A MAC filter list allows or blocks network access based on clients' MAC addresses, ensuring only authorized devices can connect. To block specific clients, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > MAC Filter List and click Add.
  2. Enter a Profile Name and select Deny for the Filter Action.
  3. Click Add to include MAC addresses to the list.
  4. Enter the MAC addresses of the devices to be blocked in the MAC field and click OK to save the settings.


This configuration ensures that only permitted devices can access the network while blocking unauthorized ones.
