Purpose: Configure access control for the Cloud Edge gateway's wireless networks. Access control is used to allow or restrict (deny) specific clients from accessing the main and guest wireless networks.

Location: Gateways > (Selected Gateway) > WIRELESS > Access Control

  1. Under Enable global MAC address filtering, click On.

    If set to On, MAC address filtering is enforced on both the main and guest wireless networks.

  2. (Optional) Under Enforce MAC filtering for guest wireless network, click On.

    Select On for this option if you want to enforce MAC address filtering for the guest network even if global MAC address filtering is turned Off.

  3. Under MAC Address Filtering List, select the appropriate option:
    • To use a blocked list for access control, select Use blocked list.
    • To use an approved list for access control, select Use approved list.

    You can choose to use either a blocked list or an approved list to provide access control to the wireless networks. You cannot use both.

  4. Click Save.
Allow or restrict specific clients from wireless network access by adding clients to the blocked list or approved list (depending on which list is selected).
