2. ZyXEL MAC Filter Implementation
ZyXEL's MAC Filter Implementation allows users to define a list to allow or block association from
STAs. The filter set allows users to input 32 entries in the list. If Allow Association is selected, all other
STAs which are not on the list will be denied. Otherwise, if Deny Association is selected, all other STAs
which are not on the list will be allowed for association. Users can choose either way to configure their
filter rule.
