2.Repeat these steps for any additional IP addresses you want to filter.
To add a MAC filter, do the following:
1.Click Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:
2.Specify the MAC address in the dialog box, then click OK.
3.Repeat these steps for any additional MAC addresses you want to filter.
Note: If there is a conflict between an IP filter and a MAC filter – for example, where a computer’s IP address is allowed by the IP filter but it’s MAC address is excluded by the MAC filter – then that computer’s access is blocked. In other words, if either filter blocks a computer, then the computer is blocked, no matter what the other filter is set to.
Modifying Filters
To modify a filter, select it in the IP Filter or MAC Filter list box and click Modify. The Modify dialog box is similar to the Add dialog box. When it comes up, simply delete the old address(es) and replace it with the new one(s).
