How to use RadMaskedTextBox with MAC address input?

[Will Huang]

I have a requirement that need to let user input MAC address.  There is Hex-format input.  For example:

00-14-EB-AC-15-10

How can I do this with RadMaskedTextBox?

Hi Will,

I have found another forum which discusses similar scenario and suggested to use RadTextBox instead of RadMaskedTextBox. Checkout the link below.
Using MaskedTextBox for MAC address

You can also refer to the link for more details about Limiting Allowable Values in RadTextBox.

Thanks,

Hello,

Apart from using regular expressions, one can also use an enumerated mask in which all allowed characters are listed:

<telerik:RadMaskedTextBox
    ID="RadMaskedTextBox1"
    runat="server"
    Mask="@@-@@-@@-@@-@@-@@" />

Where @ should be replaced by

<0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|A|B|C|D|E|F>

(I used @ for simplicity here, otherwise the mask becomes rather long)
