Instead of forcing a fixed IP, I would look for some captive
portal+firewall that creates dynamic filtering rules depending on the
username:
- the user's machine gets on the network and acquire a dynamic IP
- the user connects to the captive portal
- the firewall updates the filtering rules for the IP being used by the user
That would be more flexible.
Best regards,
Olivier
