Hello all, I'd like your feedback on a problem I have with allowing access through the ipfw firewall via mac addresses.
Andrew has a good point on mac address spoofing. I agree with him on the security concern, but for the situation that I am setting up, that's ok. But I really need to open the firewall via mac address. Let me detail my setup: dc0 is the interface to the Internet vr0 is the interface to the managed network I tried to read up on ipfw rules on mac, and I got something like this: allow ip from any to any MAC any 00:90:d1:00:80:00/33 It does not work of course, but ipfw accepted the command. Basically I need the client with the mac address to be able to go pass the firewall in totality. Can anyone enlighten me on the correct format? Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
