Hi Nick, Thank for replying. Correct me if I'm wrong. From your answer, assuming I want 11GB of data, I need to set Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit to 3GB and Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords to 2 (that is 8GB). That is speaking in simpler terms (with no 0C0000x@#$%^%) :) If that is so, it mean Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit will be a "check" attribute whiles Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords will be a "reply" attribute". How right or wrong am I so far? On Thursday, January 23, 2014 7:23 AM, Nick Lowe <nick.lowe@gmail.com> wrote: Typo, Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit and Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords.

You need to use both Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords and Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords...
Taking 11 GiB as an example:
For Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit:
(11 * 0x40000000) & 0xFFFFFFFF) = 0xC0000000 -or- (11 * 1073741824) & 4294967295) = 3221225472
For Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords:
(11 * 0x40000000) >> 32 = 0x2 -or- (11 * 1073741824) >> 32 = 2

Hi, I've been following the postings in this mailing list for a while (mostly on FR 3.x) so please forgive me for asking this "basic" stuff. I want to use FreeRADIUS to limit user data above 4GB, of course the right attribute is Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords. The documentation explains it as 4G (2^32). I get that.
My question is (and forgive me if it sounds silly to some of you), assuming I want to limit data such as 10GB, 11GB and such figures, how am I supposed to approach it using Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords.
Thank you
