24.4.1 Configuring MAC Address Filter

Your Prestige checks the MAC address of the wireless station device against a list of allowed
or denied MAC addresses. However, intruders could fake allowed MAC addresses so MAC-
based authentication is less secure than EAP authentication.
Follow the steps below to create the MAC address table on your Prestige.
1 From the main menu, enter 3 to open Menu 3 - LAN Setup.
2 Enter 5 to display Menu 3.5 - Wireless LAN Setup.
3 In the Edit MAC Address Filtering field, press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes and press
[ENTER]. Menu 3.5.1 - WLAN MAC Address Filter displays as shown next
