5.3.4.2 MAC Filter
A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier for each
PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your
router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can configure to block specific machines from
accessing your LAN.
There are no pre-defined MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your
requirements.
MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses you wish to manage.
Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your
prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.
If the DHCP server option is enabled, you must be very careful in
assigning IP addresses of a filtered private IP range to avoid conflicts
because you do not know which PC in the LAN is assigned which IP
address. The easiest and safest way is that the filtered IP address is
assigned to a specific PC that is not allowed to access an outside resource
such as the Internet. You configure the filtered IP address manually for this
PC, but it stays in the same subnet with the router.
