according to the general filtering criteria set by the Filter
Options parameter.
Enable– ARP Broadcast messages are transmitted regardless of
the selected value of the Filter Options parameter.
The default selection is Enable.
Other Bridging Parameters
LAN to Wireless Link Bridging Mode (AU only) – Controls the flow
of information from the Ethernet backbone to the wireless media.
The options are:
Reject Unknown – Allows transmission of packets only to
addresses that the AU knows to exist in the wireless link.
Forward Unknown – Allows transmission of all packets, except
those sent to addresses that the AU recognizes as being on its
wired Ethernet side.
The default selection is Forward Unknown.
Bridge Aging Time (AU and SU) – Displays the current value for
bridge aging time for learned addresses of devices on both the wired
and wireless sides (not including BreezeACCESS units), and allows
entry of a new value.
The available range is 100 to 2000 seconds.
The default value is 300 seconds for AUs and for SUs with bridge
functionality (SU-BD and SU-BD1V). For all other SUs it is 1800
seconds.
Broadcast Relaying (AU only) – Determines whether the unit
performs broadcast relaying. When Broadcast Relaying is enabled,
broadcast packets originating in devices on the wireless link are
transmitted by the AU back to the wireless link devices, as well as to
the wired LAN. If disabled, these packets are sent only to the local
wired LAN and are not sent back to the wireless link. Disable
Broadcast Relaying if you are sure that all broadcast messages
from the wireless link will be destined to the wired LAN.
The default selection is Enable.
Unicast Relaying (AU only) – Determines whether the unit performs
Unicast relaying. When Unicast Relaying is enabled, Unicast
packets originating in devices on the wireless link can be
transmitted back to the wireless link devices. If this parameter is
disabled, these packets are not sent to the wireless link even if they
are intended for devices on the wireless link. Disable Unicast
Relaying only if you know that all unicast messages from the
wireless link will be destined to the local wired LAN.
The default selection is Enable.
