particular wireless device. You can view all the associated wireless devices, by MAC address, on a
selected Wireless AP. You can do the following:
● Disassociate a selected wireless device from its Wireless AP.
● Add a selected wireless device's MAC address to a blacklist of wireless clients that will not be
allowed to associate with the Wireless AP.
● Backup and restore the Summit WM Controller database. For more information, see “Performing
