5.8.6 Packet Forwarding
Packet Forwarding is the process of relaying the data packets, through a pre-configured gateway (connected to the AP
device either through ethernet or WDS interface). On receiving the traffic (uplink) from the wireless clients, the AP device
forwards the traffic to the destined gateway, by tagging it with the gateway MAC address. The gateway device (configured
according to the user requirement) monitors the uplink traffic, for improved security.
Navigate to CONFIGURATION > Filters > Packet Forwarding. The Packet Forwarding screen appears.

Represents the type of interface to which filters are applied. The Storm Threshold filter can
be used to filter the traffic on either ethernet interface or wireless interface.
By default, Storm Threshold filtering is disabled on both ethernet and wireless interfaces.
Specifies the threshold value of the multicast packets to be processed for the ethernet or
wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold value for
multicast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled.
The default Multicast Threshold value is 0 per second. To configure, enter a value ranging
from 0 to 65536.
Specifies the threshold value of the broadcast packets to be processed for the ethernet or
wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold value for
broadcast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled.
The default Broadcast Threshold value is 0 per second. To configure, enter a value ranging
from 0 to 65536.
