Blocking Client Devices
When users log into a ZoneDirector network, their client devices are recorded and
tracked. If, for any reason, you need to block a client device from network use, you
can do so from the web interface. The following subtopics describe various tasks
that you can perform to monitor, block and unblock client devices manually from
the ZoneDirector web interface.
Note the following considerations when managing the Blocked Clients list:
• The block list is system-wide and is applied to all WLANs in addition to any per-
WLAN ACLs. If a MAC address is listed in the system-wide block list, it will be
blocked even if it is an allowed entry in an ACL. Thus, the block list takes
precedence over an ACL.
• MAC addresses that are in the deny list are blocked at the AP, not at ZoneDirector.
