Can anyone direct me I am trying to find an application that allows me to manage my Airport Extreme. Allowing me to put restrictions on printer, drive, and shared files. I am used to using Cisco products and figured this would be more user friendly but I a bit mistaken.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
The primary application used to administer the AirPort base stations is the AirPort Utility. This utility is part of OS X. You can also download various versions of the utility directly from Apple here.

I have that installed but want more control than I have. I would also like to be able to add permissions to my resources such as the drive and printer. Is this router capable of that or do I need a different one?
The AirPorts only have limited permissions controls as far as for sharing HDDs and/or printers. The AirPort Utility provides access to each that is available. If you need more detailed permissions control, you would have to go with a different router manufacturer.
