Specify an Accept or Deny List
To set up MAC filtering, you first need to specify which type of list you want to configure, and assign a
name to the list.
To set up an Accept list:
With this type of list, client stations whose
MAC addresses are listed will be allowed
access to the access point.
To set up a Deny list:
With this type of list, client stations whose
MAC addresses are listed will be denied
access to the access point.
Add MAC Addresses of Client Stations to the Filtering List
To add a MAC address to the list:
add mac-acl list_name mac MAC_Address_Of_Client
Where list_name is the name of a MAC filtering list and MAC_Address_Of_Client is the MAC address of
the wireless client that you want to add to the MAC filtering list.
For example, to add 4 new clients to the list named Internal:
interface
set bss
mac-acl-mode accept-list
interface
set bss
mac-acl-name
Where interface is the wireless network interface for which you want
to define a MAC filtering list, and list_name is a name that you choose
for the list. Valid values for
• wlan0bssInternal
• wlan0bssGuest
• wlan0bssVWN1
• wlan0bssVWN2
Example:
set bss wlan0bssGuest mac-acl-mode accept-list
set bss wlan0bssGuest mac-acl-name Guest
interface
set bss
mac-acl-mode deny-list
interface
set bss
mac-acl-name
Where interface is the wireless network interface for which you want
to define a MAC filtering list, and list
for the list. Valid values for
• wlan0bssInternal
• wlan0bssGuest
• wlan0bssVWN1
• wlan0bssVWN2
Example:
