Abstract:
Associating hosts with subscriber and service based requirements is disclosed. An identifier is extracted from a DHCP or other network address lease communication associated with a subscriber host. The identifier is used to associate the subscriber host with a requirement that is subscriber based, service based, or both subscriber and service based. The subscriber host is included in a set of one or more subscriber hosts associated with the subscriber, the service, or both, as applicable to the requirement, and the requirement is required to be enforced collectively to the one or more subscriber hosts comprising the set.
