I have several devices accessing my network wireless and wired. Some are given an ip-address from the AC87s DHCP and others are setup with a static ip. Is it possible to temporarily a block certain device from accessing the network while retaining its ip-address? I like to do this for troubleshooting purposes.

You can use MAC filter for that.
 
Thanks, already solved it, by switching ports on my switch. I saw continuous data traffic on my router, which made me suspicious. Turned out it was my Qnap NAS updating its media library which gets enabled by default after the latest firmware update.
