Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi there, Do FreeBSD allow me to control traffic from client checked from the MAC address. My problem is that everyone is allowed to connect to the network it self but I need to filter users at the boarder firewall. I will give any user IP number from DHCP server but if someone fakes IP number then I have problems. Some users buy the internet connection then they are given another IP number, and passed over the boarder firewall. But to be sure I would like to check if their MAC address matches the IP. Any solution? TIA Thordur Ivarsson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
