How to -

assign (or remove) Internet access restrictions to specific computers on your network:

You may assign a pre-defined Wi-Fi user restriction profile (the GuestNetwork or Blacklist default profiles) or a custom profile (created in

on page 39) to devices on your network.

Open the

System > Restricted Hosts

page.

Note:

this procedure requires that the computers to restrict are “known” to the 2247-N8. Simply connecting to the 2247-N8 wired or wireless network

will let the 2247-N8 discover the device. You may also refresh the list as described in

It may be easier to identify specific devices in the table if you first assign an alias to them, as described in

1. Locate the computer that you want to restrict in the

Device Restriction

table at the bottom of the page. This table lists all client devices that the

2247-N8 has learned the MAC (hardware) address of.

2. Click the

Restriction Type

pull-down menu associated with the device. Select a restriction type to apply to the device:

None: give the device unrestricted access to the Internet.

GuestNetwork (for Wi-Fi users only): restrict the wireless device from accessing any computers on your home (wired or Wi-Fi) network.

Blacklist (for Wi-Fi users only): restrict the wireless device from accessing the Internet, or any computers on the home networks.

ProfileX: Select a profile (where “X” is the profile number) listed in the pull-down menu to enforce the chosen access profile on that device.

3. Repeat the selection process for any devices that you want to apply an access restriction to. You may assign the same access profile to any number

of devices known to the 2247-N8.

4. Click the

Save

button to assign the access profile(s) to the devices.
