Web Security: Time Quotas for Internet access

I have had many requests to have a policy in our Web Security section where it is possible to allocate a time quota for Internet Access. They do not want to limit when people have access to Facebook for example but how long they are allowed to visit these type of sites.

        I would appreciate if this feature would be available very soon. Even a simple AVM Fritz!Box is able to limit internet access by time.

        Our rivals in the UK are exploiting our weakness in this area and we are losing business - GBP5400 cross sell (existing 500 user Endpoint customer) lost to Bloxx

        We need this in both UTM and point product. We just lost a deal again because of the lack of this functionality

        It's very importa as a function. For privacy law the boss cannot know where the employee go but it's importa to give a time limit to internet access.
        I hope we can make this control from the next upgrade for Astaro.

        Very good ! 1. private / work option 2. time / traffic 3. very important for home edition, priorities combined with categorys -- games factor parameter for example 5x and google 1x and/or social networks 3x and so on...
