limiting internet bandwidth/usage on Guest wireless access

vinodjad1234 — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 04:31:00 GMT

Hi ,

I have guest wireless connection in my lan where as i have connected WLC in DMZ to firewall and it goes directly to internet ,....

now i am getting complaint about excessive internet usage in my premises ....

i want to limit the internet usage especially on guest wireless users .... do we have any option on WLC to limit the same or i need to limit the bandwidth on firewall interface only .....

can anybody suggest for the same?

You might be better off limiting the bandwidth on the FW. On the wlc you can limit per user, but not total bandwidth.

I don't know the Juniper FW, so you might want to post on their forum. I just thought since you mentioned that you could either do it on the wlc or the FW that it was possible and you knew how. I just don't know if the Juniper FW can or can't limit the overall traffic.
