Hi all :

My client is asking can the Cisco ASA 5505 implement MAC ACL in Cisco ASA 5505 which is now running in Router Mode.

Can anybody help to answer this?

I have tried to search the document and also tried the ASDM in the Cisco ASA 5505 but could not see any way to do the ACL by MAC address.

At the same time can also help me find out that by using command line the ASA 5505 able to run MAC ACL in router mode?

Many thanks!

Warmest regards,
