Locking a device to a specific port

[davidj_cogliane]

We have a customer who wants to lock specific MAC addresses to specific ports as a form of location tracking.
They want 10:20:30:40:50:ab to only be able to connect to ABC MDF port 1:1.
Is there a way to accomplish this in XOS on X460s and X440s?

Does any vendor support something like this? Not looking to sell another product, but hoping I can say the desired behavior is not an option on any vendors equipment.

As I currently understand it MAC locking does not work that way. I believe it works more like the example provided below.
10:20:30:40:50:ab is the only MAC allowed on ABC MDF port 1:1

10:20:30:40:50:ab is still able to connect to ABC IDF-1 port 2:2

Olaf,

This is the way I thought it worked.

Our customer is not concerned about what is on that port, but rather where a certain MAC is located.

They want 10:20:30:40:50:ab to only be able to connect to ABC MDF port 1:1.
Is there a way to accomplish this in XOS on X460s and X440s?

I read your reply as saying "only 10:20:30:40:50:ab can connect on ABC MDF port 1:1, but it would still be able to connect on AAB IDF port 2:2 as well"
I'm I reading your reply correctly?

This looks like the write answer when combined with the LLDP location advertisement.

Thanks Drew, that makes sense.

I think they would still need something like Redsky to tie all the information together.

David, the documentation is a little misleading. That command has been around since EXOS 11.5 and works on the G1 models too. The newer guides list the new G2 platforms since G1s aren't supported there.

My colleague pointed me to this product as it's certified with our PBX solution.

As far as I unterstand you configure the ELIN on the switch port, the 911 manager has then a table e.g. ELIN#123 = 3rd floor, room#301 and then this info is tx to the 911 call center.
So must of the work is done by the PBX and 911manager.
