5.3.13 MAC Filter

Mac filtering is a security feature that can help to prevent unauthorized users from connecting to your access

point.

This function allows you to define a list of network devices permitted to connect to the access point. Devices are

each identified by their unique MAC address. If a device which is not on the list of permitted MAC addresses

attempts to connect to the access point, it will be denied.
