Using the Access
Control List
Under
System Configuration
, click
Access Control List
. The Access Control
List page appears where you can allow or prohibit access to the wireless
network from Ethernet clients.
Follow these steps to build the Access Control List:
1
Under
System Configuration
, click
Access Control List
.
2
On the Access Control List
page, click
Add
.
The Access Control List New ACL page appears.
3
On the New ACL page, enter the MAC address of the client you want to
add to the Access Control List, select the permission type, and click the
Add button to substantially add it.
4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each client.
5
Select the System Default Mode:
■
Allow—allows the client to access the Bridge.
■
Deny—prohibits the client from accessing the Bridge.
CAUTION:
With the Allow option of the
System Default Mode
selected,
the Bridge allows all Ethernet frames except those carrying the
MAC addresses that are specified in the Access Control List and have the
permission type Deny. Similarly, with the Deny option of the
System
Default Mode
selected, the Bridge denies all Ethernet frames except
those carrying the MAC addresses that are specified in the Access Control
List and have the permission type Allow.
Make sure that the MAC address of the computer through which you are
configuring the Bridge is not specified in the Access Control List with the
permission type
Deny
if you want to set the access control type to Allow.
If you want to set the Access Control Type to
Deny
, make sure that the
MAC address of the computer is included in the Access Control List with
the permission type
Allow
. Failure to do so results in access to the Bridge
being blocked; the Bridge will no longer be configurable through the
computer.
