Greetings, I'm Professor Kay. And in this short video presentation, we're going to see how we go about denying DHCP services to a particular machine on our network. Now, you may have a machine that you do not want to be able to have access to your DHCP scope for whatever reason. Now to do this, we're up inside the DHCP console. And this option that we're about to perform this filtering is only available under IP version four. So go ahead and expand your IP version four scope and go on down to filtering.

Here you have two options either allow or deny. We're going to deny a machine based on his MAC address. So to do this, I'm going to right click on deny, select new filter, and I'm going to put in the MAC address of this machine. Here I can type in a description. And when you're all done there and you say add and close, now that we have the filtering place we need to enable it. So what I'm going to do now is right click on here and I'm going to select Enable.

And once we do a refresh, and we go back inside of the deny option, you'll see that over here in the right window pane, we have that filter listed, and it tells us that it is currently under deny. Now, if you would like to change this option, and to allow this filter, you can do so very easily just by right clicking on the actual filter itself, and choose to move to allow. Now if I click on allow, there's the filter. And if I would like to move it back over to deny, I can just right click on it and move to deny. And so that's going to conclude this short video presentation on how we go about denying a particular machine DHCP services based on its MAC address. So if you have any questions or you have any concerns about any of the information that was presented to you in this short video presence, Please don't hesitate to reach out contact your instructor and I'll see you in my next video.
