Authorization by IP and MAC address

General Information

The IP and MAC authorization rules also create a similar binding in the SafeUTM DHCP server. However, if the same IP and MAC addresses will be used in the enabled rules of the DHCP server, then the DHCP server rules will be executed first.

To configure IP and MAC authorization, you must:

  1. In section Authorization -> IP and MAC authorization click Add.
  2. Create an IP and MAC authorization binding rule:
