This screen allows you to configure the Connection Control List to either permit or block specific wireless client
devices connecting to (associating with) the Access Point.
Wireless Connection Control
Enabled/Disabled. Enable or disable wireless connection control. The default is disabled.
Connection Control
There are two ways to control the connection (association) of wireless client devices. You can either prevent
specific devices from connecting to the Access Point, or you can allow only specific client devices to connect to
the Access Point. The client devices are specified by their MAC addresses. The default is to allow only specific
client devices.
Wireless Client List
Instead of manually entering the MAC addresses of each client, the Access Point provides a convenient way to
select a specific client device from the client association table. Click this button and a window appears to let you
select a MAC address from the table. The selected MAC address will be entered into the Connection Control List.
Connection Control List
MAC 01-20. Enter the MAC addresses of the wireless client devices you want to control.
