i also came across where guys are discussing EAP and MAC authentication. i could not conclude, if it is a better way of doing MAC authentication using EAP.
To be clear: you don't. EAP is authentication. MAC "authentication" is just checking if the MAC address is in a known list. Terminology matters. Using the right terminology means that the solution is usually simple. Using the wrong terminology means you're using the wrong design.
How to store MACs in MySQL database. Perhaps, i need to create additional table to store MAC, Honestly, i am not sure how to go about it. Is there any documentation that i may do NOT know of. and i can follow to finish the setup.
If all you want is a "known MAC" list, then just put them into a table in SQL. Then, select MAC addresses from the table at run time. If they're found, continue. If not, reject. Alan DeKok.
