MikroTik

Hi all!

Please, I will want to grant access to some services using a list of MAC addresses. When someone is to be added I just get her/his MAC and add it to the list. How do I implement this?

Diagrams or step-by-step instruction will be great! Thanks in advance

Unfortunately there isn't the address-list equivalent for mac-address. It only exists by IP. You could make a chain called "mac-allow" and add them all as rules and then jump to it from another chain.... but it is awkward and cumbersome. There really isn't a good way to do it.

Just an idea: can one create a list of IP that can only be taken by a list of MAC, using the dhcp server. Then one can now use that IP pool as what to grant access to.

This is just an idea I am bringing from my networking experience but I don't know how to do that with mikrotik.

And irrespective of the above, I am still hoping for a cleaner solution

Yeah.. But you could spoof that. If you did it with static arp it might work.
