I was working on bridging all the macs known on a port
(ie when you got a hub, you 'd like all you're computers to be bridged
when you ask for vlanchanging).
There is no problem to know all the macs (see telnet/info)
BUT we need the IPs.
4 solutions:
1- The client sends the IP list
2- We make a reverse ARP
3- We ask to the VLANbridge
4- We ask to Webbase
These are the only 4 solutions I've seen. Do you have another one ?
The problems are:
1- What about the security (I can ask for bridging anyone ...) ?
2- What if the macs are not in the same VLAN as VLANserver ?
What do you think of that ?
