Hi,
I am trying to use MAC-based authentication for wireless users, but I cannot find an internal server  to add MAC address of user devices. 

Is there any option same as MPSK Local for MAC authentication that can be used on for WLANs (on Access Points)? And if this is not possible, is there any way to add them on a controller (A7005)? I've created a MAC authentication profile on the controller (Gateways->Security->L2 Authentication), but I don't know  where to add MAC addresses.

Have you added the macs here? MAC address for username and for password.

Hi, thank you for your reply.
I am using AOS10. And regarding your question, yes, I have added users using mac addresses as the name and password to MPSK Local, but not to the internal server and   I think AOS10 doesn't have that Internal Server. 

With AOS8 it works, but I need to use AOS10.

Have you tried using cloud-auth as the authentication server? And then configure Cloud-Auth (global level) with the MACs?

I cannot see that Authentication&Policy in the Security section. 
Aruba OS10 is seemly is not as easy to use as earlier architectures!
