        If not possible, is it possible to force a user created in the captive portal to a certain ip address?

          Captive portal logins are strictly based on IP and MAC address. If a user logs in on a machine, and then someone else logs into the same machine, the second user will retain the first user's access unless/until the first user is logged off by an idle or hard timeout. Not possible to force users to certain IPs via CP, IP assignment isn't related to CP.
