I would like to restrict DHCP services by workstation MAC address. I would like for dhcpd to only respond to work stations with a known MAC address.
I used iptables rules to ACCEPT requests to the DHCP server only from the known MAC address(es) and this works fine for workstations on the same subnet as the DHCP server. However, when I expand the service to multiple subnets across a router the DHCP request packet comes through with the MAC address of the router port so my iptables rule does not stop it. Obviously, dhcpd knows the workstation MAC address, but I don't know how I can get/use the information to accomplish what I want. Is it possible to do what I am trying to do? In case you're wondering, the reason I'm trying to do this is to prevent people from brining their virus infected laptops onto campus and having them start broadcasting all over our nice clean network.
