Security Policy
On a WLAN, a blacklist or whitelist can be configured to filter access requests from STAs based on specified rules, allowing authorized STAs to connect to the WLAN and rejecting unauthorized STAs.
-
Whitelist
A whitelist contains MAC addresses of STAs that are allowed to connect to a WLAN. After the whitelist function is enabled, only the STAs matching the whitelist can connect to the WLAN.
-
Blacklist
A blacklist contains MAC addresses of STAs that are not allowed to connect to a WLAN. After the blacklist function is enabled, STAs matching the blacklist cannot connect to the WLAN.
If the whitelist or blacklist function is enabled but the whitelist or blacklist is empty, all STAs can connect to the WLAN.
Configuration Method
Multiple STA whitelist and blacklist profiles can be configured on a switch and applied to different Virtual Access Point (VAP) profiles or Access Point (AP) system profiles. In a VAP profile or AP system profile, either the STA whitelist profile or STA blacklist profile takes effect at one time.
