Hi Dayo, you have to recompile squid for this with the additional configure option '--enable-arp-acl'. There are some other constraints, read through the documention (for example the config file). <snip from config file version 3.0.STABLE15> # acl aclname arp mac-address ... (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx notation) # # The arp ACL requires the special configure option --enable-arp-acl. # # Furthermore, the ARP ACL code is not portable to all operating systems. # # It works on Linux, Solaris, Windows, FreeBSD, and some other *BSD variants. # # # # NOTE: Squid can only determine the MAC address for clients that are on # # the same subnet. If the client is on a different subnet, then Squid cannot # # find out its MAC address. </snip> Best regards, Martin Dayo Adewunmi <contactdayo@xxxxxxxxx> 24.06.2009 11:52 Bitte antworten an contactdayo@xxxxxxxxx An squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Kopie Thema Banning MAC addresses in squid3 Hi all, I'm trying to block MAC address with this ACL: acl banned_MAC arp 00:1a:73:ff:fa:9a http_access deny banned_MAC ...and restarting squid3 gives me this error: 2009/06/24 10:34:52| Reconfiguring Squid Cache (version 3.0.STABLE1)... 2009/06/24 10:34:52| FD 12 Closing HTTP connection 2009/06/24 10:34:52| FD 15 Closing ICP connection 2009/06/24 10:34:52| aclParseAclLine: Invalid ACL type 'arp' Is there something else that needs to be included for 'arp' to become a valid ACL type?
