Client Classification

The Client Classification Screen lets you classify the existing wireless clients into trusted networks and untrusted networks. New client information is received from Linksys Business Series access points. New clients start off as Unclassified until the System Administrator classifies them. A Trusted Client is one that has been identified by the System Administrator to be known and legitimate. An Untrusted Client is one that is known and not legitimate; this client could be a malicious client or simply a neighborhood client not part of the network. Remaining clients that have not been classified can be considered as unclassified or unknown.

The left table lists the available unclassified clients with their associated Access Point's SSID. The top right table lists the clients that have been classified as Trusted. The lower right table lists the clients that have been classified as Untrusted.

You may select any items from the Unclassified Clients table and click the arrow to classify your selections into Trusted Clients or Untrusted Clients. You may also select any items from the Trusted Clients or Untrusted Clients and click the arrow to de-classify your selections into theUnclassified Clients table.

You may click Refresh to refresh the list, Clear to clear selected items on the list, or Back to go to the previous screen.

You may click AP Classification, Client Classification, or Advanced Settings to go to that screen.

Trusted MAC Addresses

The Trusted AP’s MAC Addresess that you enter on this screen will also appear on the AP Classification screen as a trusted access point.

The tables list the entry of MAC addresses of your trusted and allowed wireless access points and clients.
