Filtering protocols and ports
You can filter (block) specified protocols and ports from leaving the AP and SM and entering the network. This
protects the network from both intended and inadvertent packet loading or probing by network users. By keeping
the specified protocols or ports off the network, this feature also provides a level of protection to users from each
other.
Protocol and port filtering is set per AP/SM. Except for filtering of SNMP ports, filtering occurs as packets leave
the AP/SM. If an SM is configured to filter SNMP, then SNMP packets are blocked from entering the SM and,
thereby, from interacting with the SNMP portion of the protocol stack on the SM.
