There are a few ways; all of them related to using policies.

First, by requiring authentication you can allow/deny users access to use WinGate. This is the easiest option but can inconvenience users that are allowed to freely use the internet.

Another alternative is to block by MAC address. You can use a Client MAC address advanced filter in the default (System) policies. That way, certain MAC addresses will not be allowed access to the internet through WinGate, but regular users will be unaffected.
