5 Configuring Access Point Settings
The following table describes the MAC Authentication fields in more detail.
Configuring Wireless Radio Settings
The DWL-3500AP supports one radio that operates in IEEE 802.11g mode. The DWL-
8500AP supports two radios: Radio 1 operates in IEEE 802.11a mode, and Radio 2 operates in
IEEE 802.11g mode.
The difference between the IEEE 802.11 modes is the frequency in which they operate. IEEE
802.11g operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency, and IEEE 802.11a operates in the 5 GHz
frequency of the radio spectrum.
You configure the default radio settings from the Administration > Basic Setup > Radio tab,
which Figure 38 shows.
Table 8. MAC Authentication
Field Description
Default Action
The default action is the action that is taken for unknown MAC addresses of
wireless clients that attempt to associate with an access point.
• Allow—Only the clients you explicitly add to this list are allowed access
to APs that use MAC Authentication.
• Deny—Only the clients you explicitly add to this list are denied access
to APs that use MAC Authentication.
MAC List This list shows the MAC address of the wireless clients that have already
been added to the list of wireless clients to allow or deny access to the APs.
MAC Address Enter the MAC address of the wireless client to allow or deny access to all
APs that use this profile.
