1 Hello List!
2
3 We have a small network with two 24 port switches. We assign ip address to
4 clients by dhcp based on the clients mac address, and have a pool of
5 addresses for guest notebooks. My problem is that if someone plugs a notebook
6 into the network and gets an ip then I can't find out the location of the
7 machine. Is it possible to get the information that in which port of the
8 switch is the notebook connected to?
