Configure the MAC authentication user account format.

• Use one MAC-based user account for each user.

  mac-authentication user-name-format mac-address [ { with-hyphen | without-hyphen } [ lowercase | uppercase ] ]

• Use one shared user account for all users.

  mac-authentication user-name-format fixed [ account name ] [ password { cipher | simple } string ]

By default, the device uses the MAC address of a user as the username and password for MAC authentication. The MAC address is in the hexadecimal notation without hyphens, and letters are in lower case.
