Inserting and Removing MAC Addresses
{{What does this do? What significance does inserting a MAC Address
have for a VLAN? Help was no help. Still waiting for this info... The docs

To specify the MAC address for the station that {{what?}} for the VLAN,

To remove the MAC address from the VLAN, type type r in the Advance
Group Static Configuration Menu, then specify the MAC address.
