So hey! For the record: in situations where you have a set of workstations and a set of BYOD laptops/smartphones/PDAs/whatever is new this years?

Do yourself a favor:

Set up TWO subnets. They can be visible to each other if that's what you really want, but make it so that the workstations have long or static leases, and the BYOD idiocy has short leases.

Please, please, please, please, please do NOT issue short leases [>24h] to everything on the network because you're "running out of IPs"

That is not a game you want to be playing, and it will make me very sad.

@munin just use IPv6 :troll:

@lojikil Honestly?

That would make this situation better. I haven't even mentioned the NAT situation.

@munin I mean, it certainly would fix the DHCP situation, and you could shunt of people who don't pass certain checks into the "these are bad people" CIDR and enforce segmentation elsewhere...
