Is it possible to dynamically manage client bandwidth via the RADIUS server and BBSM?
A. Yes. This can be achieved by using the Cisco Building Broadband Service Manager (BBSM) with RADIUS server. Cisco BBSM provides public and guest Internet access management features and functionality to wired and wireless networks. It works with Cisco access-layer LAN products like access layer switches. Refer to Cisco BBSM documentation for more information. BBSM performs RADIUS authentication and authorization of end users (of a specific VLAN). Each time the end user attempts to connect to the Internet, BBSM prompts for a username and password. The values entered are used in the Access-Request packet to the RADIUS authentication server. Upon successful authentication, the RADIUS server sends a vendor-specific attribute that contains a bandwidth kbps value in the Access-Accept packet. When the RADIUS server sends this vendor-specific attribute that contains a bandwidth kbps value, BBSM throttles the bandwidth of the end user session to the kbps value specified.
