NOTE
After you configure local MAC Authentication settings, you must click
Apply
to
apply the changes and to save the settings. Changing some settings might cause
the access point to stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless
clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change access
point settings when WLAN traffic is low.
Stations List
This is the local list of clients that are either permitted or
denied access to the network through the access point.
To add a MAC Address to the local Stations List, enter its 48-
bit MAC address into the MAC Address text boxes, then click
Add.
To remove a MAC Address from the Stations List, select its
48-bit MAC address, then click Remove.
The stations in the list will either be allowed or denied access
based on how you set the filter in the previous field.
NOTE:
If the MAC authentication type for the VAP is set to
Local, the access point uses the Stations List to permit or
deny the clients access to the network. If the MAC
authentication type is set to RADIUS, the access point
ignores the MAC addresses configured in this list and uses
the list that is stored on the RADIUS server. The MAC
authentication type is set on the VAP configuration page.
