Command Usage
Specified addresses are exempt from network access authentication.
This command is different from configuring static addresses with the mac-address-table static
command in that it allows you configure a range of addresses when using a mask, and then to
assign these addresses to one or more ports with the network-access port-mac-filter
command.
Up to 64 filter tables can be defined.
There is no limitation on the number of entries that can entered in a filter table.
Example
Console(config)#network-access mac-filter 1 mac-address 11-22-33-44-55-66
Console(config)#
