Mac Address Filter - Black Box DSL LAN Extender 400 User Manual

MAC Address Filter

MAC Address Filter provides user access control through the DSL LAN Extender. User needs to
manually generate a table of MAC Addresses. These are the MAC Addresses of the network adapter on
the user's machine. Once the MAC Addresses table is generated, it can be used as blocking or forwarding
function. If it is configured for blocking, all the devices that have the MAC Addresses included in the
MAC Addresses table are restricted from accessing or passing traffic through the DSL LAN Extender. On
the other hand, if it is configured for forwarding, only the devices, that have the MAC Addresses included
in the MAC Addresses table, are allowed to access or pass traffic through the DSL LAN Extender.
To add a MAC Address to the table:
1. Use the arrow key to navigate to the Add a MAC Address field.
2. Type in the MAC address of the machine that you wish to add using the following format:
aabbccddeeff.
3. Press <Ctrl-S> to save the new settings.
To delete a MAC Address from the table:
1. Locate the MAC address that you intend to delete.
2. Use the arrow key to navigate to the Delete a MAC Address field.
3. Enter the row and column of the MAC address that you intend to delete in the following format:
Row, Column
4. Press <Ctrl-S> to save the new settings.
