Firewall Gold IP Address Allocations.
I have a large network that is now having to facilitate and enormous amount of devices including IP cameras, IP phones, computers, printers, cell phones, IoT devices and so on. Within the next few weeks we are working on creating new VLANs to deal with IP address allocations as we're now running out of IP's, although we've requested for our personnel to turn off wifi on their devices temporarily when they come to work, that's happening quite enough. Is there a way I can block some devices now from gaining access so I can use the IP addresses for other devices?

At the moment, we don't control IP allocations to devices as a way to block (that doesn't work, because static IP's ...)
Maybe you can send these devices to their own VLAN? (remember the Gold can also do port-based LAN, which is another segment you can use temporarily)
The Firewalla Gold can handle fairly large networks, so you shouldn't worry too much about allocating LAN IP addresses. And if you have the firewalla AP7, it may be even easier if you automatically map SSID to VLAN (or WPA3 to VLAN)
