Manually block a WiFi client or connection
from an SSID
You can manually block a WiFi client (that is, kick a client) or connection from an SSID.
If you do so, an ACL that denies the MAC address of the client is automatically added
to the SSID from which you blocked the client. That ACL denies access to the client but
allows access all other clients. You can manually delete the client from the ACL, after
which the client is no longer denied access to the SSID. For more information, see Set
up a MAC filter for an SSID on page 84.
To manually block a WiFi client or connection from an SSID:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is directly connected
over WiFi to the access point or connected to the same network as the access point.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
If you are directly connected to the "CONFIG-ONLY" SSID, you can enter
https://www.aplogin.net.
A login window displays.
If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point on
page 33. For more information about the "CONFIG-ONLY" SSID, see 2.4 GHz
management SSID on page 58.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security message and
does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after you complete the initial
log-in process on page 35.
3. Enter the access point local device password and click the Login button.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The password is
case-sensitive.
The Device Status page displays.
4. Under Overview, select Connections.
The page that displays shows the Connection List - 2.4GHz table and the Connection
List - 5GHz table.
For more information, see Display the WiFi connections on page 116.
