13. From one of the MAC pull-down menus, select the filter number.
You can apply the filter to either or both the Ethernet and radio ports, and
to either or both incoming and outgoing packets.
14. Click Apply.
The filter is enabled on the selected ports.
If clients are not filtered immediately, click Reload on the System Configuration
page to restart the access point. To reach the System Configuration page, click
System Software on the task menu and then click System Configuration.
Using MAC Address ACLs to Block or Allow Client Association to the Access Point
You can use MAC address ACLs to block or allow association to the access point.
Instead of filtering traffic across an interface, you use the ACL to filter
associations to the access point radio.
Follow these steps to use an ACL to filter associations to the access point radio:
1. Follow Steps 1 through 10 in the
Creating a Time-base ACL on page 478
to create an ACL.
IMPORTANT Client devices with blocked MAC addresses cannot send or receive data through
the access point, but they can remain in the Association Table as
unauthenticated client devices. Client devices with blocked MAC addresses
disappear from the Association Table when the access point stops monitoring
them, when the access point restarts, or when the clients associate to another
access point.
