MAC Address Filtering
MAC Address Filtering allows you to deny access or allow access to
specific users connecting to the network. Each networking device
has a unique address called a MAC address (a 12 digit hex number).
By inputting the MAC address into the field, you can define whether
that device is allowed into your network
or
not allowed. A MAC
Address may sometimes be referred to as a Physical Address. Most
networking devices have their MAC Address located on a label on
the actual device.
For Windows computers with internal networking adapters, the
MAC Address can be found by viewing the Network Connection
Details of the network adapter. The MAC Address will be listed as
the Physical Address.
Be sure to enter the MAC Address without any symbols. For example, a MAC Address of 78-DD-78-AA-78-BB
would be entered as 78DD78AA78BB.
