Hiya,

Does anyone know of any tutorials for setting up a "walled garden"?
I work for an ISP and we'd like to allow a specific dialup account
Free Access via our RADIUS, but we want to limit this user to access
just three or so urls: Our customer {registration|renewal|webselfcare}
interfaces only.

I am looking for ideas on how this is done. I suppose it's done on the
NAS, yes?

How will the users connect? Using DHCP to get their IPs or PPPoE ?

I will let them use just a single username to connect. This username is
allowed concurrent connections though.

You may take a look at pfsense.com which is free and has a wallen garden solution

I have played just a bit with pfsense, but my cards gave me
headache. I'll look again just for the ideas.

or www.mikrotik.com which is not free but has a pretty damn good implementation

We have Mikrotik hardware/software. I had mentioned this to our network
engineers, but I guess they just decided to be lazy then, no?


of what you want pluss commercial atheros drivers and much more.

I want a simple Open Source implementation.

Thanks. Ideas have been coming at a very goof pace. I am grateful to
this list!
