White-list Policies

  1. Only ACM members can be added to the white-list permanently
  2. Guest access can be given out temporarily for events
  3. Devices must be registered using the users account name

Managing the white-list

Management of the white-list is done using a script called mac_filter

  1. SSH into dvorak.cs.uic.edu/dvorak.acm.cs
  2. Run the mac_filter command as root with sudo ie “sudo mac_filter -opts”
  3. Use the -h flag for instructions
  4. The command will automatically add that user to the white-list, regenerate the list for the DHCP server, and then restart it.

Giving a non Admin white-list permissions

  1. Log onto the ACM Windows Server
  2. Find that users account and move them into the Admins OU located inside the PAID OU
  3. Right click→add to group
  4. Add then to the group ACMDHCPAdmins
  5. They now have access to edit the white-list
