RE: dhcp / mac address

It would be nice in theory to restrict mac addresses to the ones in your
network - if you have more than 20-30 hosts, the administration efforts will
be herculean. For this reason most people let anyone get an IP address.

Do most of you restrict your DHCP server to only MAC
addresses that are on your LAN PCs, or is it any one
who connects to your network?
