Cisco Catalyst 3750G port-security

[veracious]

I am trying to do some mac address filtering to only allow specified mac's to have access. I have about 35 mac addresses that I want to add to the port-security, and let all 35 macs have access to any of the 32 ports on the switch (3750g). My question is there an easier way to do besides adding each mac address individually to all 32 ports, because that would be rather time consuming.

Well I tried adding a single mac address to all 32 ports and found out that you can't grant a mac access to more than one port. Is there another approach I can take to only allow 35 mac addresses to any of the 32 ports?

look into 802.1x port-based authentication

You can add the MAC addresses into AD (for example) and then configure the switch to authorise against your directory before granting access.
