Source address learning
If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, the PTP 700 learns the location of end stations from the
source addresses in received management frames. The agent filters transmitted management
frames to ensure that the frame is transmitted at the appropriate Ethernet port, or over the
wireless link as required to reach the reach the correct end station. If the end station address is
unknown, then management traffic is transmitted at each of Ethernet port enabled for
management and over the wireless link.
