The system is open-source software developed in Shell Script on CentOS distribution of Linux operating system. A web application for administration purposes were developed in PHP and the database was based on MySQL. The System development Life Cycle was used in the design and development of the system. The administration system developed in this study was designed for administrators who do not have expertise in network administration; thus the administrators will be able to easily manage internet usage and evaluate the system performance without difficulties under security protected system. The system can be used to handle the following tasks: user and group management, configuring download and upload speed, configuring expiration date for user accounts, modifying log-in screen, title bar, and welcome or error messages, modifying user’s guide, and reporting the number of online users and their usage history. The usage history and statistics can be displayed by specifying a period of query (by date and by monthly or yearly). In this study, we used the Black Box Testing method to evaluate the system performance. The research population of 30 persons were selected from a group of computer experts, network administrators and end users to evaluate the internet control system. The results of evaluation showed that the system performance is good and stable, administration tools are easily to use, network administrators are able to control Internet speed so that the overall performance is improved, the university is able to save budget for proprietary software licenses and also effectively improve security of the network against unauthorized use.
