4.2.6 Access Control Settings
Maximum Number of Clients
EAP100 supports various methods of authenticating clients for using wireless LAN. The default policy is
unlimited access without any authentication required. To restrict the station number of wireless connections,
simply change the
Maximum Number of Stations
to a desired number. For example, while the number of
stations is set to 20, only 20 stations are allowed to connect to the specified VAP.
Access Control Type
The selected
Access Control Type
will be the activated policy while the rest will be omitted. The following is a
list of the supported methods for MAC ACL control:
(1)
Disable
No MAC address check required.
(2)
Allow List
Deny all except those in the Allow List. When selecting
Allow List
, all wireless connections to the
specified VAP will be denied except the MAC addresses listed in the Allow List (“allowed MAC
addresses”). The administrator can disable any allowed MAC address to connect to the VAP temporarily
by checking
Disable
. For example, 11:22:33:44:55:66 is in the Allow List; to temporarily deny its access,
check
Disable
in the
State
section.
