Hi! We did this a couple of years ago due to shitty switches that didn't even had the possibility to filter out packets from rouge DHCP servers. What we did was using a central database and scripts on the linux boxes instead that handled all the hard work of setting up/removing interfaces. Worked very well and we also incorporated multiple routing tables and per user packet shaping. Maybe that would be another approach to solve the problem. /Regards Oscar On Mon, 15 Nov 2010 10:47:31 +0000, Asher Awelan <asherawelan@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > SCENARIO: > I have inherited a hospitality solution which uses 802.11q tagging on it's > switched network for the purpose of room identification, i.e. one port per > room. > My current handling of this is working but not stable and is memory heavy. > Currently I have the 250 (I know!)
