MAC ACL
: MAC Access Control List (ACL) provides the ability to allow or deny certain clients to
connect to the AP (applicable for AP and AP WDS modes only).
MAC ACL can be enabled by selecting the
Enabled
option.
There are two ways to set the Access Control List:
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have granted access to the Access Point. Access
will be denied for all remaining clients - MAC ACL
Policy
is set to
Allow
.
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have denied access to the Access Point. Access
will be granted for all remaining clients - MAC ACL
Policy
is set to Deny
.
The MAC addresses of wireless clients can be added and removed to the list using the
Add
and
Remove
buttons.
Note: MAC Access Control is the weakest security approach. WPA™ or WPA2™ security methods
should be used when possible.
