Filtering Examples

The following network examples illustrate how filters may be set to optimize wireless performance. The sample network in Figure 4-3 contains the following:

"Wireless stations using IP.

"A secondary LAN containing IP and IPX hosts, linked by access points (AP) 2 and 4.

"An IPX router connecting to another Novell network.

"DIX and 802.3 SNAP frames.

"NOTE: Many networks use only one Ethernet frame type. DIX is the most common type. Set filters only for the Ethernet frame types found on your network.
