In this page, we provide the following Combo box and button to help you to input the MAC address.
You can select a specific client in the DHCP clients Combo box, and then click on the "Copy to"
button to copy the MAC address of the client you select to the ID selected in the "ID" Combo box.
Previous and Next Page
To make this setup page simple and clear, we have divided the "Control Table" into several pages.
You can use these buttons to switch to different pages.
Example:
In this scenario, there are three clients listed in the Table. Clients 1 and 2 are wireless, and client 3 is
wired.
1. The MAC Address Control" function is enabled.
2. Connection Control is enabled and all the wired and wireless clients not listed in the Control
table are "Allowed" to connect to this device.
3. Association Control is enabled, and all of the wireless clients not listed in the Control table are
"Denied" to associate to the wireless LAN.
4. Clients 1 and 3 have fixed IP address either from the DHCP server of this device or manually
assigned:
ID 1 - "00-12-34-56-78-90" --> 192.168.1.100
ID 3 - "00-98-76-54-32-10" --> 192.168.1.101
Client 2 will obtain its IP address from the IP Address pool specified in the "DHCP Server" page or
can use a manually assigned static IP address.
For example, Client 1 tries to use an IP address different from the address listed in the Control
Table (192.168.1.100), it will be denied to connect to this device.
5. Clients 2 and 3 and other wired clients with a MAC address unspecified in the Control table are all
allowed to connect to this device. But client 1 is denied to connect to this device.
6. Clients 1 and 2 are allowed to associate to the wireless LAN, but a wireless client with a MAC
address not specified in the Control table is denied to associate to the wireless LAN. Client 3 is a
wired client and so is not affected by Association control.
MAC address indicates a specific client.
Expected IP address of the corresponding client. Keep it empty if you
don't care its IP address.
When "Connection control" is checked, check "C" will allow the
corresponding client to connect to this device.
When "Association control" is checked, check "A" will allow the
corresponding client to associate to the wireless LAN.
