RAX48 Access Control Blocking without Authorization

I have enabled access control, but due to problems with some legitimate existing devices getting blocked, I changed the Access Rule to "Allow all new devices to connect." Despite this, my VoIP adapter unknown to me got blocked and voice calling was inop. Two questions:

 

1. Are blocking events logged and can I set an alert to get notified when this happens?

 

2. Is there a solution to this problem besides turning off Access Control?

    Try the logs settings.

     

    Visit the support pages:
