I wouldn't advise blocking MAC addresses.... Also seems to be a bit of
admin nightmare.
Why not use an authentication method, i.e. User or Session auth?
Or put in an authenticating proxy and allow that access

John,
Try giving the PCs in question a DHCP reservation on your DHCP server,
then block them by IP address on the FW-1.

It looks like Checkpoint has eliminated the User Forums on there site so
this looks like the new discussion forum.
Anyone have any recommendation for blocking internet access to certain
PC's by the MAC address? Firewall-1 only blocks by IP so I would have
to manually assign addresses to a bunch of machines to do this and that
would be an administrative nightmare.
