Cambium Traffic Class support

Cambium Traffic Class attributes are supported for wireless guest clients. Access point (AP) allows guest clients to communicate destinations (defined using IP/Network address) defined under traffic class names without completing the guest authentication. The RADIUS server can push traffic class name and data quota as part of the RADIUS accept packet or COA update. AP keeps track of guest clients traffic usage against each traffic class and data utilization information is sent to the accounting server in RADIUS accounting packets (Account-Interim update and account stop messages).

Traffic class can be defined under the WLAN profile and only 3 traffic classes are supported via CLI mode only. If APs are managed from cnMaestro, traffic class can be configured in AP Group using User-Defined Overrides options. When the traffic class quota gets exhausted, user clients are redirected to the external captive portal server.

Cambium Networks Wi-Fi devices support the following Cambium vendor-specific (VSA 17713) Traffic Class attributes:

Name Number Type
Cam-Vlan-Pool-Id 157 string
CAMB-Authorize-Classes 158 tlv
