Quick note to consider. Yes, there should be a mac limit. Certain vendor
hardware may restrict the way this is done - as in, some vendor kit may
allow one to set a mac limit of 1 (to anything) and some may only permit
static mac, and some may permit both.
WiscNet's remote switch is currently set to static mac, this is because
of a vendor change that prevented the mac limit from working.
Forcing one way or the other may be difficult to achieve, but the limit
should exist in some form.
