Just a question, Is the machines that you want to block on the same network segment as the ASA? If not it won't work. (Not sure you can do it on an ASA) but you can do it from a Cisco switch. You may be able to block it at the router that is attached to the same segment. <br />

Actually no. &nbsp;They are on a separate VLAN. &nbsp;I know I can do a mac-address-table static MAC Vlan # drop on a switch. &nbsp;However I don't have a cisco switch before the ASA I can do this on.

Guess Reservation is the way I'm gonna have to do it. &nbsp;I haven't worked with access-lists before. &nbsp;Can you point to some place I can better understand them, or let me know what commands I will need to setup?<br />
<br />
Thanks

I have an Cisco ASA 5510 firewall and I'd like to setup a rule to block Internet access to several specific machines on the network. &nbsp;How can I do this using their MAC address?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.

Block Access to Internet via mac?

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

Networking Hardware-Other

Network Management involves issues that are independent of specific hardware or software, including email policies, upgrade planning, backup scheduling and working with managed service providers for Desktop-As-A-Service (DaaS), Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) and the like through the use of tools, coupled with manufacturer standards, best practice guidelines, policies and procedures plus all other relevant documentation. Network management also includes monitoring, alerting and reporting, management reporting, planning for device or service updates, the backup of configurations, the setting of key performance indicators and measures (KPIs/KPMs), associated service level agreements and problem records as part of the IT Service Management (ITSM) framework.
