Issue/Bug - User MAC Binding option is unable to bind MAC Address in XG Firewall

MurtazaBadshah

We try in two different model  XG450 (SFOS 15.01.0 MR-1.1) and XG 85 series , result are same.

I create a user with single simultaneous Login and bind with mac address of device A. Now i am trying with device B with same user i am able to login and browse.

Its a big bug in current version , i want sophos developer team to work on it and come up with a solution in next version.

    Hi Murtaza,

    User-Mac binding can only be applied with Client based authentication mechanisms i.e. Linux, Windowsand Client Based SSO. This is because Sophos Firewall receives MAC Addresses through Clients. Unfortunately, our client authentication is unable to support MAC address binding and this is taken into consideration in NPM-94. Our developer team is already working on the fix.

    Thanks for the patience.

    Hi;

    I've the same problem with MAC binding too. I can bind devices (like PCs) by IP but what about wifi connectivity or other OS?

    Is there any solution?
