Time limit of a client / client group

« on: June 06, 2023, 02:25:38 pm »

Hello people!
I want to time limit a client and / or a client group (from ... to) and also the internet usage. A super simple thing, unfortunately the setting is somehow cumbersome ... Maybe someone has already dealt with this and can give me a useful info (link) about it? Thanks!!!

You can use schedule-based rules.

Basically you create a schedule that you want to allow(or restrict) clients to use internet (Firewall>Settings>Schedules), then you attach the schedule to the allow/block rule.

Thanks for the quick response! 🙌
Very cumbersome procedure and the duration of use, so for example 3 hours/day I can not set in OPNSense. Must come up with something else
