RE: DHCP Appliance based on MAC Authentication

["Conlan Adams" <conlan () midwesteyebanks org>]

Unless I am mistaken, almost any DHCP server has settings to allow this.

In windows, just exclude the entire range.  Then assign IP's by
reservations based on MAC address.

In linux its all handled in side the reservations file, very similar to
this.
