System Administration 101
The lifetime of a group policy record in the collection is determined by the session time of the
authorized (i.e. VALID) subscribers participating in the group. Group policy records are
removed from the collection when the last subscriber device belonging to the group is logged
out of the NSE regardless of the reason (e.g. session timeout, idle timeout, deletion of the
subscriber by an administrator, etc).
The NSE does not support the ability to enforce both per-subscriber and group bandwidth rates
simultaneously for the same subscribers. The RADIUS server must specify either per-
subscriber or group bandwidth attributes. However, in case a RADIUS Access-Accept
contains both individual and group bandwidth attributes,
the NSE will use the group attributes
and ignore the per-subscriber attributes .
Group Bandwidth Limit Policy – Enable
The Group Bandwidth feature is globally enabled via an option on the Bandwidth management
page.
The NSE can concurrently support some subscribers as part of a group and some
others with limits set on a per-subscriber basis. However, a single subscriber
cannot be assigned group membership and individual limits at the same time.
