Description

I'm using pfsense and the captive portal.

If an user enters a voucher he is added to the Pass-through MAC list.

The issue is he can enter the voucher multiple times and the MAC is added multiple times to the Pass-through list.

I think the entry should be updated and not added a new one.

I have some MAC-Adresses 4 or 5 times on the list.

This does not belong under packages, plus a feature request, not a bug.

It is a feature not having multiple passthrumac entries?

Clearly there are many use cases where limiting users to one device is undesired. Should be something bound to "Disable concurrent logins", not enforced by default on everyone. If you always "update" the entry instead of doing additional checks, that just breaks those use cases.

RADIUS with no concurrent logins enabled is the answer here. The built-in voucher system isn't intended for that type of usage. RADIUS can be treated as vouchers.
