      Hi,

      I am looking for a solution that covers the following:

      • Internal user accounts (managed by pfsense or an addon)
      • Time based rules to limit periods of times on a user/group basis
      • URL filtering
      • [optional] Protocol / Port filtering
      • [optional] Assigning policies to groups of users

      Basically I have various users that are to have various times they can/can't access the internet. I would like to filter specific protocols or ports but it is not vital. URL filtering is a must. The core issue though is creating user accounts that have time based access limits.

      Cheers,
      Michael.

        1: yes (FreeRADIUS)
        2: yes (Captive Portal against the FreeRADIUS)
        3: yes (Squid)
        4: yes
        5: what do you mean with that?

        However as far as i know you cannot have Squid and the Captive Portal running at the same time.
        Not sure about that though. You will have to read in the packages subforum.

        We do what we must, because we can.

          By 5. I mean being able to assign URL/Port/Protocol policies to groups of users based on, as your suggestion was, RADIUS user groups.

          I'll look into the package combo and do some more reading. Thanks.
