RBE: ignoring MAC address?

When RBE is configured on an ATM interface. Design guide tells me that incoming packets are directly forwarded to the IP routing process.
We've configured RBE on a ATM Interface and see every incoming IP packet beeing processed by the IP routing - even if the packet has not a MAC of this RBE interface.
So this RBE interface seems to be in promiscuous mode and processes packets for other IP host as well.
Is it correct that IRB makes a MAC filtering and RBE does not?

Hi,
I never tried what you say, but I can perfectly believe that there is no check on received mac w/ RBE. This way there is less code to execute, and less chances that a misbehaving CPE won't work and cause calls to ISP's customer service.

  • WRT160N V3 router ignores MAC address Access Restrictions, Filtering policies

    I have added a list of 2 MAC addresses in the Access Restrictions for the access policy #1 and enabled it with Allow policy.  But one of my PC's MAC address which is not on the list of access policy #1 still can access the internet and ping websites.  I tried to add a Deny policy in 2nd policy for this PC MAC address and then it can not ping websites anymore.
    The problem is why my PC with a MAC address not on the list of Allow Policy #1 can access the internet? It seems the router Access Restrictions don't work well.

    I've already added Deny rule (blocking all LAN IPs) to all computers accessing my network in Access Restrictions Policy #1 but I leave one PC left to access the router web configuration.
    Then in Acess Restrictions Policy #2, I added an Allow rule to one of my PC's MAC addresses (and its IP too) but the PC can not access internet and ping websites. It looks like the allow rule in policy #2 doesn't overwrite the Deny rule in Policy #1.

  • Same SSID different MAC address

    Ok... This is the best place for me to post this I think...
    I am sharing an internet connection and am relatively close to the router (linksys) but because of the materials my building is constructed with I get a **** poor connection. So, there is a closer range extender that I can connect to, the range extender is also a linksys range extender, and I have no problems when I connect to it. The only problem is actually getting connected to it in the first place. My computer will automatically connect to the router rather than the base station. They both have the same SSID, and obviously different MAC addresses. Is there a way to force my computer to only connect to the range extender and ignore the signal from the router?

    I have no problems with the range extender itself. It works great. The problem is that my airport card cannot tell the difference between the range extender and the router. Sometimes it will connect to the router, and sometimes to the range extender. I want to force it to connect to a specific MAC address rather than using only the SSID. Is there a way to do this?

  • Arp aging time on router and mac address aging time on switches set close t

  • Telstra Gateway max - mac address filtering no longer available

    My router received firmware update 2 days ago.
    I cannot see anywhere in the config where i can apply mac address filtering.
    This is a key security feature that i used and was available in the previous firmware.
    Why was it removed and how can i get it back

    MPCSM After seeing that this update has apparently failed to fix DHCP reservations, which was reported months ago, and has also now removed the Wireless Card Access List functionality (MAC filtering) I'm very glad I chose some time ago to bridge my C6300BD and put a decent router behind it. It is always extremely risky to remove features in either software or firmware that is in use by clients, because there might  be some who are using that feature. When it is an important security feature like MAC filtering, there would almost certainly be clients who depend on it. Telstra appears to have completely ignored this.
     The only published detail I could find about what this update was intended to do made no mention that it would remove MAC filtering, and for those who were using this function, and now can't, it is probably sufficient grounds to request and be given a refund.        

  • Multipe mac addresses entries for the same port (FE)-Switch 3560

    Dear All,
    I have a problem with a host whitch is connected to 11 port of my cisco 3560. from time to time the, the connection is lost with the host and after some troubleshooting i see two entries of mac-address table for the port 11.
    I'm asking if someone has an idee how to explain this issue and how to see if this port is participing to SPT or...
    I see also somme error of collision :

    i have two routers in the same switch: my wan router + un other router used to conneced some separated hosts to internet.
    If i use statif addressing for the second subnet (2 hosts + internet router), is there any risk for collision or broadcast domains or errors ?
    is the second router distrub my LAN or WAN ?
    Manay thanks for your help and support.
    Best regards,

    Hello,
    For the first part of the question, I guess somebody might be connecting a hub to that port. If the hub is not negotiating the speed/duplex with the 3560 switch, then that port will go to half-duplex mode and you will see collisions on the port. That might also explain why you are seeing multiple MAC addresses on that port. Please check the port to see if the hub is connected and remove it. You can use features like port-security to ensure only one MAC address is registered on that port and people are not connecting hubs/dumb switches on that port.
    For the second issue, you can certainly use static IP addresses as long as they are not overlapping with other subnets in your network. If they are overlapping, you do need to configure NAT on the router so that they are not affecting rest of the network.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    NT

  • Wlan0 perpetually not associated despite manually setting mac address

    Wireless was working fine until a little while ago...
    Now when I use (as root)  iwconfig to set the ap's essid and mac address, the essid sets just fine, but every time the AP says not-associated where it should have the mac address I just told it to use.  What could be going wrong?  Why am I being ignored by my wireless interface?
    A newly arisen problem, and a very frustrating one. 
    Maybe I'm missing something here.

