Perform Data-Capping per-user on a Wireless SSID

Lovleen Arora · ‎02-10-2016

Hi,

We have a Guest user SSID built-in similar to other SSIDs in the network. We use ISE for authentication and authorization of guest users via the portal.

We have a requirement that we want to cap the guest user data to 2 GB per day per user per client device. Can we achieve this using cisco infrastructure?

WLC USED: Cisco 5760 ver 3.7.x. ISE version 2.x.

this looks like cisco has provided BYOD solution but could not find any answer to the Guest data capping which is a very usual setup for wireless environments. I would be surprised to know if cisco doesn't have anything to fix this requirement.

Many thanks

Lovleen

Hello,

You can rate limit but you can not cap daily usage. This link talks about limit. If the controller has the function to do something, like limit an SSID, you can almost always use that in ISE. There is no feature for capping.

What you can do is open a TAC case and ask for a future request.
