Filtering

3.Configure the Ethernet Protocol Filter Table. This table is pre-populated with existing Ethernet Protocol Filters, however, you may enter additional filters by specifying the appropriate parameters.

To add an entry, click Add, and then specify the Protocol Number and a Protocol Name.

Protocol Number: Enter the protocol number. See http://www.iana.org/assignments/ethernet-numbersfor a list of protocol numbers.

Protocol Name: Enter related information, typically the protocol name.

To edit or delete an entry, click Edit and change the information, or select Enable, Disable, or Delete from the Status drop-down menu.

An entry’s status must be enabled in order for the protocol to be subject to the filter.

4.Reboot the AP for any changes to the Ethernet Protocol Filter Table to take effect.
