MAC Address Authentication
Enhanced in Software Version 8.5, MAC Address Authentication allows you to specify which client PCs are allowed to join the LAN by specific hardware address. Once it is enabled, only entered MAC addresses that have been set to Allow will be accepted onto the LAN. Alternatively, you can prevent access by certain client PCs by specifying only those to be denied.
To enable MAC Address Authentication, select MAC Address Authentication, and press Return.
The Authorized MAC Addresses screen appears.
