Posted: Tue Apr 07, 2020 10:56 Post subject: Actually block a device and still log its activities
I have a device connected to the internal LAN that I block both with the MAC-Address and with the IP having made it static. The problem is that, in my opinion, it does some activity the same since when the LAN and internet performance is connected, it degrades considerably. For please I wanted to know how to log the activity of the device in question to understand if my suspicions are founded and if the blocking of the device is effective. ( )
Thanks.

Device connect by eth on VLAN.
Have you tried unplugging the device to see if your performance changes? Wireshark can also help you gain an understanding if something weird is going on.
If you've blocked it by MAC address, then it's not even going to get an IP address through DHCP, and if they manually set it, those packets will be dropped. _________________ How-to: Encrypt your queries with DNS over TLS
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I tried to unplug it and the performance has improved a lot. Now I had to reconnect it and I always notice some ballerinas. I don't know how to use wireshark but the device doesn't have an operating system where I can install it. If there was a plug for dd-wrt to do this or if you could enable an internal log it would have been better ... Should I install it on my PC and check that IP from them
