Non-Admin user Login to view their Bandwidth Quota usage?

Post by Cachorro »

Hi,
Is there a simple way to create a webpage for 'end users' to access a 'Quota' status page with or without login?
(by simple I mean, something like a plug-in install or similar)

All I am interested is for users to be able to keep an eye on their quota.

Also, email them for quota limits to be reached, or daily/hourly, would be great.

Thank you in advance.

Hi ispyisail.

How is this done? Is there a specific port to hit other than port 80 or 8080?
All I get is only the login screen for the router 'administrator' account.

Also, is the quota email alert? If that is also there, how do we get it working for each quota user?

Thanks.

no email option that I know of

You need to set up a quota for the option to show on the web page

Hi
I do have quotas setup, this is why I changed to Gargoyle.
Still, no information is displayed on the login page.
Regards.

Hello ispyisail,

I must be forth coming here. Your were correct, but had missed a little detail, which I just today picked up on...

The message of remaining quota IS there, but only if you are accessing the router's webmin page from a 'quotad' IP address. I had not seen this until today, when I accessed the router from a machine belonging to a Quota'ed' user. To my surprise. :)

So, this is actually GREAT NEWS for me.

I had never seen this message displayed below the Password prompt, as I have always accessed the router from my machines/tablet/phone which are unlimited.

Hope this helps others.
And thanks ispyisail.
;)
