NBG-419N User’s Guide

The MAC filter screen allows you to configure the NBG-419N to give exclusive 
access to devices (Allow) or exclude devices from accessing the NBG-419N 
(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 NBG-419N’s MAC filter settings, click Network > Wireless LAN 
> MAC Filter. The screen appears as shown.
