Configuring the MAC Filter List

Wireless > MAC Filter List

Wireless networking provides native MAC filtering capabilities which prevents wireless clients from authenticating and associating with the TZ 50 Wireless/TZ 150 Wireless/TZ 170 Wireless. If you enforce MAC filtering on the WLAN, wireless clients must provide you with the MAC address of their wireless networking card. Unless you enable Easy WGS MAC Filtering as a privilege when you configure a User account in Users > Settings.

To set up your MAC Filter List, log into the SonicWALL, and click Wireless, then MAC Filter List.

1Click Add to add a MAC address to the MAC Filter List.

2Select Allow from the Action menu to allow access to the WLAN. To deny access, select Block.

3Type the MAC address in the MAC Address field. The two character groups should be separated by a hyphen.

4Type a name or comment in the Comment field. The Comment field can be used to identify the source of the MAC address.
