Preventing access by residential subscribers using protected (gateway) MAC addresses

The first step is to create a list of MAC addresses to be protected. The second step is to prevent access using these source addresses inside an SHG or a SAP.

The following example displays a partial BSA configuration with some protected MAC addresses on any SAP created inside the SHG.
