Restricting access on network through MAC filtering?

May 26, 2005 2 Replies

Is there a way in a cisco 2950 to restrict access to the network by creating a list of permitted MAC addresses? Can the same be done on a PIX 506 or 501 to restrict VPN access by MAC address?



Thank you very much,

Yes douglas, You can filter traffic by Mac id based. for that u simply do the following steaps.

config t mac access-list extended permit host xxxx.xxxx.xxxx any permit host xxxx.xxxx.xxxx any

ctrl+z write

config t int fas0/0 or ser0/0 where u want to put it mac access-group in ctrl+z

write

thats all
