PPPoE with Radius Athentication and URL Advertise

Is there a way to setup the routerOS so that customer that connect via PPPoE also get a forced advertiseURL. Or a Force first page.

Thanks

hi,
with radius u can use the attribute Exec-Program-Wait allows you to set up an external program which is executed after authentication , put it in your users file /etc/raddb/users and make a script to redirect them after the authentication and that;s it , it work

RouterOS accepts the "Advertise-URL" radius attribute.
Just configure your radius server to send it as a reply attribute when the customer logs on.

ofasa: Are you sure this attribute works for clients authentificating via PPPoE Client, too? It sounds to me like a hotspot feature.

cmarazzi uses PPPoE Dialin, not the Web-based Hotspot Login.

I tried it but with PPPoE this does not work. I guess this attribute is only for HotSpot. Maybe someone from MikroTik can clarify this.

I would like to use these feture because when my customer get their account suspended due to payment, they think the rsone they are not cooecting has to do with something technical in ther computer, as so they go in into thier PC configurations and mess it all up. Until they deside to call and we need to get them to pay and also provide tech support to fix what they messed up. So I would like to send them message to their web browser day before they are going to be suspeneded. The other thing I wanted to do was to allow suspended customer to conect but have all ther traffic redirected to a payment portal.

any ideas?

thanks

advertise url will not work for pppoe. what you can do is - assign different addresses for the non-paying pppoe users, and then redirect those addresses to a proxy which will then redirect them to some webpage.

normis thank you for the answer. I set different pools for different type of customers. Can you give me some hints for how I would go about redirecting certin addresses to a proxy, would I hve to mark the packet first?

Thanks.
