Cannot get MAC ACL to work
Have a stack of 5, and trying to lock down 1 port to 1 MAC address. Followed the documentation and all that stuff. I can get it to block all traffic, but that's about it. The ACL rules seem weird to me. Even though I have tried pretty much every combination, this makes the most sense to me:
ACL based on source MAC
Action - permit - match every (false) - destination MAC (MAC of the allowed device) - MAC Mask (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF)
Direction - Inbound
Bind to the appropriate port
I have also tried adding a deny - match every (true) rule after the permit rule. Tried changing source/destination, etc. I spent about 3 hours banging on it and could never get it to work properly.
