Use this command to set the mode of the MAC address list. If the MAC address list mode is black, the MAC addresses on the list identify clients that are not allowed to associate with the AP (a “blacklist”). If the MAC list mode is white, only the clients identified by the MAC addresses on the list are allowed to associate with the AP (a “whitelist”).
| black | Sets the MAC address list as a blacklist, denying clients on the list access to the AP. This is the default. |
| white | Sets the MAC address list as a whitelist, allowing only clients on the list access to the AP. |
If you change the mode from blacklist to whitelist, all existing MAC addresses on the list will be erased. Use the show command to list the current mode and entries in the MAC address list.
This example shows the system prompt printed when changing from black mode to white mode:
EWC.extremenetworks.com:ap:blacklist# mac-list-mode white Change address list from whitelist to blacklist or vice versa will erase all existing address. Are you sure to do it? (yes/no):no
