For Name, enter a meaningful device name or identifier, or the name of the

TIP Add one or two individual MAC addresses, then save those MAC addresses
to a file (see “Saving MAC Addresses” later in this section). Then open the text
file and copy the saved address(es) to a new line in the file, and edit each line to
specify a different client device and MAC address. This way, you can create your
list of authorized devices, save the file as a backup, and upload the file into the
System Manager knowing that the format of the text file will be acceptable to the
System Manager.
