6.5 MAC Address List
The MAC Address List screen allows you to specify which devices are allowed to access the
WRE2205, while denying access to all unspecified devices. 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 the devices to configure this screen.
To change your WRE2205’s MAC Address List settings, click Network > Wireless LAN > MAC
Address List. The screen appears as shown.
