Hi everyone,
I am new to NAP and Windows 2008 security options.

I have a small network of 20 PCs all joined to a Windows 2008 domain.

Every so often, some clients visit our offices and connect via wireless to browse the Internet. At the moment, they get an IP from our Domain range and can view the domain shares (those visible to everyone like NetLogon).

I would like to give out IPs from another range if the Laptop is not joined with the domain.

Can this be done with NAP in Windows 2008?

Kindly help.

Thanks in advance
 
You could probably accomplish this with NAP and a good deal of work. See this step by step guide. However, most decent wireless access points these days have the option for multiple SSIDs and can configure a dhcp scope for the individual SSID. It would probably be more cost effective to purchase one of these if yours doesn't already support it, unless you work someplace where your man-hours are not counted for project expense. Then you can hide or configure different security on the SSID for your domain users and have different security on the public SSID. For extra credit, configure VLANing to further segment public traffic.
