5.3.1.2 Configuring a WLAN Access Control List (ACL)
An Access Control Lists (ACL) affords a system administrator the ability to grant or restrict MU access
by specifying a MU MAC address or range of MAC addresses to either include or exclude from
AP-5131 connectivity. Use the
Mobile Unit Access Control List Configuration screen to create
new ACL policies (using the New MU ACL Policy sub-screen) or edit existing policies (using the
Edit MU ACL Policy sub-screen). Once new policies are defined, they are available for use within
the New WLAN or Edit WLAN screens to assign to specific WLANs based on MU interoperability
requirements.
Symbol recommends using the New MU ACL Policy or Edit MU ACL Policy screens strategically to
name and configure ACL policies meeting the requirements of the particular WLANs they may map
to. However, be careful not to name policies after specific WLANs, as individual ACL policies can be
used by more than one WLAN. For detailed information on assigning ACL policies to specific WLANs,
see
Creating/Editing Individual WLANs on page 5-24 .
To create or edit ACL policies for WLANs:
1. Select Network Configuration -> Wireless -> MU ACL from the AP-5131 menu tree.
