There is a great solution, but my Apple shares would suffer from it...
Would you like to block Pocket PC and Symbian?,
those I don't mind!

p.s. : seriously this is where the engineer has to become a sociologist
and tell the customer that OS discrimination is not PC ;-)

Has anyone figured out a way to block iPhones? Not that I think

a good idea but I seem to get this request more and more frequently

I cant seem to find anything unique.
Some ideas I have thought about:
Blocking mDNS (probably a good idea anyway)
Blocking bonjour
Blocking OUIs
APPLE's OUI's

None of these will work well because they can cause other problems for
other users when blocked. MACs and PCs can use bonjour, I don't think
the iphone uses a specific range of OUIs, etc.
I haven't sniffed the iphone DHCP request but I was hoping maybe they
use option 43 or something to uniquely identify themselves which can
get
a blocked ip address or something.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Emerson
