Abstract

Policy enforcement is disclosed. A first identity and second notification are respectively received from a network device at different first and second times. In response to the receipt of the second identity notification, a determination is made that an IP address associated with the network advice has changed from a first IP address to a second IP address. A mapping between an identifier associated with the device and the first IP address is updated to a mapping between the identifier and the second IP address. A policy is updated based on the updated mapping.
