Flood Register

As the designated bridge for this secondary Ethernet LAN,

the access point can register the type of frames it expects to

flood — unicast, multicast, or both. This information is

registered with other access points. Setting [Global

Flooding] settings in the super root overrides individual

Flood Register settings in designated bridges.
Flood Register settings are:

Disabled
Multicast
Unicast
Enabled

" NOTE:

Set the same Flood Register setting in any access point that is a

candidate to become the designated bridge for a secondary Ethernet

LAN.