  • How to make mac address gmail contacts overwrite the ones on my HTC Android phone - I don't want to sync - that makes the phone scramble and overwrite my computer.  I want to remove or correctly overwrite the phone information as I have done with iPad.

    Please help - I am beginning to hate google, my android and gmail.  I have just wasted about 5 hours in a futile attempt to try and get my current Mac contacts list on my computer updated to my phone. I'm not that computer literate but I have looked up about google phone accounts, vCards, backing up contact lists, what SD on phones are, and God know what else.  I have searched the internet and tried all sorts of things and I still have a mac with a now correct contact list (after the iPad contacts scrambled it and I spent ages manually correcting them all) and a phone with an outdated contact list.  If you try and sync them the phone wants to overwrite the computer one just like the iPad did (would it be so **** hard to give you a choice on the phone as to which overwrites which!).  After all the  advice on the internet failed, I got the bright idea to completely delete all the ones on the phone and if it was empty of contacts the computer one could be exported to it.  Not as simple as it sounds.  First I backed up (I think) my computer contacts list. Numerous futile attempts to go through the phone options to globally delete all contacts did not work - they gave a warning message and you got to choose whether to continue or not, I did, and it looked like it might be working as it changed to zero data on the phone, but then they all popped back up again from God knows where from, but without their little added bits like pictures of the people.  So, I tried un- syncing the darn phone from  google and then deleting them globally.  That didn't work either.  I tried deleting them  all again and again and google would crash and not let me do it. It is absolutely ridiculous that this is so damned difficult to do (especially if you are not computer savvy) and that you cannot choose which device overwrites which when syncing. I gave up and ticked sync with Google again (not that it appears to do anything to the phone contact list at all).  So after 5 hours I am back to where I started from, with a phone showing all the same  incorrect contacts (but the pictures are back), which wants to overwrite the computer if I try any sort of sync, and no way to fix them except go into each one manually and try and do it - and how long would that take (and I've already wasted hours and hours fixing scrambled contact lists!).  I think I will do a print out of the computer contact list and just carry it around with me like an address book - so much bloody simpler.  So now I have a headache, am fighting an overwhelming urge to hurl the phone at the wall,  hoping for a heat wave to evaporate icloud things and am wishing I had bought an iPhone instead of the stupid HTC Android.  Can any one offer me any suggestions on how to get rid of the contacts on my phone and replace them with the ones in my mac address list - hopefully after that  they can sync to their hearts content and not stuff everything up again (which was why I unsynced google a while back - because the phone's list kept making stuff ups and scrambling and duplicating my computer contacts list).  Am I the only one on the planet having this problem or is there someone else out there who has had it and solved it.

    Without "pretending" to be yourself on the other phone (change settings) there's nothing else you can do.
    iOS devices are meant to be single user and can't view iCloud.com the same way a Mac or PC can do.
    You need to find a desktop or laptop machine (Mac or PC) to log in at iCloud.

  • I want to reserve a static IP address on my Airport extreme.  What is the difference between reserving by MAC Address and DHCP Client ID?

    I want to understand the differences in the way you can reserve a static address for a device on the network.  I had previously set the device itself to an address and then reserved it with DHCP Client ID, which I thought was just the devices static addresss.  I'm not sure if this was in fact correct or just happend to work.  I know what a MAC address is, but I'm not really sure what the DHCP Client ID is. So it would be great if someone could clarify it, and the difference between reserving address by MAC Address or DHCP Client ID.

    A MAC address is a unique identification consisting of letters and numbers in a form that looks like this:
    xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
    Every network device has a MAC address, which can be found on a label on the bottom or back of the device. Apple calls this the Ethernet ID.
    A DHCP Client ID is an optional name that you can assign to a device. For example, on your Mac....
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Network
    Click on Ethernet
    Click Advanced at the lower right
    You may be able to edit the DHCP Client  ID here....for example.....you could enter MJ500's MacBook in the space provided. That would be the Client ID of your Mac.

  • I have two .mac addresses; how does this work in iCloud?

