Higher Education

Hi guys,

I'm tasked with the idea to disconnect student's from 24/7 internet through school wifi, and let teachers control internet access for their class's students in a time-specific manner.
e.g. students are given internet access for 30 minutes for an assignment, and the teacher can 'switch on' access with a simple self-service portal. After time is up, internet access is retracted automatically.

Any idea if this can be done purely with Clearpass alone?

Thanks for all your input.

I don't think you can make that really easy with ClearPass. One challenge is how to know which clients belong to students in a specific class, and which to the classroom next door.

In the past there were third party solutions that built such classroom management, but it has been a while since I last saw those, so can't really help with that. Others may know some product that works well (or not..)?
