What we do with PF 5.x is have a limit (N) on the number of devices that
guest users can register...and then make sure that there are N+1 bogus
MAC addresses registered/active for that user account.  Anyone who tries
to register another device is told that they already have too many
devices registered...

Subject:  [PacketFence-users] prevent certain ldap usernames from registering 
devices

Hi,

Is there a way to 'blacklist' specific ldap usernames from registering
devices in the packetfence portal?

Running pf 7 with inline guest portal, with an AD ldap-based usersource.

I tried creating a rule under our ldap authentication source:
- condition 'username'
- role REJECT
- access duration (mandatory!) of 0h

While this makes the registration basically fail, but in a way very
unclear to the end-user. We hope pf has a better way of informing the
user that this specific account is not allowed to register devices..?

Best regards,
MJ
