So I am finally replacing our 2003 DHCP servers with 2008 R2. I see the option to allow only those MAC ID's that we know about. We have a small network, and I am reviewing the current leases. Our IT dept knows about each device (whoo hoo) that is currently leased. I would *like* to enable this option and import each MAC address into each DHCP server. Is there an import option? I can right click a current lease and add to the deny or allow filter, but I would like an import of some sort.
For servers prior to 2008R2 there is a separate download "MacFilterCallout.dll" and "SetupDHCPMacFilter.rtf". This installs to %SystemRoot%\system32 and has some import functions, but I don't see it in my 2008R2 server. I know you can spoof a MAC ID, we do have a company policy to use our WiFi outside of our network, but this reduces our attack surface (salesmen and who-knows-what's on their laptops etc...) Anyone using MAC ID filtering on 2008 R2 DHCP? If so, how do you handle mulitple servers and mass import of the mac addresses?
