Configuring And Enabling Ip Filters - Cisco Aironet 1100 Series Installation And Configuration Manual

Chapter 15 Configuring Filters
Configuring Filters Using the Web-Browser Interface
If clients are not filtered immediately, click Reload on the System Configuration page to restart the
access point. To reach the System Configuration page, click System Software on the task menu and then
click System Configuration.
Client devices with blocked MAC addresses cannot send or receive data through the access point, but
Note
they might remain in the Association Table as unauthenticated client devices. Client devices with
blocked MAC addresses disappear from the Association Table when the access point stops monitoring
them, when the access point reboots, or when the clients associate with another access point.

Configuring and Enabling IP Filters

IP filters (IP address, IP protocol, and IP port) prevent or allow the use of specific protocols through the
access point's Ethernet and radio ports, and IP address filters allow or prevent the forwarding of unicast
and multicast packets either sent from or addressed to specific IP addresses. You can create a filter that
passes traffic to all addresses except those you specify, or you can create a filter that blocks traffic to all
addresses except those you specify. You can create filters that contain elements of one, two, or all three
IP filtering methods. You can apply the filters you create to either or both the Ethernet and radio ports
and to either or both incoming and outgoing packets.
Use the IP Filters page to create IP filters for the access point. Figure 15-3 shows the IP Filters page.
