How to limit BW per user using RADIUS Attributes

    We have developed a Solution w i f i Marketing and we are starting to integrate our solution with ARUBA equipment.   

    I am checking all the RADIUS attributes that the ARUBA AP support ( #show radius-attributes on C L I ) and I don´t find any of them related to the Band with Speed or with the volume.

    For integrations with similar systems such as Purple, the suggested way of proceeding is creating user Profiles in ARUBA CENTRAL and sending the Role via RADIUS, but this is not the most convenient way of proceeding for us as we don´t want to define the profiles in ARUBA CENTRAL; just in our platform, and send them to the users via RADIUS.

    The volume could also be controlled with RADIUS C o A, but would be nice if it could be passed to the user too (the accounting packet interval we use is 300 s)

    With other vendors we use parameters such as WI SP R-Bandwidth-Max-Down, WI SP R-Bandwidth-Max-UpMaximum-Data-Rate-Downstream,…. Mi k r o ti k-Rate-LimitMi k r o ti k, - Re c v-Limit, etc...  There is no equivalent parameters for ARUBA?

    Defining the user-role with the bandwidth limit is the way go here in combination with CoA to change the role and accounting to keep track of the bandwidth consumption
