To create an access control list:
1. From the main window, select Create > Access Port > Access Control List. The system launches the
Access Control List Wizard.
Figure 6.27 Creating an Access Control List—Naming the ACL (and Optionally, Choosing a Template)
2. Enter a name and default action (allow or deny) for the new ACL, then if desired, select Use an existing
Access Control List as a template.
3. Click Next. A panel for configuring the ACL rules is displayed. An ACL rule consists of a MAC address
range, and an action (either allow or deny). When an MU is discovered, its MAC address is compared to
the defined ACL rules, as follows:
• If the MU is in an "allow" rule, the MU is allowed to associate.
• If the MU is in a "deny" rule, it's not allowed to associate.
• If the MU is in neither rule, the default action applies.
