// This not prevent this guy to cause that problem. U can block access on

// 1. use cosh (not need to know freebsd operating system :) )
// 2. use some authentication method to acces network (i recommend u pppoe)

well ... it is the new intern at the taipei/taiwan office

he is assigning addresses of the 192.168.1.x to his NIC (wich is reserved
for servers, vpn connections, ...). i told him to let DHCP configure his NIC
(192.168.2.x are dynamic) but he just switches the 192.168,1,x addresses. i
have been chasing him for a few days and want to bring it to an end.

i CANNOT block the addresses he assigns to his nic as they belong to
servers, vpn connections, ... which obviously are needed.

i CANNOT kick him off the network totally (asked his boss in taipei/taiwan
office) using MAC or so as he needs access to do his work

therefore i want to secure the 192.168.1.x IPs by not leting him get traffic
through by combining MAC with off-limit IPs such as:

block traffic if src-MAC = {interns MAC} and src-MAC !=
{192.168.2.0/ff:ff:ff:00}

or something like that ...

P.S.: What is "cosh"
