A mapping system, under administrative control of a Wide Area Network (WAN) controller, can track each host, authorized to access a plurality of Local Area Networks (LANs), in one or more mapping databases including a first network address representing an identifier and a second network addressing representing a locator for each host. The mapping system can receive a request for resolution of a first identifier of a host not presently connected to the network. The mapping system can determine the mapping databases exclude a mapping for the first identifier. The mapping system can update the mapping databases with a first mapping including the first identifier and a first locator corresponding to a honeypot network device. The mapping system can transmit, to one or more LANs of the plurality of LANs, routing information to route traffic destined for the first identifier to the honeypot network device.
