[K12OSN] Local apps question

[Burke Almquist]

You could set up your dhcp server to only give out addresses to known clients by mac address, but I guess technically I guess they could still use a static ip, netmask, and gateway.
You'd have to set up a non-transparent proxy if you want to block internet access for PCs.
