Static MAC
The Static MAC Address filter optimizes the performance of a wireless (and wired) network. When this feature is properly
configured, the AP can block traffic between wired devices and wireless devices based on MAC address.
For example, you can set up a Static MAC filter to prevent wireless clients from communicating with a specific server on
the Ethernet network. You can also use this filter to block unnecessary multicast packets from being forwarded to the
wireless network.
NOTE: The Static MAC Filter is an advanced feature. You may find it easier to control wireless traffic via other filtering
options, such as Ethernet Protocol Filtering.
