Concurrent user logins Issue
-
Hey guys,
I am having a trouble setting up Concurrent user logins for the captive portal since I have upgraded to 2.5.x
I had an option to set multiple option to set concurrent logins for our students in 2.4.x where I allowed students to login and use 2 devices simultaneously with their login details. It was working perfectly until I upgraded to 2.5.2 and noticed multiple options have been changed in the captive portal.
Could anyone please help me out how to set the same settings? currently, I have allowed them Multiple but the problem is they can login more than 2 devices now.

Using the same login credentials I presume.
That's not possible.The most logic "last login" means : upon login, if the same login credentials were already used with a device (MAC + IP pair), then existing connection is removed.
"First login" : Ones login credentials are use, and the connection is withing the soft and hardware time out, no other connections with identical login credentials are accepted.
Multiple : identical login credentials are accepted, with multiple devices.Disabled : I don't know. This would be "Last login" or "First login".
Someting as "x users per login" is not an option, if you use the captive portal with the build in User manager.
Things change when you use the Freeradius pfSense package, where a "x concurrent logins" is possible.
The good news : it's Free.
The bad news : you have to set up a Radius server ;)
