Bridge MAC Address Filtering Overview
You can specify static MAC Address filters in Bridge Setup to optimize
the performance and increase security on your wireless (and wired)
network. You can permit or deny access to individual stations by
specifying their particular MAC Addresses, or to multiple stations by
using an X as a wildcard character. You can also permit or deny
Ethernet multicast address all traffic that does not match one of the pairs
explicitly listed in the Ethernet pair list will be permitted or denied based
on your selection.

Stations to be filtered are identified by their MAC Address and whether
they are on a remote or local interface. The Interface parameter indicates
whether the station with the specified MAC Address is located on the
wired or wireless interface of the base station. Use the Add, Delete, and
Edit buttons to modify the entries of the list.
Permit Ethernet Broadcasts-- If you wish to deny broadcast traffic in
your bridged network, deselect this option. Normally, however, you will
select this option to permit Ethernet broadcasts.
Note: This option applies to all Ethernet interfaces, and not simply to
Ethernet traffic.
