Assign user per IP/MAC?

Hi, Peter, and welcome to the UTM Community!

That depends. What are you wanting to accomplish?

Cheers - Bob

Thanks Bob!

I would like to assign a user to my family members. For instance my daughter has an iPad. I would like to be able to assign that to a user, so I can get a report and can setup quotas based on that user.

What would be the normal approach to assign a user to her iPad?

Cheers,

Peter

Thanks vilic,

I have that already, but I'm not to impressed by that. It seems one can do a lot more (e.g. reports) if one assigns users.

Cheers

You will see your predefined name for the device. If UTM have static network host definition object, it will replace that IP with Name attribute in reports.

Thanks vilic,

I know, but if you look at stuff like Quota status, it is empty because no users are used:

That is true...unless you implement STAS. That would require Active Directory services and devices joined to domain (not sure if that can be done with iPADs).

Too much work in my opinion (overkill...[;)])

If I would let my daughter authenticate with her iPad, would all other users also need to do so?

Cheers,

Peter

No, because authentication method is defined per Web Filtering Profile. Profiles are evaluating from top to the bottom, where first match is applied without further processing.

Since the kids are on their own vlan, it seems that this seems to work (only the kids need to authenticate now):

So, now my daughter needs to authenticate via the browser, but whatever I try. The username/password never gets accepted. Why is that? I've tried multiple users/passwords. I'm 100% sure I entered it correct.

I've created the user (as you can see above), but I've done nothing else with it. Maybe it needs to be in some kind of group or something?

Cheers

Hi Peter,

What is the UTM's firmware version? I request you to upgrade on the latest version i.e., v9.401, which should resolve the issue.

Thanks

Thanks Sachin, I have 9.355-1 which should be the latest..

Cheers

This quota stuff just isn't working. When my daughter gets out of bed in the morning the quota is supposedly already reached and youtube is already blocked.

The only thing that's on quota right now is the category 'Streaming' that's it.. 

Quota's is useless like this.

I really hope someone could help me.
