RE: block internet at two workstations

Ok how do you expect to do name resolution on the LAN with DNS removed?
default route is a good idea but I think DNS is an overkill. Regardless
if you don't have default routes and you have DNS the machine know's how
to resolve but just doesn't know how to get there.

I Just hope the users are not smart enough to add default routes or DNS
:)

Two quickest and easiest ways?

Remove DNS and default gateway from the two boxes.

This way those machines cannot access the internet because they cannot
route.

Subject: block internet at two workstations


I'm working with a small (10 user network) with a netgear FVS318
firewall, accessing the internet via cable modem.. The client wants to
block internet access at two workstations.  I don't see anything
available within the firewall documentation/configuration that would
address this.  What is the best and easiest way to do this ...easy and
best may be a contradiction :-)
 
TIA
Tim