    This is not about consolidating Apple ID's... I think.
    When I got my first .mac address, I thought I picked a good one at the time. Later on, due to the peculiar spelling, I opted for an additonal (paid) address which I use every day. Now the first one (which is an Apple ID) contains my calendars, contacts, etc. I never use the email portion of it, again because of challenging spelling. The second .mac address (also an Apple ID) is an email only account. This is the email account I use daily.
    When I make the transition to iCloud, I intend to keep my original AppleID (from the pre-.mac days) as my iTunes store ID.
    My question is, what happens with my two other accounts?
    .mac #1 with the contacts and such would move to iCloud and sync everything there as it currently does with MobileMe. Since .mac #2 is an email only account, would I even need to bother moving it to iCloud (if that's even possible), or would I just keep using that as email only using the current mail settings on my iThingys and Mac? Does anyone know if .mac #2 will live on after MobileMe vanishes, or will I loose my daily and coveted .mac email at that time?
    I'm sure Apple has a good reason for not allowing us to just consolidate everything in one place, but I know there are many out there with a similar situation to mine.
    I've spent a good deal of time tonight searching the various threads and can't seem to find an answer to the two .mac email dilemma. My appologies if it's already been discussed.
    To sum up, I have one Apple ID that I use for iTunes and intend to keep as such. I have two .mac addresses which are also Apple ID's; one that syncs with MobileMe and one that is email only. I would like to use iCloud to sync what is currently on MobileMe, AND continue to use the simpler email address that I've been using for years.
    Am I screwed??
    Thanks in advance for your help, and Happy Holidays to all!!

    Migrate the account which contains your calendars, contacts etc. first, at http://me.com/move and set it up on your Mac and devices.
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
    Now migrate the email-only account in the same way. On a Mac you can add it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars - it won't sync anything but will be added to the accounts in Mail where you can then use the email in the normal way.
    I don't know what the equivalent process on an iOS device is; very likely you need to add it as an account in the Mail app.

  • How do I add my phone's Wi-Fi Mac address to my home server so that I can use my home Wi-Fi with my phone?

    Hello. I am using an Android cell phone and, though the phone sees my home server name and accepts my password, it won't connect. I understand that I may have to add my phone's Wi-Fi Mac address to my home server in order for it to allow my phone access, but I have no idea how I might do that. Could someone help me with this? Thank you.

    You need to log out of iMessage and Facetime, make sure your number is correct in Settings/General/About, then log back in again to send a new activation request.

  • I need to change the MAC Address for Airport on MacBook

    I have a specific need to change my son's Airport MAC address as his school requires the use of USB network cards that aren't compatible with MACs. These cards are needed because the school's router uses MAC address filtering.
    Before we upgraded his Mac to Snow Leopard, we were able to change the MAC address to the MAC address of the useless dongal the school supplied. We basically created an AppleScript program that ran the "sudo ifconfig en1 ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" and all was good.
    This command no longer works for changing the MAC address. We tried it as root user as well and by typing it into the terminal window as root. After running the command, we can run "ifconfig en1" and it does display the new mac address but when we turn the airport on and try to connect, it just hangs and won't connect.
    Our other non-Snow Leopard still works fine after running the commands so I'm guessing Apple disabled this functionality. It's hardly a security issue by being able to change your mac addres.
    Is there a new way to accomplish this? I've searched everywhere.
    Thanks!

    Would an easier solution be to provide the school's IT admin with your mac address and have it added? If they can add a block of mac addresses for the usb dongles, they can add more for machines that cannot use the dongle.
    Also: "It's hardly a security issue by being able to change your mac address."
    While it may not be a security issue for your machine, it is a security for the school network who is using mac address filtering as hopefully only one part of their wireless security.
    That being said, have you read this?

    Hotel networks require authentication via webpage, there is no browser on Apple TV so it won't be possible to connect this way. The only way will be to give the mac address, it would be for connecting to the Apple TV. No info will be accessed.

  • Do I need to add Base Station MAC address to list?

    Hi, If I choose to use MAC address filtering on my Airport Extreme Time Capsule, do I need to add the wireless MAC address of the Base Station to the list of allowed MAC addresses???  I'd feel real bad if I set up a list, didn't include the base station's MAC address and then could never get in to the network again because I, in effect, locked myself out???  I doubt that address needs to be included but I would like some feedback on that.
    Second, does the one MAC address filter list apply to the Guest Network as well if I should choose to turn it on???  If that was the case, I would just turn off MAC address filtering why guests were present.
    thanks..  bob

    If I choose to use MAC address filtering on my Airport Extreme Time Capsule, do I need to add the wireless MAC address of the Base Station to the list of allowed MAC addresses???
    No. Timed Access would be for wireless devices....computers, mobile devices, printer, etc., that are connecting to the Time Capsule. The Time Capsule does not connect to itself in this regard.
    I'd feel real bad if I set up a list, didn't include the base station's MAC address and then could never get in to the network again because I, in effect, locked myself out???
    Sometimes, users lock themselves out by mistake by entering incorrect times for devices to connect, and they often forget that they can connect to the base station using an Ethernet connection and get back in that way.....since Timed Access only applies to devices that connect using wireless.
    does the one MAC address filter list apply to the Guest Network as well if I should choose to turn it on???
    Yes
