Question

MAC Whitelisting

Probably an easy question and after reading it seems Fortigate can do what I want.

I have a couple secure networks that per our device onboarding process, I want to whitelist those MACs to have connectivity on their respective network (plug in device to wall, get internet. Plug any device not on address list that hits that network/vlan, no network). We have UniFi layer 2/layer3 switching and running into issues with wireless and downstream of allowed MAC lists.

I can give more info if needed, just curious if my assumption on Fortigate functionality is accurate. Happy to read another linked thread if I missed it.

You can refer to this section MAC address-based policies of the Administration guide.
