How to disable mac address in 9800 WLC

[Noovi]

Hi Guys,

As we know, there is option in Cisco 5520 WLC to mannualy disable any Mac addresses of user to deny network access to him.

Is there any disable mac address option in Cisco 9800 WLC?

And Randomize MAC Address is making this obsolete.

The command is: 

conf t
 wireless exclusionlist <MAC ADDRESS> [description <32 characters>]
end

[Noovi]

is there any option through GUI?

It can be done if management wants to be pedantic.  ISE can be configured to not allow Randomized MAC address, however, by doing so you will find yourself to be the most unpopular person.

We have some users getting on XVPN to stream content and/or esports etc on their android and iphones - looking for a way to block that - I don't mind being unpopular with those that violate the Acceptable Use Policy
