Setting Parental Controls
The Parental Control feature allows you to block specified keywords and web sites from
being accessed and also to specify trusted computers in the network. Trusted computers are
not affected by the parental control settings.
Finding the MAC Address of a Computer
In order to set up trusted computers you must first determine the MAC address of those
computers.
Use the operating system of your computer to find its MAC address, as follows:
Windows: from the Start menu, find and select the Control Panel. Double-click Network &
Sharing Center. Then double-click either “Wireless Network Connection” for a wireless
connection, or “Local Area Connection” for an Ethernet connection. Next click the Details
button. The “Physical Address” line shows the MAC address.
macOS: open System Preferences and click the Network icon. To find the Ethernet MAC
address, select Built-in Ethernet from the Show drop-down, then click the Ethernet tab. The
“Ethernet ID” field shows the MAC address. To find the wireless MAC address, select Airport
from the Show drop-down, then click the Airport tab. The “Airport ID” field shows the MAC
address.
Linux: open a shell window and type
/sbin/ifconfig (and press Enter). The wireless
interface is eth1 (unless there is no Ethernet adapter, in which case the interface is eth0).
