MAC Authentication – You can configure a list of the MAC
addresses for wireless clients that are authorized to access the
network. This provides a basic level of authentication for wireless
clients attempting to gain access to the network. A database of
authorized MAC addresses can be stored locally on the access
point or remotely on a central RADIUS server. (Default: Local
MAC)
• Local MAC: The MAC address of the associating station is
compared against the local database stored on the access
point. The Local MAC Authentication section enables the local
database to be set up.
• Radius MAC: The MAC address of the associating station is
sent to a configured RADIUS server for authentication. When
using a RADIUS authentication server for MAC address
authentication, the server must first be configured in the
Radius window (page 6-10).
• Disable: No checks are performed on an associating station’s
MAC address.
