Network Parameters

Examples:
— If you set the Wired MAC Address to 00:03:8F:00:00:00 and you want to block all cards that begin with

00:03:8F, enter FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 as the Wired Mask. This will block any cards whose MAC address
begins with those digits, ranging from 00:03:8F:00:00:00 to 00:03:8F:FF:FF:FF.

— If you set the Wired MAC Address to a single MAC address (e.g., 00:03:8F:43:23:12), enter

FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF as the Wired Mask. The filter will block only the specified address.

— A Wired MAC Address of 00:03:8F:43:23:12 and a Wired Mask of FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 will also block any

cards whose MAC address begins with 00:03:8F, ranging from 00:03:8F:00:00:00 to 00:03:8F:FF:FF:FF.
To the filter, 00:03:8F:43:23:12 and 00:03:8F:00:00:00 are the same address; based on the specified
Wired Mask, only the value of the first six digits matter.

NOTE

For the purposes of this filter, the Wired Address refers to a packet’s source address. Therefore, all packets
whose source address equals the Wired MAC Filter will be blocked by the AP.
