Setting MAC Address Filtering
The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you
to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer
attempting to access the network that is not specified in the filter list
will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must enter
the MAC address of each client (computer) on your network to allow
network access to each. The “Block” feature lets you turn on and off
access to the network easily for any computer without having to add
and remove the computer’s MAC address from the list.
To enable this feature, select “Enable MAC Address Filtering” (1).
Next, enter the MAC address of each computer on your network by
clicking in the space provided (2) and entering the MAC address of
the computer you want to add to the list. Click “Add” (3), then “Apply
Changes” to save the settings. To delete a MAC address from the list,
simply click “Delete” next to the MAC address you wish to delete. Click
“Apply Changes” to save the settings.
Note:
You will not be able to delete the MAC address of the computer
you are using to access the Router’s administrative functions (the
computer you are using now).
