Disconnect site when quota timed out

XG SFVH (SFOS 20.0.0 GA-Build222)

I have set up a web policy with quota for gaming.  I would like it to disconnect user from site after time is used.  The way it works now is the user can continue playing as long as they logged in before the quota time was used up.  After quota time is used up if I open up another window and try to log into same game I get site is blocked message but the other window with same game is still active.  Is there a way to close out the active game?

  • I don't think this is possible; your "current" connection uses an active connection which in a stateful firewall remains open as long as data is carried over.

    The hotspot option mentioned by   would probably work, but it will cut off all connectivity, also to sites that are not time limited. This would mean you would have to only allow gaming through the hotspot feature, while allowing other traffic without the vouchers. 

    This is possible, but it is not a nice situation. Not sure however how to achieve your goal any other way.
