Hi, I work at a ISP and I am changing my 1100 Routerboards for x86 servers.

I use PPPoE authentication, I have about 200 clients.

I am not sure wich license version I should buy, because I am in doubt about the "User manager active sessions" limitations.

What does that mean? What license do I need to have 200 concurrent PPPoE clients?

WISP AP (Level 5) $95.00
CONTROLLER (Level 6) $250.00

Thanks!

I would go with the level 6 license. This way you won't need to worry about expansion in the future.

Hi cbrown,

Thanks for the reply.

Well, I am not worried about reaching 500 PPPoE authentications (level 5). If I ever reach that number, it would take years.

My question is what means "user manager active sessions"? What is the 50 connections limitation? 50 "admin" accounts?

Thanks!

Does that mean that while I can have 500 PPPoE users, only 50 of them can be active at a time? (on license level 5).

Thanks.

no. license level 5 allows 500 active users: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Li ... nse_Levels

Thanks! That's all I needed to know.
