Step 4 Click OK. The filter set is enabled.

MAC Address Filtering

MAC address filters allow or disallow the forwarding of unicast and multicast packets either sent from or addressed to specific MAC addresses. You can create a filter that passes traffic to all MAC addresses except those you specify, or you can create a filter that blocks traffic to all MAC addresses except those you specify.

Note MAC address filters are powerful, and you can lock yourself out of the access point if you make a mistake setting up the filters. If you accidentally lock yourself out of your access point, follow the instructions in the “Using the Command-Line Interface” section on page 2-4to use the CLI to disable the filters.

Use the Address Filters page to create MAC address filters for the access point. Figure 5-6shows the Address Filters page.
