Restrict Access to DHCP Server Requests on AP

Restrict Access to DHCP Server Requests on AP

After setting up DHCP Server located on AP.

Is there a way to restrict what MAC OUI can obtain an IP address by applying a MAC filter to DHCP.

We only want APs to obtain an IP address against the specific VLAN, however if someone unplugged an AP and connected themselves they would not be able to obtain an address

There isn't a MAC filter that we would apply to the DHCP server so much as to the SSID. If you're worried about wired connections, I would recommend setting up MAC auth on the switch ports so if someone plugs in an unknown device they will not be able to use that port.
