Hello!
For the advanced users, this job is done easily with those sets of two lines.
MAC Filtering:
/ip firewall filter add chain=forward src-mac-address=aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff action=drop
IP Filtering:
/ip firewall filter add chain=forward src-address=aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd action=drop
For the rest, here is how you can do the same, using the Winbox, the Mikrotik GUI.
- From the Winbox menu, select IP->Firewall
- On the “Firewall” window, select the “+” sign (add).
- On the “Firewall Rule” window, select the tab “General” and set the “chain” to “forward”.
- IF you want to block IP, add it to “Scr. Address” field.
- IF you want to block MAC, go to “Advanced” tab and add the MAC to the “Scr. MAC Address” field.
- Then, on the “Action” tab, set the “Action” to “drop”.
- Finally, click “Apply” to save the new rule.
TIP: try to comment your rules in order to make it easier for you later, when you will review the filters and you will have to search what filter does what. 😉
