Manage Access to the WiFi Network Through a WiFi Access List By default, all WiFi devices are allowed to connect to the WiFi network. If you enable access control, only devices that you add to the WiFi access control list (ACL) are allowed access to the WiFi network and all other WiFi devices are blocked. An ACL functions with the MAC addresses of WiFi devices. The access point can detect the MAC addresses of devices that are connected to the WiFi network and list the MAC addresses of devices. Each network device owns a MAC address, which is a unique 12-character physical address, containing the hexadecimal characters 0-9, a-f, or A-F (uppercase or lowercase) only, and separated by colons (for example, 00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). The MAC address might be on the label of the WiFi device, you might find it in the system information of the device, or you might be able to display it by using the network configuration utility of the device.
