We're working on ours.. I have a list of 102 right now, but I don't have the specific console/device identified. As we move to packetfence and our new game registration system (not packetfence), we'll be identifying these more directly. > This is just a thought, but...would it be a horrendous idea to remove the OUI > check altogether?

Accuracy is about it. I don't think you'll have any sort of technical issue by removing it. You might end up with users who register computers into the gaming network, but I don't think it's necessarily a security issue. > Am I missing something? > > Thank you so much! > > Jake Sallee -- --------------------------- Jason 'XenoPhage' Frisvold [email protected] --------------------------- "Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology.\" - Niven's Inverse of Clarke's Third Law ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
