WAP5805 User’s Guide

The MAC filter screen allows you to configure the WAP5805 to give exclusive access to devices 
(Allow) or exclude devices from accessing the WAP5805 (Deny). Every Ethernet device has a 
unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and 
consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know 
the MAC address of the devices to configure this screen.

To change your WAP5805’s MAC filter settings, click Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN > 
MAC Filter. The screen appears as shown.
