23.1 Legacy Series / DHCP MAC Address Control
« on: April 15, 2023, 11:50:12 pm »
Hi everyone! I just switched from pfSense (and so far everything went smoothly) and decided to also start better managing my devices. I was wondering if I can assign a pool for a specific MAC address, for example:
I want all mac address that start with 00:0c to be assigned an IP address from a specific pool and not other.
The reason for this is just for convenience, as I thought to use it as a way to more easily identify and control specific devices in my network.
I am aware of the MAC Address Control option that allows me to do something like that but if I understand correctly there is no way to prevent other device on the network to receive an IP from the same pool because there is no way (that I am aware of) to deny all mac address that don't fall on the allow list.
Thank you!
