      Hello,

      I was wondering: I would like to block access to users who have set static IP addresses, or only allow addresses that have DHCP leases.

      Is this at all possible?

      Joe

          Thanks for the reply Sh4. Unfortunately that doesn't exactly do what I want.

          Anyone who connects should be able to get a DHCP lease, but only those with a DHCP lease should have access across the WAN.
