Not realy, the thing with settign MAC restrictions, is telling the users only to use certain MAC addresses, yet all the data send across the net isn't encrypted, meaning anybody who knows anything about spoofing MAC addresses, can get access to your net, they just have to figure out a MAC, which is allowed, after that they can sniff on every data you send, and without any further work, know exactly what you're doing, that beeing sending your ssh-key or webbank login info..
