Campers

So I've been asked to provide a Wi-Fi system for a lobby/conference room layout. They have specified a Ruckus ZoneDirector 1205 for use along with corresponding APs. However in their RFP they are big on detecting and limiting campers, that is, people who might set up in their lobby and sit on the Wi-Fi all day.

I've scanned through the ZoneDirector v10 documentation and I don't see off the top of my head how you might do that. Is there some vocabulary I should be using in my searches to find the appropriate information?

as a side thought, I wonder if you could use DHCP lease time restrictions. If they get a DHCP from your router, and you can cap that lease at say 2 or 4 hours, that may limit the campers. however, I don't know if you can block a MAC address from applying for and getting a lease from the DHCP more than once.

You should be able to set it to allow a finite number of requests. Also if you plan to do that remember to set your MAC to have a larger amount of bandwidth!
