Configuring IP filtering

5

NOTE

Once filter policies have been defined, they can then be applied to traffic on either of the two
access point LAN ports or any of the 16 access point WLANs. The procedure for applying a
filtering policy is the same, as both the LAN1/LAN2 and WLAN screens display the same IP
Filtering sub screen for this operation. For more information, see

“Applying a filter to LAN1,

LAN2 or a WLAN (1-16)”

on page 158.

3. If necessary, select an existing policy and select the Del button to permanently remove the

filtering policy from those available.

4. Click Apply to save any changes to the IP Filtering screen. Navigating away from the screen

without clicking Apply results in all changes to the screens being lost.

5. Click Undo Changes to securely exit the IP Filtering screen without saving your changes.

6. Click Logout to securely exit the Access Point applet. A prompt displays confirming the logout

before the applet is closed.

Applying a filter to LAN1, LAN2 or a WLAN (1-16)

Once filter polices are defined, they must be applied to a LAN or WLAN within the LAN1 or LAN2
screens, or within the WLAN’s New/Edit screens, not from within the main IP Filtering menu.

To apply an existing IP filter policy to LAN1, LAN2 or a WLAN:

1. Display the IP Filtering menu.

From the LAN1 or LAN2 screen:

a. Select Network Configuration -> LAN -> LAN1 (or LAN2) from the Brocade Mobility

7131N-FGR Access Point menu tree.

b. Select the Enable IP Filtering button in the lower, right-hand side of the screen.

c. Select the IP Filtering button.

From the Wireless screen:

origination) addresses than can either be allowed or denied
access to the LAN1, LAN2 or WLAN.

Dst Start

allowed or denied IP packet forwarding. Setting the Dst End value
the same as the Dst Start allows or denies just this address
without defining a range.

Dst End

Providing this address completes a range of destination addresses
than can either be allowed or denied access to the LAN1, LAN2 or
WLAN.
