46	AT-WR4500 Series - IEEE 802.11abgh Outdoor Wireless Routers
	RouterOS v3 Configuration and User Guide

The association procedure is as follows: when a new client wants to associate to the AP that is configured on interface wlanN, an entry with client's MAC address and interface wlanN is looked up sequentially from top to bottom in the access-list. If such entry is found, action specified in the access list is performed, else default-authenticationand default-forwardingarguments of interface wlanN are taken.

Property Description

ap-tx-limit(integer; default: 0) - limits data rate for this wireless client (in bps)

0 - no limits

authentication (yes no; default: yes) - whether to accept or to reject this client when it tries to connect

client-tx-limit(integer; default: 0) - limits this client's transmit data rate (in bps). Works only if the client is also a RouterOS Router

0 - no limits

forwarding (yes no; default: yes) - whether to forward the client's frames to other wireless clients interface (name) - name of the respective interface

mac-address(MAC address) - MAC address of the client (can be 00:00:00:00:00:00 for any client) private-algo(104bit-wep 40bit-wep none) - which encryption algorithm to use private-key(text; default: "") - private key of the client. Used for private-algoprivate-pre-shared-key(text) - private preshared key for that station (in case any of the PSK authentication methods were used)

signal-range(integer) - signal strength range in dBm. Rule is matched, if the signal from AP is within this range

time (time) - rule is only matched during the specified period of time

￿

If you have default authentication action for the interface set to yes, you can disallow this node to register at the AP's interface wlanN by setting authentication=no for it. Thus, all nodes except this one will be able to register to the interface wlanN.

If you have default authentication action for the interface set to no, you can allow this node to register at the AP's interface wlanN by setting authentication=yes for it. Thus, only the specified nodes will be able to register to the interface wlanN.

Example

To allow authentication and forwarding for the client 00:01:24:70:3A:BB from the wlan1 interface using WEP 40bit algorithm with the key 1234567890:

[admin@AT-WR4562] interface wireless access-list> add mac-address= \

\... 00:01:24:70:3A:BB interface=wlan1 private-algo=40bit-wep private-key=1234567890 [admin@AT-WR4562] interface wireless access-list> print

Flags: X - disabled

0mac-address=00:01:24:70:3A:BB interface=wlan1 signal-range=-120.120 authentication=yes forwarding=yes ap-tx-limit=0 client-tx-limit=0
