1 Hi All,
2
3 In my current situation, my home network has 1 DHCP server for all the
4 clients on the home network.
5
6 My laptop, also runs a dhcp server, for when I use my laptop as a
7 firewall/router at work. (no HUB/switch available)
8
9 WHen I get home and I plug into the home-network, a newly booted up PC
10 will contact my laptop's DHCP for an address rather than the Home
11 network's DHCP server.
12
13 The question is, how can I deny these Home-PCs access to my laptop's
14 DHCP server. I know of the "deny" config for pool addreses, but it's not
15 horribly clear how this is done.
16
17 Would appreciate a few pointers
