AP user management

Wed Jan 18, 2023 4:19 am

I will be installing a multi AP system all RBwAPG-5HacD2HnD with one being the 'center' where the Internet connections is going to be. All APs connect to the center wireless and then form their own virtual AP for users to connect. Users are not 'tied' to a certain AP, but can roam. That side of things I can do, but I have a question about multiple users:
I need to have two different style user groups, with one group only having access to the wireless (or Internet) between certain hours of the day, while the other group will have full 24hour access.
Ideally this will be configured on the central AP only, so all the others will be straight bridges, but my gut feeling that that will not be possible?

What would be a way to tackle this? Note I have very limited knowledge of UserManager or Hotspot, but suspect that is where the solution is hiding? I try to avoid introducing a radius server.
Many thanks!
