removal from the list.

Whitelist or Blacklist

to communicate with the module and utilise the
radio link. All other devices are blocked unless
they exist in an IP whitelist.

Uncheck the box to make the list a blacklist. This

NOTE: When configuring a TCP filter it is often desirable to also configure both an ARP
and an ICMP filter for the same IP Address range. The ARP filter is required whenever
the sending device does not have a fixed IP to MAC Address translation table entry (i.e.
whenever the device may need to send an ARP request to determine the MAC address
of a device with a known IP Address). An ICMP filter is needed to allow/disallow “pings”.
