Hotspot users automatic expiry

Hello.
I have been using the hotspot feature on the mikrotik router OS.
I need to know if I can somehow create users to expire automatically, say after 12 hours or 1day.
I would also like to know if there is a way of generating random logins and passwords, whereby when the user comes, he will sort of buy a scratch card with the login and password which would then expire in say 1day or 12hours or 1hour after his first login

Use User Manager, which is a Mikrotik RADIUS server for RouterOS. It supports the concept pf vouchers, which is exactly what you are looking for.

Fewi is right, you are looking to use Radius. Weather this be User Manager or another Radius server and back end system.
This describes the Radius Attributes available, I believe the Session-Timeout would be what you are looking for.
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/RADIUS_Client
As far as generating random user names/passwords, it all depends on the back end system being used.

Hi we have a package for this kind of requirement we are using currently what you are required it cost us around Rs. 4500/- INR which includes a radius and web user interface which allow you to set the session time after that the user id and password becomes useless.
you you need this just let me know.

Actually I am a bit new at these things.
Is this User Manager part of the router OS I have or is it a separate entity?
How difficult is it to set it up?

The best method is to use Radius server based users were you have lots of options like what you are talking a bout.
