- L2 Access Control
- Creating an L2 Access Control ServiceAnother method to control access to the network is by defining Layer 2 MAC address access control lists (ACLs), which can then be applied to one or more WLANs or WLAN groups. L2 ACLs are either allow-only or deny-only; that is, an ACL can be set up to allow only specified clients based on the MAC addresses that are configured. Further, L2 ACLs can also be used to allow-only or deny-only clients based on the ether types of the packet where EtherTypes is a field present in the ethernet header of a packet.
- URL FilteringYou can use the URL filtering feature to block access to inappropriate websites. The Web pages available on the internet are classified into different categories, and those identified to be blocked can be configured based on available categories. Administrators can also create policies based on these categories, to allow or deny user access.
