Hello,

you need a mac address access list and/or port security. Are you running CatOS or Cisco IOS, and what is your switch platform (2900, 3500, etc.) ?

Regards,

Georg

Dear Desai,

Could you find any answer?

I am also looking for the same thing.

If you have got the answer, please share.

Port security will definitely be your easiest way to accomplish this, however, you could also move to doing dot1x authentication on the ports via a radius server. That way it wouldn't be nearly as crucial to have all your MAC addresses available...
