RE: block internet at two workstations

Setup Static IP reservations in DHCP Server for the Two WorkStations
(based on their MAC address). 
Then block these two IP's at your Firewall \ Internet Router. You won't
have to "configure" anything on the workstations.

I hope this isn't a repeat message... my outlook is acting up...

Yeah, the netgear box is set up for DHCP... If I set static 
IPs, I don't want a smart network user to be able to reset 
the default gateway

My ISP guys said:
Most routers will allow you to filter by Mac address. i.e. 
Use winipcfg or ipconfig to get the Mac address of the 
network card in the work stations you wish to block. Then add 
them into the filtered list. This will allow them the freedom 
of the inside network but will not be able to surf outside.

That sounds good.  Not sure if the netgear FVS 318 will do that though

Oh its there.  I would think the netgear is dolling out dhcp 
info to the workstations.  setup the workstations in question 
with static settings and omit the default gateway entry.

With the ISP I'm using and the netgear FVS 318 box, I don't 
need a default gateway entered at all on the stations

I'm working with a small (10 user network) with a netgear 
FVS318 firewall, accessing the internet via cable modem.. The 
client wants to block internet access at two workstations.  I 
don't see anything available within the firewall 
documentation/configuration that would address this.  What is 
the best and easiest way to do this ...easy and best may be a 
contradiction :-)
 
TIA
Tim
