    In the service rules for mac, do you have a line called:

     

    Connection  | Client-Mac-Address | EQUALS | %{Radius:IETF:User-Name}

     

    This should prevent dot1x clients to hit the mac-auth rule, you can then place the mac rule above dot1x.

     

    Or you can create a more specific condition in the dot1x service to exclude mac connections.

    In addition to the suggestion made by Klaring , you may also need to re-arrange the services so that the mac auth service is hit prior to the 802.1X service

    I see you build a mac rule for wireless, see line 2.

     

    Please change that to wired, or remove wireless
