Enabling Bandwidth Contract Support for RAPs
This release of ArubaOS provides Bandwidth Contract support on remote APs. This is achieved by extending the
Bandwidth Contract support on split-tunnel and bridge modes.
You can apply Bandwidth Contract for a RAP on a per-user or per-role basis. By default, Bandwidth Contract is
applied on a per-role basis. This implies that all the users belonging to the same role will share the bandwidth pool.
When Bandwidth Contract configured on the controller is attached to a user-role, it automatically gets pushed to
the RAPs terminating on it.
The following show commands have been enhanced in this release to retrieve the Bandwidth Contract information
from the RAP:
show datapath user ap-name <ap-name>
show datapath bwm ap-name <ap-name>
NOTE: Bandwidth Contract is not supported on legacy APs such as AP6x, AP70 and RAP-2 due to memory constrains.
Configuring Bandwidth Contracts for RAP
You can configure bandwidth contracts for RAP on a per-role or per-user basis. The following examples illustrate how
to configure, apply, and verify the Bandwidth Contracts on the RAPs.
Defining Bandwidth Contracts
Use the following command to define a 256 Kbps contract:
(host) (config) #aaa bandwidth-contract 256k kbits 256
Use the following command to define a 512 Kbps contract
(host) (config) #aaa bandwidth-contract 512k kbits 512
Applying Contracts
You can apply the contract on a per-role or per-user basis.
Applying Contracts Per-Role
Use the following commands to apply the contracts on a per-role basis for upstream and downstream:
For upstream contract of 512 Kbps:
(host) (config) #user-role authenticated bw-contract 512k upstream
For downstream contract of 256 Kbps:
(host) (config) #user-role authenticated bw-contract 256k downstream
Applying Contracts Per-User
Use the following commands to apply the contracts on a per-user basis for upstream and downstream:
For upstream contract of 512 Kbps:
(host) (config) #user-role authenticated bw-contract 512k per-user upstream
For downstream contract of 256 Kbps:
(host) (config) #user-role authenticated bw-contract 256k per-user downstream
