SSID MAC Authentication in FortiAP 2211B

[technologist36]

Hi,

I am trying to limit access to a particular WiFi SSID using MAC authentication but simply couldn't find this traditional capability that exists in most wireless vendors. How come Fortinet missed this traditional security feature?

Please advise.

Fortinet didn't miss it - it is a basic feature and it is available in FortiOS.

However, while on higher-end FortiGate units this configuration option is available in the GUI, on lower-end ones you could configure MAC address restrictions in the CLI only. Check FortiOS CLI reference for FortiOS of your particular version - system dhcp server section.
