Dumb question,we have (3) Cisco 1240AG access points. We've placed them on the east,center, and west side of the floor. I'm curious how I can get all 2 (east and west) to share the center AP local Mac. address list. We are already using EAP but wanted to put in place local Mac Authentication. I'm curious if I was to set the center AP as a Root Bridge mode would that solve the problem. Didn't want to create a Mac Authentication Server as of yet. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
 
Are you looking to Auth the AP's or the WLAN clients? I have never come across this approach. However, you can use MAC Auth with your WLAN clients. If these are autonomous AP's you can add your client mac's to an ACL, if they are Lightweight, you can do the same on the WLC (Wireless LAN Controller). Hope this helps.

Rgds,

John
