MAC based VLAN from OUI or range of addresses
I would like to create a MAC based VLAN based on a specific OUI. It looks like the MAC VLAN settings are single entry and you can only use OUI entries in the VoIP VLAN section. Is there any way to enter a MAC range in the VLAN section?
This is for an enviroment that does device manfacturing and all of their units have a specific OUI on them. These devices mostly live in the manufacturing area but they have RnD and Engineering enviroemnts as well and I want to make sure that anywhere they plug these in the traffic ends up on the correct VLAN. I can't use the AutoVOIP since it already in use by the voip system in the enviroment and entering in 16 million addresses doesn't seem realistic.

Re: MAC based VLAN from OUI or range of addresses
Hi z-enzo,
Welcome to our community! 🙂
I don't think it is possible to use the OUI of the device for MAC-Based VLAN. We all know that different devices have their own unique MAC address that is why MAC-based VLAN is only applicable to limited devices. It can only accommodate up to 256 entries for MAC-Based VLAN.

Re: MAC based VLAN from OUI or range of addresses
That's what I figured but wasn't sure if you could specifiy a range or something like you can do with other vendors that don't have the autovoip feature. I am guessing netgear dropped this in favor of autovoip so people wouldn't have to build all the rules for voice vlans manually like one would in cisco but with a trade off of one OUI table or something.
