Filter
To
set
the
MAC
Address
Filter,
select
one
of
the
following
options:
•
Allow
only
stations
in
the
list
.
Any
station
that
is
not
in
the
Stations
List
is
denied
access
to
the
network
through
the
AP.
•
Block
all
stations
in
list
.
Only
the
stations
that
appear
in
the
list
are
denied
access
to
the
network
through
the
AP.
All
other
stations
are
permitted
access.
Note:
The
filter
you
select
is
applied
to
the
clients
in
the
station
list,
regardless
of
whether
that
station
list
is
local
or
on
the
RADIUS
server.
Stations
List
This
is
the
local
list
of
clients
that
are
either
permitted
or
denied
access
to
the
network
through
the
AP.
To
add
a
MAC
Address
to
the
local
Stations
List,
enter
its
48
‐
bit
MAC
address
into
the
lower
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
AP
uses
the
Stations
List
to
permit
or
deny
the
clients
access
to
the
network.
If
the
MAC
authentication
type
is
set
to
RADIUS,
the
AP
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.
