Configure Wireless Address Authentication
The following page allows you to configure which wireless PCs
can access the Commander Pulse:
By default, any wireless PC that is configured with your
network’s SSID and channel number can connect to your
Commander Pulse. You may want to increase the security of
your wireless network by creating one of the following lists of
wireless PCs:
A wireless PC blacklist; PCs on this list cannot access the
Commander Pulse, but all other wireless PCs can.
A wireless PC whitelist; PCs on this list can access the
Commander Pulse, but all other wireless PCs cannot.
The Wireless PCs added to either list are identified by their
unique MAC address. This is made up of six pairs of characters,
with each character either a number between 0 and 9, or a letter
between A and F. For example, 00:20:2b:80:2f:30.
