Adding a Public Spot user

To register a new Public Spot user, simply enter the following URL:

http://<Geräte-URL>/cmdpbspotuser/
   ?action=addpbspotuser&parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2&...

The following parameters are available:

comment

Comment on the registered user

If it is possible to enter multiple comments for a Public Spot user, you can enter the comments and their corresponding comment-field names as follows:

&comment=<Content1>:<FieldName1>;<Content2>:<FieldName2>;...;<Content5>:<FeildName5>

If there is just one comment field per user, then the comment is entered as follows:

&comment=<Comment>

Note: Special characters such as German umlauts are not supported.

Note: The maximum number of characters for the comment parameter is 191 characters.

print

Automatic print-out of the voucher.

If this parameter is omitted, the wizard displays a button that you can use to print the voucher.

printcomment

Print the comment on the voucher.

If this parameter is omitted, no comment will appear on the voucher (default setting).

nbGuests

Number of Public Spot users to be created.

If this parameter is omitted, the wizard creates one user only (default setting).

defaults

Use default values

The wizard replaces missing or incorrect parameters with default values.

expirytype

Combined output of expiry type and, if applicable, the validity period of the voucher.

Specify this parameter as follows:

&expirytype=<Value1>+validper=<Value2>

The parameter values have the following meaning:

• Value1: Expiry type. Possible values are absolute, relative, both, and none.
• Value2: Time of the voucher's expiry if expirytype has the value both. In this case, you use validper to specify the voucher's maximum validity period in days for the absolute expiry type. For all other expiry types, the parameter validper is not set.

If a parameter is omitted or set with incorrect values the wizard will apply the default values.

ssid

Network name

If this parameter is omitted, the wizard uses the default network name (default setting).

unit

Access time

Specify this parameter as follows:

&unit=<Value1>+runtime=<Value2>

The parameter values have the following meaning:

• Value1: LIfetime units. Possible values are: Minute, hour, day
• Value2: Duration

timebudget

Time budget

If this parameter is omitted, the wizard uses the default value.

volumebudget

Volume budget

The following entries are allowed:

• k or K: Specified in kilobytes (kB), e.g. volumebudget=1000k.
• m or M: Specified in megabytes (MB), e.g. volumebudget=1000m.
• g or G: Specified in gigabytes (GB), e.g. volumebudget=1g.

Without a unit, the specification corresponds to a value in bytes (B). If this parameter is omitted completely, the wizard uses the default value.

multilogin

Multiple logins

If you specify this parameter, the user can login multiple times with his/her user account. If this parameter is missing, multiple logins are disabled by default.

maxconclogin

Maximum number of concurrent logins

With this parameter you specify with how many different end devices a user can login to a Public Spot. Valid entries are integers such as 0, 1, 2, ....

If this parameter is missing or if the parameter has the value 0, this means that the number of devices is unlimited.

Note: This parameter requires that multiple logins be enabled. Setting this parameter in isolation has no other effects.

casesensitive

Username case sensitive

If you enter this parameter, the Public Spot user must pay attention to capitalization when entering the user name at login. Valid values are:

• 0: Case-sensitive username is disabled
• 1: Case-sensitive username is enabled

If this parameter is omitted, the wizard uses the default value.

bandwidthprof

Bandwidth profile

With this parameter you assign a pre-defined bandwidth profile to a Public Spot user. Enter the valid value for this parameter as the line number of an existing profile name under Setup > Public Spot module > Add user wizard > Bandwidth profiles, such as

&bandwidthprof=1

to index the first entry in the table.

If this parameter is missing or the line number is invalid (for example, the table is empty), the wizard does not limit the bandwidth.
