Local Packet Filtering: When Local Packet Filtering is Enabled, the bridge learns the
source MAC addresses of devices transmitting Ethernet packets on the local Ethernet
network, and only bridges packets to the remote unit if the destination MAC address has not
been learned as a 'local' device. When Local Packet Filtering is ‘Disabled’ the bridge does
not learn the source MAC addresses of devices transmitting Ethernet packets on the local
Ethernet network, and bridges ALL Ethernet packets received to the remote unit. Local
Packet Filtering should be disabled when external Ethernet switching hardware or a router is
present. The default setting for Local Packet Filtering is disabled.
All of the above attributes are non-volatile, once set they will be used by the unit even after a
power on reboot. A number of attributes, such as IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP
Address and VLAN settings will require a reboot before they are used. If any of these
attributes are changed a reboot screen appears asking the user to verify the reboot (Figure
32 or Figure 33).
