4.9 LAN MAC Filtering
Your router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, email or other network services.
Restrictions can be set for a single computer, a range of computers or multiple computers.
4.9.1 MAC Filtering
The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you to specify which computers are
allowed on your network. Any computer attempting to access your network must be specified in the filter
list or it will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must enter the MAC address of each
client (computer) on your network in order to allow network access to each.
MAC Services Blocking can be set in three modes.
•
Disable. In this mode, there are no restrictions on any devices connected to the router, whether
through Wi-Fi or Ethernet ports
•
Deny. In this mode, the service table shows the client MAC address being blocked by the router.
•
Allow. In this mode, the service table shows the client MAC address allowed by the router.
To modify the service table (add, change address or remove clients), enter the correct value and click
“Apply”.
Note: You will not be able to delete the MAC address of the computer you are using to access the router’s
administrative functions.
