The next tab on the dialog box is Filter (Figure 13). This is a one-way protocol
filtering mechanism that prevents the AP from transmitting specified protocols
from a wired Ethernet LAN into the wireless LAN. If you do not require particular
protocols on the wireless part of your network, you can save bandwidth by
enabling the protocol filter.

Figure 13. Configuration/Filter

From the Filter card, some, all, or none of the protocols listed may be selected for
