MAC filter list & MAC address clone
« on: June 04, 2009, 01:59:51 pm »
Is it feasible to add a MAC filter list to ebox. I know of some routers that have this capablility and some distros have this as well. It should be fairly simple to implement.

And related to my previous post, how about the option of cloning a MAC address for an external interface? I was doing some googling and it looks like I have to clone a MAC address manually in the interfaces file under "/etc/network/interfaces". Does anyone know if this file is touched or updated when a change has been made to ebox?

+1 for both.

MAC cloning would be useful.

An another MAC related feature would be for DHCP server an "Deny unknown clients" option :).

Thanks.

I would like to know, where is the dhcp server script (i can edit to be with "Deny unknown clients" option for me), and where is an file, what is executed at every boot (i want to put the ifconfig eth0 hw ether "macadress" command in it).

Thanks again.
