Re: Enforcing Bandwidth caps (quotas)
Wired/Wireless, I guess ultimately it ends up at a concentrator. After scanning the web, it appears its only possible using "special" implementations or specialist software. For example, BT's broadband in the UK limits you to 10gb @ 512kb, then once you're quota is exceeded your speed is throttled to 64k. I'm guessing this is using some specialist kit as opposed to a simple concentrator/RADIUS pairing. Google seems to throw up companies like Allot and Packeteer - they have fancy things like policy managers etc - but all look very expensive! |
