access to up to 16 devices (Allow) or exclude up to 16 devices from accessing the 
NBG-416N (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.
