One way to prevent this is to setup VLAN’s.

thnx 4 ur reply
but what do mean with VLAN’s.?
This should help you get started.

A VLAN is a logical grouping that allows end users to communicate as if they were physically connected to a single isolated LAN, independent of the physical configuration of the network. VLAN support adds a new dimension of security and cost savings permitting the sharing of a physical network while logically maintaining separation among unrelated users.
In short. You could setup each customer on there own VLAN. This is like putting each customer on there very own physical network, thus preventing a MAC scanner from working.

that means if i have 40 user then i have to create 40 VLAN’s ? each vlan with a unique subnet ? which is doesnt connect only with one client ? what about dhcp ? should i only using static IP at the client side ?
