SMC Networks SMC2555W-AG 5-23

Advanced Configuration

5-23

When VLAN filtering is enabled, the access point must also have

802.1x authentication enabled and a RADIUS server configured.

Wireless clients must also support 802.1x client software to be

assigned to a specific VLAN.

When VLAN filtering is disabled, the access point ignores the

VLAN tags on any received frames.

Local Bridge Filter – Controls wireless-to-wireless

communications between clients through the SMC2555W-AG.

However, it does not affect communications between wireless

clients and the wired network.

•Disable: Allows wireless-to-wireless communications between

clients through the access point.

•Enable: Blocks wireless-to-wireless communications between

clients through the access point.

AP Management Filter – Controls management access to the

SMC2555W-AG from wireless clients. Management interfaces

include the web, Telnet, or SNMP.

•Disable: Allows management access from wireless clients.

•Enable: Blocks management access from wireless clients.

Ethernet Type Filter – Controls checks on the Ethernet type of all

incoming and outgoing Ethernet packets against the protocol

filtering table.

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

•Enable: Access point filters Ethernet protocol types based on

the configuration of protocol types in the filter table. If a

protocol has its status set to “ON,” the protocol is filtered from

the access point.
