WiFi devices in the Trusted Stations table can access the WiFi network to which you
apply the ACL. WiFi devices in the Untrusted Stations table cannot access the WiFi
network to which you apply the ACL.

Import an existing MAC access control list

You can import an existing access control list (ACL) that is based on up to 256 MAC
addresses. You can import the list into any MAC ACL, but the MAC addresses on the
list are available only for the MAC ACL into which you import the list. That is, if you want
to use the same list in another MAC ACL, you must also import the list into that MAC
ACL.
The file with MAC addresses must be in the following format:
• Entries in the file must be MAC addresses only in hexadecimal format with each octet
separated by a hyphen, for example 00-11-22-33-44-55.
• You must separate entries with a comma.
• The file must be in text format (that is, with a .txt or .cfg extension).
You can use a MAC ACL to control which WiFi devices can access a WiFi network. You
can apply a MAC ACL to more than one WiFi network.
To import an existing MAC ACL:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
If your browser does not open the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 41.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously added the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and
managed the access point through the Insight app or Insight Cloud portal, enter the
Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over
WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight App on an iOS or Android mobile device on page
26).
