Solution for MAC filtering and Authentication

Asked By william butler 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/01/2011

Is there any hardware-routing solution out there that permits for the MAC filtering to remain running, and at the same time gives way for authentication by having a simple dialog box where a user could enter his/her username and password before getting an access to the network that could be allowed?

Solution for MAC filtering and Authentication

Hello William Butler,

In case you need to make access to the network you are using restricted access so that for some one to access the services of the network they should first be authenticated by entering a username and password, then you can set those credentials from the router that you are using.

You can choose either to create a group password for all the users of that network to avoid people outside the network from tapping from it, or you could also choose to assign each user on the network an individual password, and this you do by setting the configurations from the router.

Hope this helps.
