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 37.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
