To add a MAC filter, do the following:
1. Click Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:
2. Specify the MAC address in the dialog box and click OK.
3. Repeat these steps for any additional MAC addresses you want to filter.
Note: If there is a conflict between an IP filter and a MAC filter – for example,
where a computer's IP address is allowed by the IP filter but it's MAC
address is excluded by the MAC filter – then that computer's access is
blocked. In other words, if either filter blocks a computer, then the
computer is blocked, no matter what the other filter is set to.
Modifying Filters
To modify a filter, select it in the filter list box and click Modify. The Modify
dialog box is similar to the Add dialog box. When it comes up, simply delete
the old address(es) and replace it with the new one(s).
Deleting Filters
To delete a filter, select it in the filter list box and click Delete.
The Filter section also lets administrators specify a Login String that users must
include (in addition to the IP address) when they access the CN9000/CN9600/
CN9900/CN9950 with a browser. For example:
192.168.0.126/CN9000/CN9600/CN9900/CN9950
The following characters are allowed:
0–9 a–z A–Z ~ ! @ $ ^ & * ( ) _ + ' - = [ ] { } ; ' < > , . |
The following characters are not allowed:
% " : / ? # \ [Space]
Compound characters (É Ç ñ ... etc.)
Note: 1. There must be a forward slash between the IP address and the string.
2. If no login string is specified here, anyone will be able to access the
CN9000/CN9600/CN9900/CN9950 login page using the IP address
alone. This makes your installation less secure.
For security purposes, we recommend that you change this string occasionally.
