Limit a local user to 500mb per day?

[Deepseadata]

Hi everyone,

I've got 60 users sharing a satellite internet connection. There are a few bandwidth hogs that are ruining it for everyone. I've got an ASA5510 that I was hoping to configure to limit users to a predetermined amount of data per day. I've been trying different search terms but I don't really know what to call this so it's been pretty frustrating.

Can anyone give me some search terms to try?

What are things you can't do with just a Cisco ASA"



Seriously, you're going to need some external filtering to accomplish that, unless you want to rate-limit the speed of the pipe all day long to stay below the cap.

I agree with jpm121. A better way would be to control the bandwidth rather than establishing a quota. Of interest may be PacketShaper by Blue Coat.

We use it and it works very well.
