Hi, hoping someone might have some advice.

I am trying to setup MAC Address filtering on a switch to limit which devices can connect.

There are two VLANs, internal network and then guest WiFi.

3 access points in use.

Would like several mobile devices to only access WiFi and several servers or workstations to allow access on internal network.

Thanks

Mike

    Hi @mkeats ,

    Based on your description, it seems you want clients to have Internet access only, without the ability to connect to the LAN or other wireless clients.

    You can achieve this by configuring a Guest network in the SSID settings. Please refer to this article for detailed information and configuration steps.

    Hi, thanks for the reply.

    What I was thinking was not only wireless clients but also wired? So if someone rocked up with a personal laptop for instance and plugged in to a port on the switch they wouldn't get access to the internal network?
