Re: Use firewall-cmd to filter by MAC address?

[Michael Hannon <jmhannon.ucdavis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Anthony.  Nice idea.  I did find a bug report about this (can't find the number at the moment) that indicates somebody has been assigned to enable this feature in firewall-cmd.

I believe the firewalld devs are working on this, but for now, you can
manually enter something like the following in /etc/firewalld/direct.xml.  Of
course, you'll need to unwrap the lines and choose the right chain for your
system (it might not be IN_internal_allow).  I use something like this for my
HDHomeRun tuners.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<direct>
  <passthrough ipv="ipv4">-t filter -A IN_internal_allow -m mac --mac-source \
AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF -j ACCEPT</passthrough>
  <passthrough ipv="ipv6">-t filter -A IN_internal_allow -m mac --mac-source \
AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF -j ACCEPT</passthrough>
</direct>

Merry Christmas!
