Filter

This is a one-way protocol filtering mechanism that prevents the WAP-5100 from transmitting specified protocols packet from a wired Ethernet LAN into the wireless LAN. If you do not require particular protocols on the wireless part of your network, you can save bandwidth by enabling the protocol filter.

From the Filter window, there are six protocols listed may be selected for filtering out:

∙IP Protocol

∙IPX Protocol

∙NetBEUI Protocol

∙AppleTalk Protocol

∙Other Protocols

∙Internet Multicast Frames
