8.14 MAC Filter

The MAC filter screen allows you to configure the Prestige to give exclusive access to up to 32 devices
(Allow Association) or exclude up to 32 devices from accessing the Prestige (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 the devices to configure this screen.
To change your Prestige’s MAC filter settings, click the WIRELESS link under ADVANCED and then the
MAC Filter tab. The screen appears as shown.
