Filtering
Avaya Wireless AP-4 /5/6 User’s Guide 4-85
For example, you can set up a Static MAC filter to prevent wireless clients
from communicating with a specific server on the Ethernet network. You
can also use this filter to block unnecessary multicast packets from being
forwarded to the wireless network.
NOTE:
The Static MAC Filter is an advanced feature. You may find it easier
to control wireless traffic via other filtering options, such as Ethernet
Protocol Filtering.
Each static MAC entry contains the following fields:
• Wired MAC Address
• Wired Mask
• Wireless MAC Address
• Wireless Mask
• Comment: This field is optional.
Each MAC Address or Mask is comprised of 12 hexadecimal digits (0-9,
A-F) that correspond to a 48-bit identifier. (Each hexadecimal digit
represents 4 bits (0 or 1).)
