Re: Consuming card code

[Juraj Bilic]

Ive found the answer to my dilemma. With radiusmanager3 i set available online 
time to 1h 
and with acct packet subtract seconds from available online time. The main 
solution lies 
in two attributes: Acct-Status-Type = Interim-Update and Acct-Session-Time = 
.

thanks for all the support by repliers ;)

Subject: Consuming card code



Im 
using 
freeradius-1.1.7 
on 
my 
remote 
unix 
machine 
and 
developing 
on 
my 
client 
.net 
application.
By 
now 
i 
succesfully 
made 
authorization 
and 
start/stop 
accounting 
request/responses 
(packet 
send/recieve 
logic).
With 
radiusManager3 
i 
generated 
card 
series, 
services 
.. 

Can 
i 
implement 
user 
login, 
consuming 
of 
card 
codes, 
etc. 
with 
only 
packets 
(acct) 
or 
im 
missing 
some 
crucial 
points? 

I 
hope 
that 
i 
(user, 
client) 
can 
make 
an 
behaviour 
of 
communicating 
with 
freeradius 
every 
10sec
and 
consuming 
10sec 
of 
currently 
selected 
card 
code.

thank 
you 
for 
your 
time,

Use freeradius total (sql)counter instead.

Hey Juraj,

I think that you are over-complicating things.
This is rather easy to implement, you simply need to create a pincode-auth
scenario and for limiting the time you can use Max-All-Session attribute.

Be sure to check daloRADIUS as a management platform for RADIUS and Hotspots
deployments (if you're working with SQL databases, MySQL specifically though
other
are supported too).

daloRADIUS -
http://sourceforge.net/projects/daloradius/

I'll be glad to be of help if you need assistance in implementing this kind
of
solution in your network.

What 
"card 
codes" 
are 
you 
talking 
about?

The problem: 
There is a host that controls internet access for 25 different machines.
For having internet access machine user must type prepaid code.
  (there are 1000 generated prepaid valid codes)
With one prepaid code user can use the internet for 1h.
If user used only 20min of his current prepaid code he can use it again. 
 on another machine (this code now gives 40min of internet access)

My naive solution:
Use freeradius on host and special .net app on every user machine
to control everything.

  No idea.  What "card codes" are you talking about?

  You don't want to send accounting packets to the server every 10s.
It's a very bad idea.

  If you need 10s granularity on accounting, use a local database.
