I would like to give out IP's only to users with thier MAC Address in a table and all others are rejected. Anyone know how I can accomplish this

Thanks, Jim
 
Hi,

I understand that the DHCP should be configured to assign IP address to
only for those clients whose MAC address is found in a table and IP request
from other systems should be rejected.

Please create the DHCP scope and configure the client reservation for all
the IP addresses with the corresponding MAC address. Individual
reservations could be added for each client, plus all outstanding addresses
within the DHCP scope could be excluded. This way an unauthorized machine
would not be able to obtain a DHCP lease.

If I find any workarounds to achieve this objective, I will update you.

Thank you,

Rashmi

Hi,

Thank you for the response.

I understand that you want the DHCP to check the table of MAC address and
provide the Dynamic IP address.

Jim, there is no option on Windows 2000 DHCP server which can be configured
to check a reference table before assigning the IP address.

Another possibility of assigning DHCP addresses only to a group of systems
is to assign the classID. ClassID for the clients can be set using the
ipconfig command. Please find related links.

Using option classes

I hope I answered your query.

| Thanks for responding Rashmi.

If you use a "reservation" you are assigning a static IP address defeating
the function of DHCP. Correct me if I am wrong. I do not want any pc to get
an IP without me knowing via MAC address list or something and I need to
use the Dynamic IP scheme. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Jim
