How to set the Role by MAC? (was Game Boxes)

[Kurt Huenemann]

Friends, I think I understand the pros/cons of detecting game consoles by explicit MAC address range...I'll let that debate go for now!  But suppose I want to try it out... Currently, for all my ResNet connections, I map entire subnets to the ResNet role, but these game boxes will share the same IP subnets with their PC and Macintosh brethren.  I do that currently on:   CAM > Auth Servers > Mapping Rules     "VLAN 52" --> assign to "ResNet Role"     "VLAN 49" --> assign to "WiFi Role"     etc. If I want to try automatically mapping those console MAC addresses to a new GameBox role -- separate from my regular ResNet role -- where on the CAM do I setup this mapping, i.e.:   "list of MAC wildcards" --> assign to "GameBox Role"   ?? All pointers and clues appreciated!
