I looked around but didn’t find much info.
Once a unit registers it shows up in the registration table. From there I can copy it to either or both of the lists.
what are the differences and uses of the two lists. Newbie question I know. 
connect list works with station mode
access list works with ap mode
M.
so on the ap once a client is registered I should move them to the access list. what does having a client in the access list or not do? Forgive me as I’m learning as fast as I can.
On the client move them to the connect list.
Once in the connect list they will only connect to the ap specified correct?
The ap access-list is used one of two ways, depending on the “default-authentication” setting in “/interface wireless”.
If default-authentication=yes, then you can block connections from certain mac addresses by using “authentication=no” in the access-list.
If default-authentication=no, you can allow connections from certain mac addresses by using “authentication=yes” in the access-list.
The station connect-list will allow that station to connect only to the aps listed there.
