    Hi, Yesterday I deployed a couple of  IAPs. We have the need to let some industrial wireless equipment (data collection) to be allowed in to the wireless network. As one of the Authentications methods I what to use their MAC Address. I enable the function in the virtual controller but i have not been able to find where do you create list of appoved MAC Addresses.

    Can someone point me to the rigth direction?

    Thanks in advance

    This can be done using the internal DB.  Just enter the MAC as the User and password.

    Thank you Marcus!

    I'll start testing that. Also this group of devices will push data to a specific server on a range of ports (10000-10050), on role base I select custom but only allows to add one port at the time. So do i need to create a rule for each port? or there is a way to insert a range?

    Use the CUSTOM service TCP and input the ports exactly as you wrote it in your message 10000-10050. That will do the trick.
