You may get that to work but its usually safer and easier to setup a different wireless network just for mobile devices.

You may need to create several WiFi networks and share the connection details (SSID, passphrase etc) only to selected devices.<br />
You can use Mac address filtering, but this requires you to enter each device's MAC address individually.<br />

There is usually no reliable way to identify DHCP clients. Vendor class could have been used if it was actually correctly implemented but this is not the case...

how can we identify mobile device dhcp requests ? We want to assign them a different set of ip addresses then the rest of the network .<br />
<br />
We have been playing around with vendor classes but we can't find vendor class identification for devices like android and apple .

Identify mobile device dhcp requests

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks and an extension of the Bootstrap Protocol. DHCP allows for computers to be configured automatically to communicate with each other over an IP network without the need for manual setup by a network administrator. The implementation of DHCP relies on a DHCP server to hand out network configuration information to DHCP-capable clients that request an IP address (and other information required or useful in communicating with other devices on an IP network). In addition to an IP address, common configuration information served over DHCP includes a default gateway, subnet mask and DNS sever(s).

DHCP

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
