My network was pounded over the past 2 weeks by students running Kazaa. I pulled the students out of class and put them on probation. How can I prevent this going forward (using technology)? I would prefer not having to run a packet sniffer 24/7 to watch for students downloading garbage.
FYI, Kazaa switches IP addresses of its login servers on a continual basis, so it is difficult to have the app blocked on a regular basis. Additionally, each download uses a different port, so I can’t filter out the port either.
