Is there a way to block MAC addresses with the WISP Switch?

No, sorry.
We could do it but why?

So that a rogue user can be blocked before they hit one of our routers. Very common on most managed switches. This is a feature that will make or break me buying more of the Netonix product.

There are better ways to do this then a MAC access list as MAC list access control is only good on flat network segments and becomes useless beyond a single sub-net range.

Go to the Device/Access Control and you can specify allowed IP ranges.

There is also a Tar Pit on our switches which means people can not Brute Force Crack them.

Isn't that a list that allows access to the console of the switch? I really need to be able to control traffic on a MAC Level.

The switch core is capable of this but it is not on our immediate road map of features.

This is not to say we may not consider implementing it at a later time.
