6.4.1Editing an Existing Wireless Filter

Use the Edit screen to modify the properties of an existing filter. This is recommended if an existing filter contains adequate device address information, but the allow/deny permissions need to be changed or if only minor changes are required to the starting and ending MAC addresses. If significant changes are required to a usable filter, consider creating a new one.

To edit an existing filter:

1.Select Special Features> Filters from the main menu tree.

2.Select one of the existing ACLs from the filters list.

3.Click the Edit button at the bottom of the screen to launch a new dialogue used for editing an ACL.

Within the screen the user can modify an ACL Index (numerical identifier) for the ACL, and edit the starting an ending MAC address range for the devices allowed or denied access to the switch managed network.

4.The Station-ACL Index is used as an identifier for a MAC Address range and allow/deny ACL designation. The available index range is 1 - 1000. However, the index is not editable, only its starting/ ending MAC range and allow/deny designation. If a new index is needed, create a new filter.

5.Modify the existing Starting MAC for the target Index or leave the Starting MAC value as is and just modify the Ending MAC Address or Allow/Deny designation.

6.Modify the existing Ending MAC for the target Index. Enter the same Starting MAC address within the Ending MAC field to use only the Starting MAC address as either allowed or denied access to the switch managed network.

7.Use the drop-down menu to select Allow or Deny.

This rule applies to the MUs within the specified Starting and Ending MAC Address range. For example, if the adoption rule is to Allow, access is granted for all MUs within the specified range.

8.Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field displays error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and the switch.

9.Click OK to use the changes to the running configuration and close the dialog.
