Exclude List Management
The Exclude list is a list of WiFi networks that you will not automatically be connected to. This feature lets you
restrict automatic access to a listed network or access point, even if you have created a profile for that WiFi
network. Use Exclude List Management to exclude entire WiFi networks (SSID).
How to Access
There are two ways to access the Exclude List Management screen:
Click Manage Exclusions at the Profiles menu, or
At the main window, select a network and click the Properties button. Then click Manage Exclusions.
NOTE: If an administrator has designated a network for exclusion, only an administrator using the Administrator
Tool may remove the network from the Exclude List. Administrators can exclude profiles from the Administrator
Tool. See Administrator Tool
.
This icon on the WiFi Networks list
indicates that a network has been excluded.
