Hotspot: Timelimit for vouchers and logging for hotspot users
It would be very nice to set a expiration date or time for vouchers.
If a user get a voucher for 5h or so, this user can use this voucher every time, till the surfing-time expire. So, it could be a security problem.
The easiest way to realize it quick and dirty is, to set a global time (1-7 days) and after this time the voucher is marked as "disabled".
Also it would be great to log the user webbrowsings in the webproxy for example with a voucher-id (voucher code abcdef gets the voucher-id 1, voucher code ghijk gets the voucher-id 2.. and so on). On this way it is a little easier to identify some "bad users"...
You know what i mean i hope..

Hey, okay, the first point (validity period) is done. I don't saw (or registered) this option before... my mistake!
But the second point is very interesting i think.
Actually we can only filter the webproxy by ip address (f.e. the wlan ip-network). It would be a nice feature to combine it which the voucher-code. If we get some mail from fbi, we can say "Mr. X was here on 3rd May and visited the site xyztorrent.org.. " ;-)
Do you understand what i mean? -
Hi, we actually have a filter there in the UserPortal to show expired vouchers. Do you need more? Otherwise, we'll mark this as already possible. Hope that helps! If not, let me know.

Edit: okay.. i can use the option "valid until".. but i can't see in userportal if a voucher is expired (marked red and disabled..) or not... that would be interesting.
