User manager 4B3, using Profiles

Hello

I`m trying to set up a small WISP system based on PPPoE/Usermanger on a RB1000.

For clients I will use different rate limits.
1Mbps down, 300Kbps up
3Mbps down, 700Kbps up
6Mbps down, 1Mbps up

When adding new users it would be nice to be able to link customer to a profile that has these rate limits, so that I will not have to specify each time.
Also say if I change the 1Mbps down, 300Kbps up to 1,5Mbps down, 400Kbps up in the future I only have to edit profile, not all users.

Under Profiles in the Usermanger web interface it seems like this is a possibility, but I can`t figure out how to assign a profile to a user…

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Yes, profiles are designed for the same behavior, but currently User Manager profiles are available at the v4.0beta, and profiles do not work correctly now. We are working on it.

Thank you sergejs.
This feature sounds great.

Will there be a select list when adding user for assigning profile?
When do you think this feature will be ready?

Yes, there will be option to select profile, when adding one user as well as adding batch of users.

The user limitations will be updated real-time, when changing profile details.

Right now we are working on migrating old credits to new profiles.

Sorry, do not mean to nag about this.

When do you think the usermanager with profiles support will be released?

yea please make a drop down option for profiles in user details main.

i was going to move all my users from 24online billing to user manager but i will have to wait for this update!

Thanks

Any news on when new beta with Profiles enabled will be available?

He he, I relay need this :laughing:

As per my experience! Mt team don’t like to work in pressure so they will never give any estimate time limit & whenever they will be in mood they will release it. :laughing:

Yes, and that is ok.

I just seem to remember that girts sayed that it would be released last month.
So I have been checking the download link several times per day after that. :laughing:

Adding profile support means the following:

  1. Adding data base support for profiles;
  2. Old credit migration to new profiles
  3. Web interface for limitation and profile management
  4. Using profiles for radius requests: both authorization and accounting
  5. Extensive testing of many possible situations for authorization and accounting
  6. Radius CoA and Disconnect request support
  7. Backoff-limit support (for example, 2MBit speed limitation which is replaced by 32Kbps, when 4GB download limit reached)
    8 ) Support for dynamic profile and limitation changes in time (one limit 08:00-17:00, different limits other time)
  8. Actual user profile data (start/end time, left time, actual download/upload/rate limits) displaying in user table
  9. Profile assignment/management for users
  10. Web interface for Backoff-limitation management

As you can see, adding profiles involves lot of work. That is the reason, why new version has not been released for a relatively long period of time. You would be more unsatisfied when a version containing only several of these features would be released.

First 9 steps are complete, two still left. New version will be released, when step 10 is complete (backoff-limitation interface is not so crucial, new version can be released without it).

Yes, the release was planned at the start of July, but it will be released several weeks later - hopefully this week.

week finished won’t trust you anymore :frowning:

In a broad strokes definition, fraud is a deliberate misrepresentation which causes another person to suffer damages, usually monetary losses. Most people consider the act of lying to be fraudulent, but in a legal sense lying is only one small element of actual fraud.

Please can anybody tell me when this new version will be released?

If its not ready then at least fix the current bugs & release it without profiles.
don’t know what u get making fool of your customers, after waiting so long my interest on MT almost finished. I have set MT download page as my homepage & opens it hundreds of times per day like an idiot “Hoping someday this dead body will speak”. You can fool me but i cannot fool my seniors & my boss. they trusted me & my fault was i trusted MT. The day when new UM was released i asked them buy license that time i was not knowing that i will have to suffer so much trouble & my seniors found other pppoe servers with UM management & now my boss think that i have wasted his money on MT server because it is useless from 2 months. You don’t know how badly i need it else i will lose my job.
you should hire more programmers or work overtime & off days to complete it. you people are not serious about it & never worked as a challenge.

I know i don’t have any rights to say all this things & sorry if i said something wrong.
I was just sharing my experience with MT.

sorry for my bad english :frowning:

I cannot find any of this features in my 4beta4 UM, should I to reinstall whole OS?

Any update??
