers traffic / data rates.

What we want to do is be able to automatically enforce data caps and reduce customers to a slower speed once they have reached their ‘cap’, as our service is offered with various limits. How can we do this? i dont think user-manager is right for our needs. How do others here do it? It has since become impractical for us to do it manually.

Thanks in advance!

Just to give you some direction, this would have to be done in the scripting.

You would have to look at each queue, look for the slower speed, and reset to normal speed
then look at each queue, see the total moved, if > xxx then set to lower speed
then reset the counter of each queue.

Sounds simple, programming it may not be.
