Setting Up FUP (Fair Usage)

With a Fair Usage Policy (FUP), users who use up their traffic quota are not cut off. They continue at a lower speed until their next renewal (or until the next day, for daily limits).
Example: 20 Mbps with 100 GB per month, then 4 Mbps

3. What happens
When the user has used 100 GB, SAS Radius disconnects the user, and at the next connection the user gets the 4 Mbps speed of 20M-FUP.
At the next activation the user gets a new 100 GB quota and the full speed again.
Without a Quota Next Profile, a user who uses up the quota can't connect until renewed.
Daily limits
To limit daily usage (for example 10 GB per day), set Daily Traffic Limit to 10240 MB and Daily Limit Next Profile to an FUP profile. The user gets the reduced speed for the rest of the day; the daily counters reset at midnight.
Daily usage can also be reset with Reset Traffic on the user's Overview, or with an extension that has Resets Daily Traffic ON.
Tips
Keep traffic limits OFF on the FUP profile itself, and use one FUP level per package.
Extra traffic can be sold with an extension package (see Extension Packages) or added with Add Traffic.
Warn users before they reach the limit with Usage Notifications.
