MAC Control

The MAC Control function allows you to assign the accessibility to the router for different users based on device's MAC
(Media Access Control) address. You can define up to twenty (20) MAC Control Rules which are designated as either Black
Lists or White Lists.
When designated as a Black List all the MAC addresses in enabled rules will be prevented from accessing the router.
When designated as a White List all the MAC addresses in enabled rules will be allowed to access the router.
In addition, MAC Control activity can be logged, monitored and reported.
