Configuring IoT Whitelist
Create a whitelist of approved nodes for the Thread Network. The IoT whitelist applies to all APs that
are configured for Thread Gateway associated with the ExtremeCloud Appliance.
If your whitelist is empty, all sensors with the default password THREAD have access to the Thread
Network. Once you configure at least one node on the whitelist, network access is limited to only nodes
configured on the whitelist.
Note
Once a whitelist is configured, only nodes configured on the whitelist gain access to the
Thread Network.
