Rolando:
  The functionality that you are requesting falls in a new breed of
products that use a concept called Network Admission Control or Unified
Access Control. This forms the layer 2 component of the above, where the
authentication is done using 802.1x protocols, subsequent to which the
host is authorized to access the LAN It must be noted however that the
client will need an IP address to get authorized, but it wont be able to
access the network. The auth can be hooked up with AD or Radius as you
please. All major players, Symantec Juniper and Cisco have products in
the market or the pipeline.

I believe the only way you can configure a DHCP server to ignore 
DHCPDISCOVER broadcasts is to setup restrictions by MAC address (which

can be spoofed). I do not see how you can restrict IP leasing via 
Active Directory user authentication. You can restrict other network 
resources until authentication has occurred via AD, but the client 
system must already have an IP for this communciation to occur. 
Meaning the DHCP server has already been solicited and assigned an IP.

Thanks

Hello all,

Is there a way that in DHCP or so, one can deny a client computer 
from obtaining an IP address? We use Microsoft servers ADS 
environment and I'd like to allow only those we want to obtain an IP 
address. I don't want to make it too restricted where authorized 
users are unable to connect. I'm sure there are some 3rd party apps 
that can handle this and I welcome suggestions on those also. This is

a solution for denying connectivity to outsiders.

Thank you
