9.4 The MAC Filter Screen
The MAC filter function allows you to configure the ZyXEL Device to give exclusive access
to devices (Allow Association) or exclude devices from accessing the ZyXEL Device (Deny
Association).
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address
is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know the MAC address of each device to configure MAC
filtering on the ZyXEL Device.
The MAC filter profile is a user-configured list of MAC addresses. Each SSID profile can
reference one MAC filter profile. The ZyXEL Device provides 16 MAC Filter profiles, each
of which can hold up to 32 MAC addresses.
Click WIRELESS > MAC Filter. The screen displays as shown.
