SG300 MAC ACL DHCP Problem !

[egemen1981]

I have created MAC ACL on switch, rules are like below;

Source               Wildcard                            Destination Wildcard

cleintmac            0000000000                                         any

By this way I can control the clients that can connect to my network, but the problem is client can not get address from dhcp server. DHCP server's mac address has also been added like above rule.

What should i do ? this is an urgent situation please help.

Creating a MAC ACL would not be my recommendation for what you are looking to do. I would look into port security, IGMP snooping, or even 802.1x authentication.

Dot 1x authentication would be my choice as I would not have to worry MAC addresses and we could create a guest vlan for users that would not be able to authenticate. But all clients would be able to get an IP address.

I have removed the MAC ACL binding on interface that DHCP server connected, and it is working now.

Thanks for response.
