You can deny network access to specific computers and WiFi devices based on their MAC addresses. Each
network device is assigned a MAC address, which is a unique 12-character physical address, containing
the hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only, and separated by colons (for example, 00:09:AB:CD:EF:01).
