Hi Guys,
Is vWLC able to do MAC address Bypass?
I have an WLAN running [WPA2][Auth(802.1X + CCKM)]. I want to join to this WLAN some devices that don't support 802.1X (like ACs, TVs etc). All go to a guest vlan so they don't get access to the corporate network anyway. How I see the MAB is as follows : If the device has a MAC that is whitelisted it doesn't need to pass 802.1x. Is this correct?
I found some cisco instructions for an embaded wlc running MAB but that is a total different case right?

yes correct, it all depends on the order of operation configured on the Radius you using. and all the MAC address entries are in the List it validate and get authenticated.
Radius is key role here.
