Mac filtering with encryption

abu.sayeed1 — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 10:17:35 GMT

Hello All,

We have two autonomous AIR-SAP2602I-E-K9 APs. Is it possible to use MAC filtering with WEP or WPA? So devices trying to connect to the APs must use the WEP or WPA key and must be in the allowed MAC list.

Many thanks for your replies.

Thank you very much George.

I was doing it under MAC address authentication and going wrong there and then I read

"A. The Cisco AP does not support local MAC authentication and Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-share Key (WPA-PSK) in the same Service Set Identifier (SSID). When you enable local MAC authentication with WPA-PSK, WPA-PSK does not work. This problem occurs because local MAC authentication removes the WPA-PSK ASCII password line from the configuration." here http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless-mobility/wlan-security/68583-FAQ-Wireless-Security.html

I don't understand this bit from the link you gave, sorry for being thick:

"Step 9 Select Forward All or Block All from the Default Action menu. The filter default action must be the opposite of the action for at least one of the addresses in the filter. For example, if you enter several addresses and you select Block as the action for all of them, you must choose Forward All as the filter default action."

Thanks a lot George, it
