•MAC Address: Specifies a MAC address to filter, in the form xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.

•Permission: Adds or deletes a MAC address from the filtering table.

Ethernet Type Filter – Controls checks on the Ethernet type of all incoming and outgoing Ethernet packets against the protocol filtering table. (Default: Disabled)

•Disabled: Access point does not filter Ethernet protocol types.

•Enabled: Access point filters Ethernet protocol types based on the configuration of protocol types in the filter table. If the status of a protocol is set to “ON,” the protocol is filtered from the access point.

Note: Ethernet protocol types not listed in the filtering table are always forwarded by the access point.

Ethernet Type Filter – Enables or disables Ethernet filtering on the port. (Default: Disabled)

CLI Commands for Bridge Filtering – Use the filter local-bridgecommand from the global configuration mode to prevent wireless-to-wireless communications through the access point. Use the filter ap-managecommand to restrict management access from wireless clients. To configure Ethernet protocol filtering, use the filter ethernet-type enable command to enable filtering and the filter ethernet-type protocol command to define the protocols that you want to filter. To remove an entry from the table, use the address filter delete command. To display the current settings, use the show filters command from the Exec mode.
