In a Bridge Link Record, Pass (or Block) tells the system to check the MAC Address Filter Table to find out what filtering to perform. If the Bridge Link Record specified None, then the frame would pass without any filtering.

If the frame MAC Address is in the MAC Address Filter Table, filtering is performed on the frame as specified in this table. The MAC Address Filter Table used in this example specifies the filtering to be performed on MAC Address A as the incoming source address to the bridge. Frames with Incoming Source Address A are passed at link 1 (see Figure 32). Frames with Outgoing Source Address A are passed at link 5 (to server B), but not passed on link 6 (to server C).
