(RADIATOR) Re: DefaultLeasePeriod

[Ayotunde Itayemi]

Hi Hugh,

Okay you are right. But what if I would like to ensure that the max time a client can stay
on is a day? That is, even the "always-on" clients get disconnected at least once everyday?
In such a case, what would my checkattributes and replyattributes be?

Regards,
Tunde I.

  Hello Tunde -

  By definition a customer with a permanent connection would not use a dynamic address.

  You should allocate such users static addresses instead.

    Hi Hugh,
     
    One, I assume the checkattribute ( Service-Type = Framed-User,Time ="Al0000-2400",Simultaneous-Use = 1)
    implies "always-on 24-7-365" access for the user?
     
    My aim is to allow clients with DSL access (alwayson-24-7-365) to remain on without radiatior reclaiming the
    IP address allocated to them while they are still connected.
     
    What combination of attributes do you think can handle clients with DSL access (alwayson-24-7-365) and dial-up
    access so that the IP address is not reclaimed for the DSL clients while they are still connected - and still reclaim
    the IP addresses allocated to the dial-up/DSL clients when they disconnect by themselves from the NASes?
     
    Would setting the Defaultleaseperiod to "infinity" ( :-) or say a year, and leaving the LeaseReclaimInterval set to
    (say) a day handle the kind of configuration I mentioned above? That is, correctly reclaim the IPaddresses for clients
    when they are disconnected (by NAS, attributes, etc) and also not reclaim the IP addresses allocated to clients
    that are still online.
     
    Regards,
    Tunde Itayemi.

    Hello Tunde -

    The IP address in the address pool is marked as available when the DefaultLeasePeriod expires.

    There is no relationship between the Session-Timeout on the NAS and the DefaultLeasePeriod for the IP address allocation. You will have to manage any relationship that you wish to have with your configuration.

    regards

    Hugh

    Hi Hugh, Hi All,
     
    What happens when the DefaultLeasePeriod  (say 86400 = 1 day) expires?
    Does the user get disconnected and the IP allocated to him/her reclaimed?
    Or is the user (correctly) allowed to stay connected?
     
    Let's assume that the checkattribute of the clients specifies that he/she
    can stay on for the whole day (Service-Type = Framed-User,Time ="Al0000-2400",Simultaneous-Use = 1)
