Forcing hardware to a specific pool

I am looking at adding a dynamic pool to our current infrastructure, to support our meeting rooms. I am looking for a way to force these machines, regardless of the user, to connect to a certain pool. The users logging in will likely have entitlement to other pools, but if coming from this particular hardware, I would like them to only see the one. Is this at all possible?

Maybe you could create some kind of script that executes locally and directs users to the specific pool pending the discovery of the particular type of hardware.   You could try to use the View client tools to accomplish this.

We setup our Zero Clients using the Teradici Management Console. We made groups in the Console so that when a user logs into a Zero Client with a mac address that is in that group, automatically grabs a virtual machine in the Pool it's assigned to.
