Assigning A Name And Authorization To A Device - netAlly EtherScope nXG Controlled Edition User Manual

Assigning a Name and
Authorization to a Device
The Wi-Fi and Discovery apps provide the
option to assign a Name and Authorization to
any discovered device with a MAC Address or
BSSID.
Assigning a User Name and/or Authorization
status does not change any of the information
on the actual device, only how the device's
information displays on the EtherScope on
which the Name and Authorization are
assigned.
You only need to assign a Name and/or Author-
ization to one BSSID or MAC address for a
device with multiple addresses. Names and
Authorizations are saved in the internal auth-
name.txt file and remain set as the unit powers
off and on.
This feature allows you to quickly identify your
known devices and categorize them with the
following statuses:
Authorized: For devices approved for use on
l
your network
