determining device information of the first IoT device based on the monitored network communication;
assigning the first IoT device to reconfigure from having the first IP address to having a second IP address of a first subnet of a plurality of subnets in the network based on the device information;
determining that the first IoT device has not reconfigured from having the first IP address to having the second IP address in response to being assigned to the first subnet; and
in response to determining that the first IoT device has not reconfigured from the first IP address to the second IP address in response to being assigned to the first subnet, adding a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the first IoT device to a deny list of a host access point.
