Question about Mac filtering / interface change

[cfaynta83]

Hi Everyone,

     We have an SSID that currently uses mac filtering on a 4402 WLC. If we change the SSID to use a new VLAN / Interface, do we have to re-enter the mac addresses to get them to apply to the new interface? Or will the controller software be smart enough to apply the mac list to the new vlan?

Thanks,

Craig

It depends whether your MAC Filtering list is set to All Interfaces or whether you have manually selected it.

Look under Security > MAC Filtering, you will see your list of MAC addresses.

If you have selected the specific interface per client then you may need to recreate the list but if you have left it on any interface then you probably won't.

It depends on which interface you selected in wlc.

It depends which interface did you configure it to in the first place.
