[EXTERNAL] Limiting Max daily session

[Winfield, Alister]

You need to understand the equipment managing the users sessions...

It 'might' support quotas in some way including associated accounting.
It 'might' only support the default timeout options in which case work that out.
It 'might' claim to support the above options but not really work well because its behaviour is broken w.r.t. DHCP clients having leases longer than the timeout.

Note first step how does your equipment behave and what can you do with RADIUS attributes. Then work out what FR needs to do to get it to happen. One thing you can't avoid, however, is storing state, no matter how you do this you are tracking the time usage of a 'device' across distinct sessions.
