Hi.

I use dnsmasq to provide DNS cache on my network , now I want to give user IP address from MAC address.
I want also to control/security my network : When somebody uplink computer in switch with strange IP/MAC address I want to get ALARM (e-mail??) and dont have access to my network and Internet.

Any TIP?

Not sure about the alert part, but the DHCP part of dnsmasq is easy to setup. In /etc/dnsmasq.conf, uncomment or add the following line:
Code:
dhcp-range=192.168.0.2,192.168.0.250,255.255.255.0,192.168.0.255,infinite


To give a specific IP to a specific MAC address add this:
Code:
# Always allocate the host with ethernet address 11:22:33:44:55:66
# The IP address 192.168.0.60
dhcp-host=00:E0:29:3C:A6:AF,arnor,192.168.0.2
