I think George is trying to carry out selective banning -> You deny
>>specific<< MAC addresses config info, all the rest get.
You may use classes and pools to achieve this:
#Create a class that will contain the soon to be banned MAC address.
class "ban" {
match if substring (hardware, 1, 6);
}
#specify a pool in which this MAC doesn't get an IP address.
pool {
deny members of "ban";
range 10.0.29.10 10.0.29.230;
}
Let us know if it pans out.
Cheers,
Benjamin
