Restrict Wireless Access by MAC Address
For increased security, you can restrict access to a wireless network by allowing access to
only specific computers or wireless clients based on their MAC addresses. You can restrict
access to only trusted computers so that unknown computers cannot connect wirelessly to
the wireless access point. MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access
to your network, but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.
Note:
For wireless adapters, you can usually find the MAC address printed
on the wireless adapter.
