    <title>Description</title>

    <para>This file is used to define the MAC addresses and optionally their
    associated IP addresses to be allowed to use the specified interface. The
    feature is enabled by using the <emphasis role="bold">maclist</emphasis>
    option in the <ulink
    url="/manpages/shorewall-interfaces.html">shorewall-interfaces</ulink>(5)
    or <ulink url="/manpages/shorewall-hosts.html">shorewall-hosts</ulink>(5)
    configuration file.</para>

    <para>The columns in the file are as follows (where the column name is
    followed by a different name in parentheses, the different name is used in
    the alternate specification syntax).</para>

          REJECT is also allowed). If specified, the
          <replaceable>log-level</replaceable> causes packets matching the
          rule to be logged at that level.</para>

          need to use the Shorewall format for MAC addresses here. If
          <emphasis role="bold">IP ADDRESSES</emphasis> is supplied then
          <emphasis role="bold">MAC</emphasis> can be supplied as a dash

        <listitem>
          <para>Optional - if specified, both the MAC and IP address must
          match. This column can contain a comma-separated list of host and/or
          subnet addresses. If your kernel and iptables have iprange match
          support then IP address ranges are also allowed. Similarly, if your
          kernel and iptables include ipset support than set names (prefixed
          by "+") are also allowed.</para>
