7.4 The MAC Authentication Screen
This screen allows you to configure the AMG1302-T11C to give exclusive access to specific devices
(Allow) or exclude specific devices from accessing the AMG1302-T11C (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 addresses of the devices to configure this screen.
Wireless Network Name
(SSID)
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the service set with which a wireless
device is associated. Wireless devices associating to the access point (AP) must
have the same SSID.
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 English keyboard characters) for the wireless
LAN.
Hide SSID Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station
cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Guest WLAN Select this to create Guest WLANs for home and external clients. Select the WLAN
type in the Access Scenario field.
Access Scenario If you select Home Guest, clients connecting to the same SSID can communicate
with each other directly.
If you select External Guest, clients are blocked from connecting to each other
directly.
