Netgear GSM7224v2 - 24-Port Layer 2 Managed Gigabit Switch Quick Setup Guide
Configuring MAC ACLs
Version 1.0
Configuring MAC Access Control Lists (ACLs)
This document describes how to set up MAC ACLs. In this example we will use MAC ACLs to
restrict access to ports on a switch based on the MAC address of connected clients (i.e. the
source MAC address of a packet received at a port on the switch).
Specifically, our example will demonstrate how to restrict access to a set of VoIP telephones and
a single management PC. Other devices will not be allowed access ensuring that bandwidth is
preserved for the VoIP phones.
This example uses a Netgear ProSafe FSM7328PS layer 3 managed switch.
