10.6 MAC Filter

The MAC filter screen allows you to configure the NBG to give exclusive access to devices (Allow) or
exclude devices from accessing the NBG (Deny). Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media
Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of
hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know the MAC address of
the devices to configure this screen.
To change your NBG's MAC filter settings, click Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or Wireless LAN
5G > MAC Filter. The screen appears as shown.
