Local MAC Authentication – Configures the local MAC
authentication database. The MAC database provides a
mechanism to take certain actions based on a wireless client’s
MAC address. The MAC list can be configured to allow or deny
network access to specific clients.
• System Default: Specifies a default action for all unknown
MAC addresses (that is, those not listed in the local MAC
database).
• Deny: Blocks access for all MAC addresses except those
listed in the local database as “Allow.”
• Allow: Permits access for all MAC addresses except
those listed in the local database as “Deny.”
• MAC Authentication Settings: Enters specified MAC
addresses and permissions into the local MAC database.
• MAC Address: Physical address of a client. Enter six pairs
of hexadecimal digits separated by hyphens; for example,
00-90-D1-12-AB-89.
