[c-nsp] IP conflict !!! How to avoid this....

[Gangasagar Amula]

Dear All,

In our company, we have used DHCP to give IP to different machines...

And

Some machines have been given IP statically.....which has internet connection..


Now the thing is most of the intelligent people...are changing the ip address of their machines to the one...having internet connection...

Hence a authorised person who needs a net...gets a ip conflict....


How to avoid this....

Or can we identify the port number of the switch if we have the ip address ?
