BreezeACCESS 4900 162 System Manual
 In the case of a Deny list, if the MAC address is included in the list, the SU will
be able to associate itself with the AU but will not be able to generate traffic;
otherwise (if the address is not found in the list) the SU will be associated and
will be able to generate traffic.
Possible options for this parameter are Deny and Allow.
The default is Deny.
4.2.6.4.7.4 Station Allowed Option
Set this parameter to Enable to allow any SU (regardless of its' MAC address to try
associating with the AU). Set it to Disable to allow only SUs whose MAC address
starts with 00-10-E7 to try associating with the AU.
The default is Enabled.
4.2.6.4.7.5 Show MAC Address List
Select Show MAC Address List to display the current list of MAC Addresses
included in the List and the selected List Action.
4.2.6.4.8 Roaming Option (SU only)
The Roaming Option defines the roaming support of the unit. When roaming is
not expected, it is preferable to set this parameter to Disable. This will cause the
unit to start scanning for another AU after losing connectivity with the current AU
only after 7 seconds during which no beacons were received from the current AU.
This will prevent scanning for another AU in cases where no beacons were
received due to a short temporary problem.
When set to Enable, the SU will wait only one second before it starts scanning for
another AU. In addition, when the Roaming Option is enabled, the SU will send
Roaming SNAP messages upon associating with a new AU. This enables fast
distribution of the new location for all clients that are behind the SU. In this case,
the SU will send multicast SNAP messages via the wireless link each time it
associates with a new AU, except for the first association after reset. The SU will
send one SNAP message for each client learned on its Ethernet port, based on its
bridging table. In the SNAP message the clients' MAC address is used as the
source address. The AU that receives this SNAP message learns from it the new
location of the clients. It forwards the SNAP to other AUs and Layer-2 networking
equipment via its Ethernet port, to facilitate uninterrupted connectivity and
correct routing of transmissions to these clients. The new AU as well as the
previous AU with which the SU was associated, will forward the SNAP messages to
all other SUs associated with them.
The default is Disable.
