Configuring access control
You can control wireless access to your network by
specifying each wireless client’s MAC address. MAC
addresses are 16-digit hexadecimal identification numbers
assigned to networking devices, such as adapters, at the
factory. Each adapter has a unique MAC address that cannot
be changed. The MAC address is usually printed on a label
on the back of the adapter.
Limiting network access to specific MAC addresses provides
additional security and improves network performance by
filtering extraneous traffic.
