You could register them on the campus DHCP by using MAC address cloning - either take a linux machine, reset its adapter MAC address using the command line / GUI, and register it with DHCP, or use a NAT router/firewall set up to clone the MAC address of the printer. ---- Jack Kramer Computer Systems Specialist University Relations, Michigan State University w: 517-884-1231 / c: 248-635-4955 > From: Gary Schrock <[log in to unmask]> > Reply-To: Gary Schrock <[log in to unmask]> > Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 15:07:37 -0500 > To: "[log in to unmask]" <[log in to unmask]> > Subject: [MSUNAG] changes in access to 35.15 from wireless and vpn? > > Out of curiosity, I'm wondering if anyone has noticed any changes to > whether wireless (using the MSU Wireless and/or MSU Wireless Guest) or > vpn can access the 35.15 block of ips?
