Layer 2 Filtering

DSL-604+ ADSL Ethernet Router User’s Guide

Layer 2 Filtering

The Layer 2 Filter function of the Router can be configured to drop a number of packets types as they are encountered on either interface. This is especially useful is the Router is configured to operate as a simple bridge.

The packet types that can be filtered are the following:

ARP

PPPoE

IP Multicast

IPv6 Multicast

IP Broadcast (blocked by default)

RARP (blocked by default)

IPX

NetBEUI

Appletalk

IEEE 802.1Q packets (blocked by default)

Bridge Management Information

A check mark in the box indicates the packet type will be passed. Any packet types that are not checked will be dropped by the Router. Select the packet type you want to allow to pass and click the OK button.
