STA Whitelist Profile

Context

STA blacklist and whitelist functions allow authorized STAs to connect to the WLAN and reject access from unauthorized STAs.
  • A whitelist contains MAC addresses of STAs that are allowed to connect to a WLAN. After the whitelist function is enabled, only the STAs in the whitelist can connect to the WLAN, and access from other STAs is rejected.
  • A blacklist contains MAC addresses of STAs that are not allowed to connect to a WLAN. After the blacklist function is enabled, STAs in the blacklist cannot connect to the WLAN, and other STAs can connect to the WLAN.

If the whitelist or blacklist is empty, all STAs can connect to the WLAN.
